On a Torse of the colors - (Means the next thing deScribed will go upon a cloth wreath (Torse)
of 6 twists, alternating between the primary tinctures)

Sable (Silver or Black) and can be oriented in any attitude (Rampant, Sejant, etc.) as the Blazon did not specifically
state - however the attitude & colors of the Shield are preferred. The Horse is then affixed by the Torse (together
with the Mantling) to the Helmet, which is drawn in Profile with its Visor closed, or with no Visor nor Grilles - the kind used
by a "Bürgerliche" (Esquire/Commoner/Citizen))

Argent (Silver) - (Peace and sincerity)
