Ka ne haʻu ki hoku ʻatamai taʻu valú ha meʻa ne u pehē ko e founga tonu tahá ia. Naʻá ku talange leva kia Teni, “Ko e meʻa pē ʻoku fie maʻú, ke ta tutuʻi ʻa e vao ko ʻení. Ta tutuʻi pē ha foʻi siakale ʻi he vaó!” Naʻá ne loto lelei ki ai, peá u lele leva ki homau falé ke ʻomi ha ngaahi foʻi masi.

Naʻe fakahā mahino ia ʻe Samuela ʻi he ngaahi senituli kuo hilí ki ha toʻu tangata naʻe akoʻi lahi ʻi he feilaulau ʻaki e monumanú: “ʻOku lelei lahi ʻa e talangofuá ʻi he feilaulaú, [pe] ko e fakafanongó ʻi he ngako ʻo e fanga sipi tangatá.”3
ʻI he kuonga fakakosipelí ni, ne fakahā ai ʻe he ʻEikí ki he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmitá ʻokú Ne fie maʻu “ʻa e loto mo e ʻatamai fie faí; pea ʻe kai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa lelei ʻo e fonua ko Saioné ʻe he kau loto fie faí mo e kau talangofuá ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho fakaʻosi ko ʻení.”4
Naʻe ʻilo ʻe he kau palōfita kotoa pē, ʻi onoʻahó mo onopōní, ʻoku mahuʻinga ʻa e talangofuá ki hotau fakamoʻuí. Naʻe fakahā ʻe Nīfai, “Te u ʻalu ʻo fai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa kuo fekau ʻe he ʻEikí.”5 Neongo naʻe vaivai e toengá ʻi heʻenau tuí mo ʻenau talangofuá, ka ne ʻikai teitei tōnounou tuʻotaha ʻa Nīfai ke fai e meʻa naʻe fie maʻu ʻe he ʻEikí mei aí.

Ko ha fakamatala ongo ʻe taha ʻo e talangofuá ʻa e talanoa ʻo ʻĒpalahame mo ʻAisaké. Mahalo naʻe faingataʻa fau kia ʻĒpalahame, ʻi heʻene talangofua ki he fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá, ke ʻave hono ʻofaʻanga ko ʻAisaké ki he fonua ko Mōlaiá ke ʻoatu ia ko ha feilaulau. ʻE lava ʻapē ke tau fakakaukaua e mafatukituki e loto ʻo ʻĒpalahamé heʻene fononga ki he feituʻu ne talá? ʻOku pau naʻe kapu hono sinó ʻe he loto mamahí mo fakamamahiʻi hono ʻatamaí ʻi heʻene haʻi ʻa ʻAisake, fakatokoto he funga ʻesi feilaulaú, pea toʻo ʻa e helé ke fakapoongi iá. Naʻe talangofua ki he fekau ʻa e ʻEikí ʻi he tui taʻe-ueʻia mo e loto falala ki he ʻEikí.
