pule

This was accomplished by the utterance of a pule hoo-noa, a tabu-lifting prayer.

The priesthood, properly so called (Kahuna maoli, Kahuna pule), was hereditary.

He then coost it into the deep pule below, making the flee skim alang the top o' the water, as skeelfully as onything ye ever saw.

But we are in bad case; for see, on the one side comes Pule-o-Vaitafe, and on the other Tamavili.

Here also is another pule hoo-noa, a prayer-song addressed to Laka, an intercession for the lifting of the tabu.
