ʻOku fakahoko moʻoni ha faikehekehe ʻi heʻetau tōʻonga fakakaukau ki hotau ngaahi fatongia he Siasí.
“ʻOku fie maʻu nai ke u fai ia?”
Kuó ke ʻosi maʻu e fakakaukaú ni kimuʻa? Kuo lahi ha ngaahi taimi kuó u fakakaukau ai ki ai. Pea kuó u ako ko ha fakakaukau ngali taʻemahuʻinga peheé ko ha meʻa-fua mahuʻinga ia ʻo ʻeku tōʻonga fakakaukaú. ʻIo, te tau lava kotoa pē ʻo ala atu pea ngāue fakaetauhi ki he niʻihi kehé, te tau lava ʻo tali mo pukepuke hotau ngaahi uiuiʻi he Siasí, pea te tau lava ʻo maʻu ʻetau ngaahi fakatahaʻanga ʻi he Siasí.

Pea hili ʻeku fakatokangaʻi iá, ʻoku ʻikai ke u toe fie hangē ha Leimana pe Lēmiuelá.
