A word or syllable italicized indicates drum-down-beat. [Page 158] It will be noticed that the stress-accent and the rhythmic accent, marked by the down-beat, very frequently do not coincide. The time marked by the drum-down-beat was strictly accurate throughout. The tune was often pitched on some other key than that in which it is here recorded. This fact was noted when, from time to tune, it was found necessary to have the singer repeat certain passages. The number of measures devoted to the _i’i_, or fluctuation, which is indicated by the wavering line [Illustration:], varied from time to time, even when the singer repeated the same passage. (See remarks on the _i’i_ p. 140.) Redundancies of speech (interpolations) which are in disagreement with the present writer’s text (pp. 155–156) are inclosed in brackets. It will be seen that in the fifth verse he gives the version _Maka’u ke kanaka i ka lehua_ instead of the one given by the author, which is _Maka’u ka Lehua i ke kanaka_. Each version has its advocates, and good arguments are made in favor of each. On reaching the end of a measure that coincided with the close of a rhetorical phrase the singer, Kualii, made haste to snatch, as it were, at the first word or syllable of the succeeding phrase. This is indicated by the word “anticipating,” or “anticipatory”—written _anticip._—placed over the syllable or word thus snatched. It was somewhat puzzling to determine whether the tones which this man sang were related to each other as five and three of the major key, or as three and one of the minor key. Continued and strained attention finally made it seem evident that it was the major key which he intended, i.e., it was f̅ and d̅ in the key of B♭, rather than f̅ and d̅ in the key of D minor.
