Description

"Black Agnes: Lady Agnes Randolph (A.D. 1300?-1369?), wife of Patrick the fourth earl of Dunbar and the second earl of March. In her youth, she fought for the Bruce, but is better remembered for the later defense of her castle. In 1334, Black Agnes daughter of the great Randolf, earl of Moray, successfully held her castle at Dunbar against the besieging forces of England's earl of Salisbury for over five months, despite the unusual number of engineers and elaborate equipment brought against her. After each assault on her fortress, her maids dusted the merlins and crenels, treating her foes and the dreadfuls seige as a tiresome jest. She is celebrated in a folk song attributed to Salisbury: "She kept a stir in tower and trench, That brawling, boisterous Scottish wench, Came I early, came I late I found Agnes at the gate." Sir Walter Scott said, 'From the record of Scottish heroes, none can presume to erase her.' " This is dedicated to Cimerone. Hon no matter how dark things seem there will be brighter days. What life brings us today will be told in stories later. The good and the bad, but its what we do with those times that can make a difference. You never have to go it alone. You always have a shoulder to lean on. *huge hugs* ~Joan of Arc- Daz ~Joan of Arc Addon textures- Daz ~Throne of the Wolfking- Daz Thanks for viewing.
