Sailing Across the Lagoon to his Station
The Man Tematau Came to the Door
Met Me With Outstretched Hand
Hand Shot out and Grasped Me by the Throat
Krause Lay on his Back in the Centre of The Room
Directed My Steps Towards the Great Open-sided Moniep
Fishing As if Nothing Unusual Had Occurred
I Spread the Chart out on The Table
I Hurried Down to the Beach

Accompanied by Thirty Or Forty Canoes
Began Their Flying-fish Catching
She Came Boldly on
How We Escaped Broaching to
I Could Not But Admire and Envy
Carrying Nets and Fish Baskets
I Waited Until My Hand Was a Bit Steady

Saw a Barque Lying on the Reef
He Had Sailed
At Last We Reached the Ship
Lifting Us up on the Summit of Its Awful Crest
