HELLO-O-O-O RE-E-E-NATA!

The Maori of New Zealand are not like the natives of India. It is said that when the Prince of Wales (the present King) arrived at Ceylon, the leaders of that people were unresponsive and did not honour the son of the Queen of England, whereas we, even though the Duke was still far away, were determined to see his face. Having seen his face and shaken his hand, when the Duke is enthroned as king a person will be able say in his time that he met the king.
