Other art textiles showed incidents in the lives of forest people little men and women in striped linen garments, wonderful trees and birds such as no human eye ever beheld but above the hangings a row of coats of arms again appeared, in which the imperial escutcheon alternated with the Saxon.
Over the door the travellers could discern the escutcheon of the Montacutes, a roebuck gules on a field argent, flanked on either side by smaller shields which bore the red roses of the veteran constable.
Isn't she a joke? She's scared the family escutcheon of the Armstrongs will be sullied forever with the blot of a boarder on it. Auntie Bell is nearly as bad too. My! I hope they won't expect us to trot her around in our set." "Why?" asked young Mr. Hamilton. He was always interested in new girls. "Too many girls in it already. You know that, Fred Hamilton."
At the foot of the stairs he halted, his forepaws on the first step, his grave face and pleading eyes uplifted, as though he were praying. The dim light fell on the raised head; and the white escutcheon on his breast shone out like the snow on Salmon. At length, with a sound like a sob, he dropped to the ground, and stood listening, his tail dropping and head raised.
Below this, the two Cavalier brothers, Giles and Everard Oxhead, who had sat in the oak with Charles II.

He hated Philip the man, but he hated still more Philip the usurper who had brought shame to the escutcheon of Bercy.
The existing tablet is a slab of bluish-black marble, which formerly was in the chancel. That it in no way relates to Captain Smith a near examination of it shows. This slab has an escutcheon which indicates three heads, which a lively imagination may conceive to be those of Moors, on a line in the upper left corner on the husband's side of a shield, which is divided by a perpendicular line.
"And on the scaffold!" added Henri, with deep emotion. "The scaffold!" exclaimed the baron. "Yes, yes; I remember now a dreadful tragedy. But he suffered unjustly." "No matter," answered Henri. "The ignominious punishment remains a stain upon our escutcheon. Men will point to me as the son of a condemned and executed traitor.
Blent was in full beauty that summer evening, and the girl sat in entranced silence as they drove by the river and came where the old house stood. The blinds were down, the escutcheon, with the Tristram fox again, above the door in the central tower. They were ushered into the library.
