A coat of arms divided by a fess, with a lion and ermine spots upon it. Above is a cross and two annulets; below, one. At the helm is a knight's helmet; at the crest is the head of a donkey with a wreath of laurel leaves. Two cherubs support the shield as it is centered on a large cloud with seemingly heavenly light shining behind it. Also seen on the cloud are several books, an hourglass, and a scribe with part of a skeleton featured upon it. The cherubs each hold the end of a banner that features the motto Duce et Auspice Christo.
A coat of arms divided into two, with the faces of three bulls within. A knight's helmet is at the helm, and the crest is surrounded by mantling. Above, protruding from a crown, is the head and neck of a bull. Beneath is the motto Nec Temere, Nec Timide.
