Sing ardent praise for Mariana, Her nimble needle, her groaning board, Cultivating gentle comforts for her fellow folkAnd regal beauty when Kingdom calls.Her heart consumed by noble desireFor learning as deep and broad as the sea. And ever and on her learning continues, Her genius gathers, lustrous as a Pearl.
On this Sabbath, the fourth Day of March, Anno Societatis Fifty Seven, at the Kingdom Arts and Sciences Festival, Abran King and Anya Queen wish to induct Doña Mariana Ruiz de Medina into their Order of the Pearl. Thus we Grant her arms so blazoned: Vert, a rose argent within a bordure invected erminois.
