Farewell to Hawaiki

Family by family they embarked, taking great

store of seeds of kumara,[16] karaka[17] berries and gourds, together with pukeko,[18] dogs, and rats. Thus they set sail in company from the land of their birth.

Yet by the grace of Atua they all came safe to the land which Maui had fished up from the sea.
