     summary: Christian shall join hands between Gentile and Jew; grim Dante forget his Infernos, and shake sides with fat Rabelais; and monk Luther, over a flagon of old nectar, talk over old times with Pope Leo. In old times of genii and giants, there dwelt in barren lands, not very remote from our outer reef, but since submerged, a band of evil-minded, envious goblins, furlongs in stature, and with immeasurable arms; who from time to time cast covetous glances upon our blooming isles.

     summary: Then at last Felix managed to fling the child across the line, to push Muriel with one hand at arm's-length before him, and to rush himself within the sacred circle. The men bowed down once more and repeated humbly, You shall have victims as you will, great god; only give us yam and taro and bread-fruit, and cause not your bright light, the sun, to grow dark in heaven over us.

     summary: The place is thriving, for steam frequents it; and on the curving quay are piled mountains of English coals, enormous heaps of wheat, great stacks of _pisco_, and _italia_ jars, where Haserac, the celebrated captain, might have concealed an army of thieves with impunity. The lady of the mansion was a fine-looking, although _passée_ person, who presided at table d'hôte in _grand tenu_, and served coffee and _italia_ for _chasse_, with a little dessert of _monté_, if called for in the evening, at a side-table.

     summary: The fire god agreed to give Maui fire if he would permit himself to be tossed into the sky by the god's strong arms. It can very easily be supposed that a legend of the Hina connected with the demi-god Maui might be given during the course of centuries to the other Hina, the mother of Huna.

     summary: Majestic-looking chiefs whose fathers had hurled the battle-club, and old men who had seen sacrifices smoking upon the altars of Oro, were there. Beside this, the men--with here and there an exception--will only ship for one cruise, thus becoming entitled to a discharge before the vessel reaches home; which, in time, creates the necessity of obtaining other men, at a similar cost.

     summary: On the occasion of great feasts or celebrations, where large crowds are present, it is customary to dance the _siva_ out-of-doors and in the daytime. It is at this point in the original _kava_ ceremony that the _taupo_ proceeded to masticate the bits of root and stem to a proper consistency to be dissolved in water, but this part of the recipe is no longer followed amongst the enlightened natives of the coastal villages, to whom the risks of spreading infection by such a practice have been thoroughly brought home.
