As these people, when they see occasion, can add little extempore pieces to their entertainments, it is reasonable to imagine, that the representation now described was intended as a satire against the girl, and to discourage others from following her steps.

Such is the sense which they entertain of the propriety of female decorum.
During Captain Cook's stay at Huaheine, breadfruit, cocoa-nuts, and other vegetable productions, were procured in abundance, but not a sufficiency of hogs to supply the daily expense of the ship.

This was partly owing to a want of proper articles for traffic.

The captain was obliged, therefore, to set the smiths at work to make different sorts of nails, iron tools, and instruments, in order to enable him to obtain refreshments at the islands he was yet to visit, and to support his credit and influence among the natives.
When our commander was ready to sail from Huaheine, Oree was the last man that went out of the vessel.

At parting, Captain Cook told him, that they should meet each other no more; at which he wept and said, 'Let your sons come, we will treat them well.' At Ulietea, to which the captain next directed his course, the events that occurred were nearly similar to those which have already been related.
