SONGS—
apropos of Nihi-aumoe: Look to your ways in upland Puna 94
at the first _hula_ 8
composed by Kamehameha II 69
divisions of 58
epithalamium, for the _hula ki’i_: Wanahili bides the
whole night with Manu’a 101
for interlude: Kane is drunken with awa 130
for the—
_hula ala’a-papa_—
A mackerel sky, time for foul weather 70
From mountain retreat and root-woven ladder 64
Haunt of white tropic-bird 67
Heaven-magic fetch a Hilo pour 66
Keaau is a long strip of wildwood 62
Keaau shelters, Waiakea lies in the calm 61
Look now, Waialua, land clothed with ocean mist 60
Love is at play in the grove 71
Love tousled Waimea with shafts of the wind 69
Puna plies paddle night-long in the storm 70
’Twas in Koolau I met with the rain 59
_hula hoonaná_: She is limed, she is limed 245
_hula íliíli_: We twain were lodged in Waipi’o 120
_hula ilio_: Look forth, god Ku, look forth! 225
_hula kaekeeke_: It was in Hamakua 123
Kahiki-nui, land of wind-driven smoke 125
_hula ka-laau_: Kalakaua, a great name 117
The cloud-piles o’er Kona’s sea 118
_hula kielei_: Perilous, steep is the climb to Hanalei
woods 211
_hula ki’i_—
Let’s worship now the bird-cage 99
Now for the dance 98
Oh Wewehi, la, la! 95
Point to a dark one 97
The mountain walls of Kalalau 102
The roof is a-dry, la, la! 96
_hula kilu_—
Comrade mine in the robe-stripping gusts of Lalau 241
Engulfed in heaven’s abyss 243
Kanaloa tints heaven with a blush 242
Misty and dim, a bush in the wilds of Kapa’a 237
Red glows Kala’e through the wind-blown dust 239
The sun-furrow gleams at the back of Lehua 238
_hula kolani_: Lo, the rain, the rain! 217
_hula kolea_: A plover at the full of the sea 220
