ʻOku tau faʻa lau ʻi he Fuakava Foʻoú naʻe “ʻofa mamahi”3 ʻa Kalaisi ki he kakaí Heʻene feau ʻenau fie maʻú. Naʻá Ne manavaʻofa he mamata ne nau fiekaiá peá Ne fafanga kinautolu, pe taimi ne nau puke aí ʻo Ne fakamoʻui kinautolu pe taimi ne nau fie maʻu ai ha tupulaki fakalaumālié, peá Ne akoʻi kinautolu.

Kuo kole mai e Fakamoʻuí kiate kitautolu ke tau fai e ngaahi meʻa kuó Ne faí,4 ke fefuaʻaki ʻetau ngaahi kavengá, ke fakafiemālieʻi ʻa kinautolu ʻoku ʻaonga ki ai ʻa e fakafiemālié, ke tangi fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoku tangí,5 ke fafanga ʻa e fiekaiá, ʻaʻahi ki he mahakí,6 ke tokoniʻi ʻa e vaivaí, hiki hake ʻa e ngaahi nima ʻoku tautau ki laló,7 pea ke “feakoʻiʻaki ʻiate kimoutolu ʻa e tokāteline ʻo e puleʻangá.”8 Kiate au, ʻoku fakamatalaʻi ʻe he ngaahi lea mo e ngaahi ngāue ko ʻení ʻa e kau faiako ʻaʻahí—ʻa kinautolu ʻoku tokoni ki he niʻihi kehé.
ʻOku ʻoange ʻe he faiako ʻaʻahí ki he kau fafiné ʻa e faingamālie ke fetokangaʻiʻaki, fefakamālohiaʻaki mo feakoʻiʻaki. Hangē ko ha akonaki ʻi he Lakanga Taulaʻeiki Faka-ʻĒloné ʻoku fakafatongiaʻaki hono “leʻohi ʻa e Siasí maʻu ai pē” pea “ke ne ʻiate kinautolu mo fakamālohia ʻa kinautolu,”9 ʻoku fakahaaʻi foki ʻe ha faiako ʻaʻahi ʻene ʻofá ʻaki ʻene fakakaukauʻi ʻi he faʻa lotu e fefine takitaha ʻoku ui ia ke ne tokoniʻí.
