Ka kī atu a Tū-rāhui, “He aroha ōku ki tā tāua tamaiti me taku titiro ake ki te rā e whanake nei i te huapae o te moana; ka toko ake te aroha i a au, koia e tangi nei ahau.” (JPS 1913:176). / Tū-rāhui replied, “On account of my affection for our child, and because on seeing the sun rise on the sea horizon, love welled up in me, that is the reason I am crying.”
