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

3) AZURE: Blue color that symbolizes Justice, Zeal, Truth, Loyalty, Charity and Beauty.

* WATER: The Water is a symbol of Enlightened Wisdom, of Virtuous Mood, and can also symbolize domain extension.

* MULBERRY: The Mulberry symbolizes Prudence and Wisdom.

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