Ah! that god, that bad god!

Inexpressibly bad, my child!

. . . . . .

Thou hast entered the expanse;

And wilt visit 'the land of red parrot feathers,'

Where Oārangi was once a guest.

Thou feedest now on ocean spray,

And sippest fresh water out of the rocks,

Travelling over rugged cliffs,

To the music of murmuring billows.
