Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maori Religion and Mythology: Illustrated by Translations of Traditions, Karakia, &C to Which Are Added Notes on Maori Tenure of Land The others not being sufficiently skilled in writing, it was necessary to take down their information from dictation. In doing this I particularly instructed my informant to tell his tale as if he were relating it to his own people, and to use the same words that he would use if he were recounting similar tales to them when assembled in a sacred house. This they are, or perhaps I should rather say were, in the habit of doing at times of great weather disturbance accompanied with storm of wind and rain, believing an effect to be thereby.
