2) ARGENT (Silver): Purity, Integrity, Obedience, Firmness, Surveillance, Eloquence and Expiration.

3) PURPLE: Justice, Wit, Truth, Greatness, Wisdom and Love; those who wear this color are obliged to defend the Prince defending ecclesiastical people.

Next lets look at the characteristics of some figures that we can find in heraldry and crests:

* COCK: The Cock is a symbol of Vigilance and Tenacity in the fight.

* IVY: The Ivy symbolizes Love Bond and also Triumph.

* HOLM: The Holm Oak is a symbol of Strong and Constant Spirit in heroic actions and courageous undertakings.

* APPLE: The Apple Tree symbolizes the Watchful Heart.

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