Call It Courage
IT HAPPENED many years ago, before the traders and missionaries first came
into the South Seas, while the Polynesians were still great in numbers and
fierce of heart. But even today the people of Hikueru sing this story in their
chants and tell it over the evening fires. It is the story of Mafatu, the Boy Who
Was Afraid.
They worshiped courage, those early Polynesians. The spirit which had urged
them across the Pacific in their sailing canoes, before the dawn of recorded
history, not knowing where they were going nor caring what their fate might
be, still sang its song of danger in their blood. There was only courage. A man
who was afraid--what place had he in their midst and the boy Mafatu – son of
Tavana Nui, the Great Chief of Hikueru--always had been afraid. So the people
drove him forth. Not by violence, but by indifference.
Mafatu went out alone to face the thing he feared the most. And the people of
Hikueru still sing his story in their chants and tell it over the evening fires.
It was the sea that Mafatu feared. He had been surrounded by it ever since he
was born The thunder of it filled his ears; the crash of it upon the reef, the
mutter of it at sunset, the threat and fury of its storms--on every hand, wherever
he turned--the sea.
He could not remember when the fear of it first had taken hold of him. Perhaps
it was during the great hurricane which swept Hikueru when he was a child of
three. Even now, twelve years later, Mafatu could remember that terrible
morning. His mother had taken him out to the barrier-reef to search for sea
urchins in the reef pools. There were other canoes scattered at wide intervals
along the reef.
