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

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

Next lets look at the characteristics of some figures that we can find in heraldry and crests:

* NETTLE: The Nettle symbolizes Affliction.

* WINDMILL: The Windmills and their Wheels are a symbol of Obedience, because they face the violence of the current and obey the movement that it prints.

* CINQUEFOIL: The Cinquefoils symbolize Hope and Joy.

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

* SALTIRE: The Saltire symbolizes the Banner or script of the leader undefeated in combat.

* 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.
