Te Tiki, i mea mai, kaore i tino mararna i au te patai a te mema nei, engari ki taku mohio e tono ana pea, a Mohi Tawhai kia kaua e waiho a Pe whairangi, a Mangonui, a Hokianga hei Takiwa Raihana Maori. Kaore aku kupu whakahoki atu inaianei mo taua tono, eagari me ata whiriwhiri e au taua tikanga, kei reira ka utu ai e au to patai a te Mema nei.
