For Pele, for Hiiaka the land—

This solid ground that swings and floats

Beneath the o’erhanging arch of heaven.

At Ana-kú once met the gods; the road

Thither lay through Ha-ámo;—but now,

Its drum is dismantled, its fence o’erleaped;

The terrace trampled, a litter of straw,

Champed sugar-cane, heaped odds and ends;

A spread for mats; a clutter of dishes;

There’s dipping of water, serving of food.—
