Rangahua, here thou art kneel within, lie stretched out,
The blow-flies buzz. The maggots crawl
let him be cast out to the place of the glow-worms.
Swarm upon him, O spirits from the sky Swarm upon him, O spirits of the earth!
Let him be / cast to the deepest depths to the darkness / for eternity That Death may / gather him up Seize the soul / of my victim reduced to nothingness
He sways and staggers, in the midst of fire and smoke. gripped by demons, then released, shrunken....powerless
Cry to your fathers, beg to your gods! Let your lips be drawn back from your teeth, A grinning skull of terror
your eyes wildly glare! You are cast to the night, into the pit.… Thrust him down, O Rangi [Sky]! Immerse him in the depths, O Papa [Earth]! Let him not appear again in the light of this world
Darkness of death envelops you! The sun of life shines forth on me
