* WHEEL: The Wheels symbolize Speed in carrying out the most arduous undertakings. They are also a symbol of Fortune, Favor and Inconstancy.

* TURTLE: The Turtle is one of the most noble figures, being a symbol of the Knight who retires late from combat, facing his enemy until the last moment, trusting in his own strength.

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

* ROOK: The Rooks symbolize the Captain who defends his fortress.

* TROUT: The Trout is a symbol of Ardent Spirit in war and Calm and Serene in Peace.
