* DOG: The Dog is a symbol of Faithful Vassal.

* ARROW: The Fess represents Readiness (for battle); if depicted with a cross, represents an affliction.

* 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.

* KNIGHT: The Knight symbolizes the Nobility.

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

* LAUREL: The Laurel is a symbol of Good Fame, and due to the perpetual greenness of its leaves, of Imperecedera Victoria.

* EMPIRE: The Head of the Empire, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Ghibelline party (derived from the Hohenstaufen, Lords of Waibling) who were loyal to the Emperor.
