- "There were poor girls, completely naked, hanging from tree branches, hands tied
behind their backs, after having been raped. It was fortunate that, with the Blues
[Republicans] gone, some charitable passersby delivered them from this shameful
torment. Elsewhere, in a refinement of barbarism, perhaps without precedent,
pregnant women were stretched out and crushed beneath wine presses....Bloody
limbs and nursing infants were carried in triumph on the points of bayonets." – Account of the war by a Vendean abbé (en)
