Mēnā kei te pirangi kē te kōtiro ki ēnei pikitia me ngā ataata, kua reri tana Topanga hei whakamahi mo tana kaupapa. A he nui ake te tika o te papa hoia ki a ia i era atu. Ka kite ia i tana pikinga mai i tana tikaokao, he kaha te ngote me te apo. Ko te kopikopiko i a ia me te whakanoho i a ia ki runga - ka peia e te tangata te raka tae noa ki ana poi. Ko taua kotiro i roto i te whare he manaakitanga atua. Kia kaha tana mahi ki te whakapakari i te whanau.
He tino ataahua, he harakore tona kanohi, engari e kore e taea e ia te ngote tike! A ehara i te mea kaore ia e eke ki a ia, engari he kore wheako! A, mo te taha o mua - he tino pai te whakawhanaketanga, he pai noa iho tana mahi! He wahine wera ia, e aroha ana ahau ki tera momo kotiro.
