In the first page of my chapter for describing line Ga4 it was necessary to return to the previous glyph line:

In the times of Gregorius XIII day 216 (ºAugust 4) ought to have marked a cardinal point, beyond which the Sun should become like a Lion:

The head of Hydra was formed from a loop of stars which suggested there should be a kind of knot.

A strong Sign of finality has been drawn at heliacal Ukdah (ι Hydrae, Knot) - but at the back side of the G tablet:

Alphard (α Hydrae), at the neck of the beast and at the top of the mast of Argo Navis, rose with the Sun in August 10 (222). This was the Chinese Star lunar station:

"The king went toward the sea (i.e., toward the southern shore). When he reached Hatinga Te Kohe A Hau Maka, Oroi saw that the king had reached Hatinga Te Kohe. Oroi picked up the rope, took it, and came to the path (which the king had to pass). He made a loop (hakapu) in the rope, covered (the trap) with grass, and took the end of the rope into his hand. He went into a (groove of ) sandalwood. He had hidden there so he could watch the arrival of the king and (at the moment when) the foot (of the king touched the loop) quickly pull the rope. Then Oroi would come out immediately and kill the king.

The terns calmly circled above the king when he arrived. King Hotu came along and reached Te Tingaanga O Te Hereke (literally, 'the meeting place of the dangerous one' ?). King Hotu looked down on the loop of the rope, which was open, as it was lying there, covered with grass. He moved his foot and stepped on the edge of the loop. King Oroi saw that the foot of King Hotu was in the loop and pulled the rope. King Hotu let himself fall to the ground (on purpose). But in doing so, King Hotu firmly stepped with his foot on the rope, which made it taut, so that Oroi would think the following: the foot of King Hotu has entered into (the loop of) the rope. Oroi came out of the sandalwood (grove?), ran very fast, and headed straight for the king to run him through with the needle-sharp bone dagger (ivi heuheu). At that moment, the king cast a spell (tohu) on Oroi, namely:

kikita kikita Turn around as though gripped by a dizzy spell
taviri tavara
ki raro koe and fall to the ground.
ka mate! Die!

Screaming, Oroi fell to the ground, he who had set the trap, and he died." (A part of the last 10 pages in Manuscript E.)
