Raveae saves his life from the idolaters, A scene from the Battle of Te Feipī, November 12, 1815. Raveae saves his life from the idolaters and death of Upufara [ Depicting Raveae killing an assailant from behind, who was trying to avenge the death of Upufara, the leader of the pagan Tahitian force. The scene is explained on [ Page 150]:
One of Mahine's men, Raveae, pierced the body of Upufara, the chief of Papara, and the commander-in-chief of the idolatrous forces. The wounded warrior fell, and shortly afterwards expired. As he sat gasping on the sand, his friends gathered round, and endeavoured to stop the bleeding of the wound, and afford every assistance his circumstances appeared to require. “Leave me,” said the dying warrior; “mark yonder man, in front of Mahine's ranks; he inflicted this wound; on him revenge my death.” Two or three athletic men instantly set off for that purpose. Raveae was retiring towards the main body of Mahine's men, when one of the idolaters, who had outrun his companions, sprang upon him before he was aware of his approach. Unable to throw him on the sand, he cast his arms around his neck, and endeavoured to strangle, or at least to secure his prey, until some of his companions should arrive, and despatch him. Raveae was armed with a short musket, which he had reloaded since wounding the chief; of this, it is supposed, the man who held him was unconscious. Extending his arms forward, Raveae passed the muzzle of his musket under his own arm, suddenly turned his body on one side, and, pulling the trigger of his piece at the same instant, shot his antagonist through the body, who immediately lost hold of his prey, and fell dying to the ground., A scene from the Battle of Te Feipī, by William Ellis, Raveae killing an assailant from behind (who was trying to avenge the death of Opuhara) during the Battle of Te Feipī on 12 November 1815 – an engraved scene by William Ellis, 1815

ラヴェエは偶像崇拝者から命を救った。テ・フェイピーの戦いの場面、1815年11月12日。ラベアは偶像崇拝者から命を救い、異教徒のタヒチの指導者ウプファーラの死に復讐しようとしたラベアを背後から殺す。場面は[150ページ]、マヒネの部下の1人であるラヴィアエが、パパラの首長で偶像崇拝軍の最高司令官であるウプファーラの遺体を突き刺したと説明されている。負傷した戦士は倒れ、その後まもなく失効した。砂の上に座ると、友人たちが集まり、傷の出血を止めることに努力し、状況に応じてあらゆる援助を払うように努めた。「私を解放せよ」と瀕死の戦士は言った。「マーク・ヨンダー・マン、マヒネの階級の前。彼はこの傷を負わせた。彼には私の死への復讐があった」その目的のために運動選手2、3人が即出発した。ラヴィアはマヒネの部下のメインボディに向かって引退していたが、仲間を凌駕していた偶像崇拝者の1人が彼のアプローチを知ってから彼に襲い掛かった。砂の上に投げることができず、首に腕を投げつけ、仲間が来るまで、首を絞め、または少なくとも獲物を確保するために努力し、彼を遠ざけました。ラベアは、首長を負傷させた後、リロードした短いマスケット銃で武装していたが、その銃を持っていた男は意識を失っていたと考えられている。ラベアは腕を前に伸ばし、銃の銃口を自分の腕の下を通り、突然体を横に向け、同時に銃の引き金を引いて敵を体に撃ち、すぐに獲物の掴み物を失い、地面に倒れた。ウィリアム・エリスによるテ・フェイピーの戦いのシーンで、ラベアが後ろから襲撃者を殺している。1815年11月12日のテ・フェイピーの戦いで、ラベアはオプハラの復讐を試みている。
