>>43314370I've got no pic. But Lady Chrystabella Wyndham because she was a fucking badass.
Ok so the TLDR version:
>13,000 Parliament troops v 2000 Royalists + castle.>When Fairfax messenger came to offer terms for the surrender, Lady Wyndham gets her tits out and tells the messenger to “Tell your master that the breasts which gave suck to Prince Charles shall never be at their mercy; we will hold the town to the last.”>Castle Holds.>Cromwell and an aide-de-camp stood on the east side of the River Parrett and viewed the castle with its defences. Hearing that the enemy leaders were in view, Lady Wyndham went up to the castle ramparts with a loaded musket and fired at Cromwell, missing him by some 6 feet but killing his aide-de-camp. She is supposed to have sent a message then to Cromwell asking him if he had received her “love token”, as a gentleman he should return it, in other words challenging him to attack the castle.asking if he received her gift.>Castle falls.>She is arrested.>She escapes.What.... I bet she was a fucking tigress in the sack.
