Again he fell unhurt, and again and again the Fire-god threw him up, until he was quite out of breath.
"Now it is my turn, " said Maui, and he seized the Fire-god, tossed him clear out of sight, and caught him like a ball when he came down.
He did this over and over again, until the poor old Fire-god was quite tired out ; and just as Maui was going to toss him again, he cried out: "Spare me, and I will tell you the secret of mak- ing fire!" So Maui let go of him, and the Fire-god showed [42] TH...E MAQIC JAWBONE him how to make fire by rubbing a piece of hard wood on a softer piece, and putting fine fibre be- tween them to catch the sparks made by the rub- bing.
But Maui was still angry, because he had been obliged to ask so many times before the Fire-god would tell him how to make fire; so he killed the old Fire-god, and, having obtained the secret of making fire by rubbing sticks together, he went back to Earth and taught it to man.
Maui's parents were very angry with him for having killed his ancestor, the Fire-god, and asked if he had buried him.
