Attend, Atlantia, to thy Queen and King To hear of duty and dedication true Steadfast service in many colors and hues From Aemilia Rosa eternal springs. No scribe or poet can number everything: Though uncountable hours and great works ensued, Sweet sacrifice and struggles were not eschewed. She does not recoil from sharp arrows and slings.Now in this sweet Barony of Hills so Bright Eckehard and Jane make known Our will as the Crown: What now must she become but a vulning Peer? A gentle Pelican with wide wings of white, When Fiery Trials and Royal Archers abound. May all rejoice from what is presented here!Thus also do We award her the sole and exclusive right to bear arms, to wit: Vert, a domestic cat's head cabossed ermine maintaining in its mouth an artist's paintbrush fesswise argent, a bordure ermine. Done by Our hands this day, October 2, A.S. LVI.In witness thereof, I Triton Herald set my hand by these letters PatentEalawynn Mæru (Alias Ela)Roxbury MillAtlantia
