crusader

English

crusader (plural crusaders)

A person engaged in a crusade.
- 1907, Harold Bindloss, chapter 20, in The Dust of Conflict‎:
  Tony's face expressed relief, and Nettie sat silent for a moment until the vicar said “It was a generous impulse, but it may have been a momentary one, while in the case of monk and crusader there must have been a sustaining purpose, and possibly a great abnegation, a leaving of lands and possessions.”
