[SR: 10691284], Paperback, [EAN: 9781230076010], RareBooksClub.com, RareBooksClub.com, Book, [PU: RareBooksClub.com], RareBooksClub.com, This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1827 edition. Excerpt: ...very imperfectly understood, and, no doubt, mixed up with a great deal of invention and dead; but it is not often that such visits are made, owing to the difficulty of the ascent. In the estimation of the romantic, however, it is amply repaid by the rich and extensive scenery on every side, whilst the murmuring of the waves, breaking upon the rocks below, soothes the mind with a pleasing melancholy easier to be conceived than described. The effect which this works upon the minds of the natives will be more easily understood when we see a sample of their descriptive songs, which in language, like that of Ossian, are plaintive and pathetic. In the first place, however, it is necessary to state a few particulars relative to this romantic and diversified spot, that certain passages of the ensuing song may be better understood. On the right of the wood of tamanoo trees there is another wood, consisting almost wholly of toa trees. Here the natives frequently resort to rinse themselves with the fresh water found in the hollows, between the junctions of the large branches or limbs that come off immediately from the trunk, after having bathed themselves in the sea; for the salt water, without using such rinsing afterwards, is apt to produce, in hot climates, a cutaneous eruption. Besides which, the fresh water prevents that uneasy sensation of hoat in the skin upon a little exertion, attended with a clamminess; and sometimes, on the contrary, with a profuse perspiration. Here also they plait flowers which they have gathered at Matawto (about a mile farther along the beach), which the women put round their necks or take home to the mooa, and present to their lovers or their friends, or to superior chiefs. The following song is very often sung by..., 5035, World, 15812171, Civilization & Culture, 3825131, Expeditions & Discoveries, 4992, Jewish, 11764653011, Maritime History & Piracy, 6343224011, Religious, 16244141, Slavery & Emancipation, 15812211, Women in History, 9, History, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 11235, Cultural, 11233, Anthropology, 3377866011, Politics & Social Sciences, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books<
