There was a tyrannical govcn.or at V"a- vaoo, against whom one cd' ti'.e chiefs formed a plan of insurrection ; it was be trayed, and the chiel. wiih all his familv and kir., was ordered to i)e destroyed.— He had a beautiful daughter, betrothed to a thief of higli rank, and she w as in cluded in the sentence. Ti.e \xuth who liad I'ound the cayern, and Iiad kept the s.,‘cret ly iiimseli’. loved this damsel, he told her the danger in time, and persuad ed her to trust herself to him. They got' into a canoe ; the placcoflier retreat w as described to her on the wav to it ; these women swim like mermaids; she dived alter him. and rcjse in the cavern; in the wid( St part it is about 5J ieel, atid.its medium height is guessed at the same, the roof hung with stalactites. Here he brouj^ht her the choicest food, the finest clothing, nr.it.; tV-r her bed,anc' sandal wood oil to prrfuuie herself; hert' he visited her as often as was Cfnsiitent with prudtnce ; and here, as may be. im- agiiied, this Tonga Lct.mlcr \»-ooed and won the maid, v. liom to make the inter est ' oniplete, he had loi,;• loved in secret, when he had no hope.
