Theafter-part of the ship was full of Haoles {6} who had been to visit thevolcano, as their custom is; and the midst was crowded with Kanakas, andthe forepart with wild bulls from Hilo and horses from Kau; but Keawe satapart from all in his sorrow, and watched for the house of Kiano. Thereit sat, low upon the shore in the black rocks, and shaded by the cocoapalms, and there by the door was a red holoku, no greater than a fly, andgoing to and fro with a fly’s busyness. “Ah, queen of my heart, ” ...hecried, “I’ll venture my dear soul to win you!”
Soon after, darkness fell, and the cabins were lit up, and the Haoles satand played at the cards and drank whiskey as their custom is; but Keawewalked the deck all night; and all the next day, as they steamed underthe lee of Maui or of Molokai, he was still pacing to and fro like a wildanimal in a menagerie.
Towards evening they passed Diamond Head, and came to the pier ofHonolulu. Keawe stepped out among the crowd and began to ask for Lopaka.
