* RAVEN: The Raven is a symbol of the Bold and Courageous Spirit that risks itself in defense of its benefactors.

* GOAT: The Goat symbolizes one who wins through politics rather than war.

* WOLF: The Wolf is a symbol of a Constant Heart that suffers the calamities of war and siege with generous spirit; but when the time comes to fight in the open field, he fiercely fights, without giving his enemy a barracks.

* FIG: The Fig Tree or its leaves symbolize the State Benefactors.

* CRESCENT: The Crescent, of oriental origin, symbolizes Victory against the darkness of slander, and Emulations against inconstancy and fickleness.
