Although not a trained soldier at the time of Rorke's Drift, the Zulu warrior was nonetheless a dangerous adversary. All Zulu men were obligated to serve in the military from the age of 19 until they were 40, however the Zulus were a citizen army that was called up during times of war. Each regiment had unique distinguishing characteristics, like as jewelry or a distinctive headgear. Zulus carried two spears: a throwing spear with a 7-inch blade on a 3-foot shaft and a hefty broad-bladed stabbing spear with an 18-inch blade that was nearly 2-inches wide (in some ways comparable to the Roman Gladius). They used enormous, color-coded cowhide shields, with younger regiments having predominantly black shields and senior regiments having mostly white shields. This made it simple for a Zulu commander to recognize the various forces on the battlefield.Contrary to common belief, the Zulus also employed firearms, including Martini Henry rifles taken from British forces as well as Napoleonic weaponry purchased from dealers. With each regiment having companies, its own Izinduna or commanders, and a clear chain of command, the warriors were well organized and disciplined. Unlike a European Army of the period, they did not have a baggage train, therefore they could move quickly and were quite mobile.

The Second Secretary told his young acquaintance Austin Ford, the New York Republic's London reporter, a state secret. A scenario for such an adventure was established on Sowell Street. The steps were broken and uncleaned, and the soot-stained cracked and neglected stucco house fronts gave the area a terrible appearance. A girl who claimed to live on the west side of the street and, according to her, in an upper story, posted a message on the door of a home on Sowell Street. The man who picked up the message claimed to have found it in the middle of the block, opposite the residences. Cuthbert observed Ford enter Dr. Prothero's home, see him move to the side, observe Ford leave the residence, and observe the door shut behind him. As Ford scurried about his prison's perimeter on tiptoe, looking for intruders, Miss Dale's eyes were glued to the windows. The three sharpshooters were firing point-blank at the windows from which Prothero and Pearsall were fighting their battle to the death with an as little caution as though confronting the butts at a rifle range. They appeared to be standing in front of a large grandstand that was filled with an army of ghosts while on a racetrack at night.

Olivia Loudwater possessed the same girl in the picture's soft, dark, dreamy eyes, straight, delicate nose, attractive lips, and faint, precisely curling eyebrows. The enigmatic, alluring, lingering smile that probably best characterizes Luini's ladies was almost always there when Lord Loudwater wasn't around.

Francis Bacon has a rarest confluence of excellent qualities ever bestowed upon a human brain. His initial and never-ending love throughout his entire life was the passionate and glorious aspiration for knowledge. And yet, it wasn't just a miserable existence; it was a life of poverty.

It appears that he lived by the guiding principle of his natural philosophy, parendo vincitur. He experienced a sense of being engulfed by powerful forces in both the moral and physical realms, powerless against direct confrontation. His first lesson on nature is that it must be conquered by paying attention to its inclinations and requirements. He was sent to Cambridge at the age of twelve and placed under Whitgift at Trinity. When Bacon was just 16 years old, he was accepted into Gray's Inn's Society of "Ancients." He travelled to France as a member of Sir Amyas Paulet's household, the Queen's ambassador.
