2) SABLE: Black color that symbolizes Prudence, Sadness, Rigor, Honesty and Obedience.

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

* THISTLE: The Thistle symbolizes in Heraldry a heart nobly humble, but so careful of its honor, that it defends with its sword the luster of its lineage.

* CHECKY: The Checky symbolizes Military Art, for which reason it is usually awarded to soldiers who have exposed their lives in combat.

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

* ROUNDLE: The Roundles symbolize the bucklers that the soldiers carried as a defensive weapon.

* SWAN: The Swan, by the tradition that he sings sweetly when he is about to die, means Ancient Nobility, without stain of any kind, who dies courageously executing glorious undertakings.

* PALM: The Palm Tree symbolizes Victory and Triumph.

* HERON: The Heron represents Prudence in preventing dangers, guarding against them.
