Ko te take, he hiahia nōna ki te hoki wawe ki te kāinga, mea rawa ake i waihōtia tētahi mauhere me tana hoa wahine ki roto i te ruma manuhiri.

E kore te Tari Whakatika Tāngata e kōrero ana mō wā rātau tikanga, te whakaūtanga ā aua tikanga me ngā mahi nanakia ā ngā āpiha.
I kii ā Richard Symonds, Kaiwhakahaere ō Rimutaka, ae, e tika ana, i hē katoa ngā tikanga heoi kai te whakarite he pūrongo, taaria te wā ka oti.
