Nā Louis de Sainson anō tēnei whakaahua e whakaatu ana i te tūpāpaku o te rangatira. Kua titia te makawe ki te raukura, kua kākahuria ki te korowai, ā, kua whakatūria ki te take o te pou. E haehae ana te tokorua kei mua i ō rāua kiri ki te mata angaanga. He tikanga tūturu tēnei nō te whakamomori. He wā kua miria te pungarehu ki roto kia kore ai e memeha i te kiri. E kī ana te kōrero he tipuna tēnei nō te tā moko.
