* NETTLE: The Nettle symbolizes Affliction.

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

* CHAIN: The Chain generally means Captivity suffered by the defense of the King or the Homeland.

* GRAPE: The Grapes symbolizes Liberality, felicity, and peace; also, association with wine-making.
