John Colenso also included a selection of Zulu proverbs in his Zulu-English Dictionary, first published in 1884. Here are some of those proverbs:
 * "Iqina lipum'embizeni." "The buck has jumped out of the pot (i.e. it has escaped the hunter just when he thought he had it)."
 * "Izubela ladhl'indhlovu." "The wood-shaving killed the elephant (by striking it in the eye; used of a small matter producing a very serious result)."
 * "Aku'mmango ungena'liba." "There is no hill without a grave (i.e. death is everywhere)."
