With respect to the cannibalism which the Tongans occasionallypractised, Mariner says:-- Although a few young ferocious warriors chose to imitate what they considered a mark of courageous fierceness in a neighbouring nation, it was held in disgust by everybody else (vol. Ii. P. 171). That the moral standard of Tongan life was less elevated than thatindicated in the "Book ...of the Covenant" (Exod. Xxi. -xxiii. ) may befreely admitted.
