* PEACOCK: The Peacock, by its head denotes Prudence; for his chest, of gold and sapphire, Loyalty, Fidelity and Zeal; in the hidden and submissive of his steps, Secret, and in the terribly out of tune voice of his singing, Terror of enemies.

* LEBREL: The Lebrels denote Burning and Courage in undertaking dangers, with such decision, that they need to contain their effort. The Boar symbolizes Dauntless and Boldness.

* CABRIO: The Cabrio symbolizes the boots and spurs, and for this reason it was granted as an adornment of the shield to the Knight who was wounded from the combat in his legs.

* LOZENGE: The Lozenges symbolize Constancy.

* GYRON: The Gyron represents Favor.
