At the center of the bookplate is a shield with an argent bordure. A quartered field with two designs—the first and fourth quarters with an argent field divided by a saltire and an argent chief with three cushions upon it. The second and third quarters feature an argent field divided by an argent bend—the top party features three heads of elk; the lower party features three crosslet fitchee. At the helm is a large knight's helmet backed by leafing; at the crest, atop a torse, is an griffin with the motto Vive ut Postea Vivas in a banner furled above. Beneath the shield is a small medal with Juncta in Uno Tria printed upon it.
