* TRIANGLE: The Triangle symbolizes Divine Equality and Perfection.

* PIGEON: The Pigeon is a symbol of Health; in the coat of arms it denotes Fidelity and Love. It is the emblem of the Third Person of the Holy Trinity and, as such, adorns the currency of the French Order of the Holy Spirit.

* LOZENGE: The Lozenges symbolize Constancy.

* 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.

* ERMINE: The Ermines symbolize Purity and Fidelity placed at the service of the Prince.
