The English term «terraced», sometimes used in blazon, is equivalent to the term «compartment». In Castilian blazon we use the term «terrazado», in this case as an element outside the shield, while «terrazado» also exists inside the shield in base.

Rex Lancefield, structured and parallel blazons

Canting arms of Rex Lancefield emblazoned by me under the directions of his descendant Erik Paul Arnelien. My interpretation is based on a painting of this coat of arms, c. XIX, somewhat deteriorated by handling and the passage of time. I have written the text of the blazon for this coat of arms in English and in Castilian in a structured way, to highlight the parallelism between both forms.

Paly of six Gules and Argent; overall, a fess Or charged with a lance Gules. Escudo palado de seis piezas de gules y plata; brochante sobre el todo, una faja de oro cargada de una lanza de gules. Structured and parallel blazon

Shakespeare, W.; 1608

Shakespeare, Or, on a bend Sable, 
        a Spear Argent, headed Or

William Shakespeare, «Coriolanus», Tragedy in 5 acts and 29 scenes, written in verse, dated to either 1608 or 1609, depending on the sources.


It is one of the last works written by William Shakespeare, a tragedy based on the life of Caius Marcius Coriolanus, a legendary Roman general from the 5th century B.C. Some authors consider General Coriolanus to be a historical figure, while others do not.

Initially known only as Caius Marcius, during the war against the Volsci he becomes a hero by entering the city of Corioli with a few soldiers, and from then on, he is called Caius Marcius Coriolanus.

Act 3, Scene 2, Volumnia, mother of Coriolanus

I prithee now, my son,
Go to them, with this bonnet in thy hand;
And thus far having stretch'd it (here be with them)
Thy knee bussing the stones (for in such business
Action is eloquence, and the eyes of the ignorant
More learned than the ears) waving thy head,
Which often, thus, correcting thy stout heart,
Now humble as the ripest mulberry
That will not hold the handling: or say to them,
Thou art their soldier, and being bred in broils
Hast not the soft way which, thou dost confess,
Were fit for thee to use as they to claim,
In asking their good loves, but thou wilt frame
Thyself, forsooth, hereafter theirs, so far
As thou hast power and person.

Emblem Azure, Saint Michael, grasping in his dexter hand a spear, point downward, and in his sinister hand bearing a coat of arms, upon a dragon Argent.

Emblem Azure, Saint Michael, grasping in his dexter hand a spear, point downward, and in his sinister hand bearing a coat of arms, upon a dragon Argent.

Emblema de azur, un Arcángel Miguel, teniendo en su diestra una lanza, con la punta hacia abajo y en su siniestra un escudo, sostenido por un dragón, todo de plata.

Two tinctures emblem interpreted as follows: an oval shape with a 5x6 proportion; the field illuminated in Gules, unlike its original colour; all its charges illuminated in Argent and outlined in the colour of the field; and the finish is marble-like.

I also have the honour of having collaborated for years with the University of Navarre.

Universitas Studiorum Navarrensis

Emblem Azure, Saint Michael Argent, vested and nimbed Or, grasping in his dexter hand a spear Or, point downward, and in his sinister hand bearing [ Gules, a chain orlewise, crosswise, and saltirewise Or, charged in the fess point with an emerald Vert, of Navarre ], upon a dragon Vert, armed, langued, fanged, and the eyes Gules. Motto: «Universitas Studiorum Navarrensis».

Emblem Azure, Saint Michael Argent, vested and nimbed Or, grasping in his dexter hand a spear Or, point downward, and in his sinister hand bearing [ Gules, a chain orlewise, crosswise, and saltirewise Or, charged in the fess point with an emerald Vert, of Navarre ], upon a dragon Vert, armed, langued, fanged, and the eyes Gules. Motto: «Universitas Studiorum Navarrensis».

Emblema de azur, un San Miguel de plata, vestido y nimbado de oro, teniendo en su diestra una lanza de oro, con la punta hacia abajo y en su siniestra trae [ escudo gules, una cadena puesta en orla, en cruz y en sotuer de oro, cargada en el centro de una esmeralda de sinople, de Navarra ], sostenido por un dragón de sinople, armado, lampasado, fierezado y encendido de gules. Divisa: «Universitas Studiorum Navarrensis».

Emblem interpreted as follows: oval in shape and more rounded than the original; the field illuminated in Azure; its charges illuminated in Gules, Vert, Argent, and Or, and outlined in Sable; the emerald represented by an enameled area Vert; and the whole emblem has a parchment-like finish.

The archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael are angels; therefore, I classify this emblem both under the category archangel and under angel, while Saint Michael himself is represented in it as a male figure.

Saint Michael the Archangel, in this representation, bears a shield which, at first, I blazon as the current coat of arms of Navarre, chains of gold, the original arms of Navarre being as blazoned in the armorial [Urfé; 15th century; folio 142]: «Gules, a carbuncle Or pommelly, illuminated Vert in the centre in the manner of an emerald». This description does not suggest the presence of chains, but rather the rays of a carbuncle, nor an actual emerald, since what corresponds to the central umbo from which the rays of the carbuncle emerge is enameled Vert.

Due to my way of painting the arms of Navarre in profile, it stands halfway between a carbuncle and chains, with the outer links round like those of a chain, the central ones long like the rays of a carbuncle, and in the centre I have not drawn an emerald, but an enameled area Vert «in the manner of an emerald».

Or, on a bend Sable, a spear Or, steeled Argent. Motto: «Non sanz droict»

Escudo de oro, una banda de sable, cargada de una lanza de plata, fustada oro. Lema: «Non sanz droict».

Coat of arms interpreted with: a semicircular (round) base; field and bend in flat tinctures Or and Sable; a lance with a broad and long iron illuminated in Argent; shaft illuminated in Or; motto in Sable upon a scroll of Argent; and the whole finished with a parchment effect.

Its motto in French «Non sanz droict» means «Not without right» and it is considered a canting (speaking) arm by the pun Spear ~ Shakespeare.

William Shakespeare, lanza de torneo

Or, on a bend Sable, a spear of the first, steeled Argent.

Or, on a bend Sable, a spear of the first, steeled Argent.

Escudo de oro, una banda de sable, cargada de una lanza de plata, fustada oro.

Coat of arms interpreted by me with: a semicircular (round) base; the field and bend illuminated in Or and Sable; the lance is a tournament one, similar to other Shakespeare coats of arms, which I have illuminated in Argent and Or and outlined from the field; and finished with a lightly hammered metal effect.

In this version of his blazon in English I have written «steeled Argent», which is how some authors write it, while in another article I have specified it as «headed Argent».

In the figure that is charged upon the bend of this interpretation of the shield, I recreate a tournament lance, which is the type usually used to represent the arms of William Shakespeare. Note that the blazon of his shield only indicates «a Spear» ~ «una lanza», so it could equally be the type of lance used by infantry or light cavalry. However, English tradition usually employs, for William Shakespeare, a tournament lance, both for the one charged on the bend and for the one held by the falcon on his crest.
