* MARTLET: The Martlets mean the number of defeated enemies and are the distinctive mark of the fourth son.

* PIGEON: The Pigeon is a symbol of Health; in the coat of arms it denotes Fidelity and Love. It is the emblem of the Third Person of the Holy Trinity and, as such, adorns the currency of the French Order of the Holy Spirit.
