"
was
the
answer
;
"
see
,
now
is
the
ripe
moment
:
let
us
pluck
it
.
"
As
he
spoke
a
fresh
regiment
rushed
past
the
ring
upon
the
little
mound
,
and
wheeling
round
,
attacked
it
from
the
hither
side
.
Then
,
lifting
his
battle-axe
,
Ignosi
gave
the
signal
to
advance
,
and
,
screaming
the
wild
Kukuana
war-cry
,
the
Buffaloes
charged
home
with
a
rush
like
the
rush
of
the
sea
.
What
followed
immediately
on
this
it
is
out
of
my
power
to
tell
.
All
I
can
remember
is
an
irregular
yet
ordered
advance
,
that
seemed
to
shake
the
ground
;
a
sudden
change
of
front
and
forming
up
on
the
part
of
the
regiment
against
which
the
charge
was
directed
;
then
an
awful
shock
,
a
dull
roar
of
voices
,
and
a
continuous
flashing
of
spears
,
seen
through
a
red
mist
of
blood
.
When
my
mind
cleared
I
found
myself
standing
inside
the
remnant
of
the
Greys
near
the
top
of
the
mound
,
and
just
behind
no
less
a
person
than
Sir
Henry
himself
.
How
I
got
there
I
had
at
the
moment
no
idea
,
but
Sir
Henry
afterwards
told
me
that
I
was
borne
up
by
the
first
furious
charge
of
the
Buffaloes
almost
to
his
feet
,
and
then
left
,
as
they
in
turn
were
pressed
back
.
Thereon
he
dashed
out
of
the
circle
and
dragged
me
into
shelter
.
As
for
the
fight
that
followed
,
who
can
describe
it
?
Again
and
again
the
multitudes
surged
against
our
momentarily
lessening
circle
,
and
again
and
again
we
beat
them
back
.
"
The
stubborn
spearmen
still
made
good
The
dark
impenetrable
wood
,
Each
stepping
where
his
comrade
stood
The
instant
that
he
fell
,
"
