The appointee's coat of arms is at bottom, while the winged Lion of Saint Mark is in the upper field.

The beast also holds an open book, which refers to Venice's legendary association with Saint Mark the Evangelist. Also notable in the decorative border of volume 3 are the Angel Gabriel and Virgin Mary at upper left and right corners, two bishop saints at center left and right, and Saint Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Egypt at lower left and right corners.
