Escudo partido: 1^o de oro, un tejón rampante de sable; 2^o de sable, un tejón rampante, contornado de oro.

Imaginary arms of Hufflepuff realized in the following way: the mouth of the coat of arms is rounded; the field is illuminated and has a marble finish; and the badgers, each facing one side, are illuminated, outlined by the field, and finished with a hammered metal effect.

The initial quote, next to the Hufflepuff coat of arms, is taken from [Rowling, J. K.; 1997] and corresponds to «You might belong in Hufflepuff, Where they are just and loyal, Those patient Hufflepuffs are true, And unafraid of toil».

When blazoning the 2^nd badger, it must be taken into account that its head is regardant, which is what «is said of animals, or their heads, turned toward the sinister side of the shield» [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 55] and [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 61].

Party per fess: 1 Gules, a cross patty Argent; 2 Or, four pallets Gules.

Escudo cortado: 1^o de gules, una cruz patada de plata; 2^o de oro, cuatro palos de gules.

Existing coat of arms which has been interpreted by me with the following characteristics: the mouth of the shield ends in a semicircular arch shape; the field has been enameled with flat tinctures of Gules color and Or metal; the cross patty and the pales are illuminated with Argent metal and Gules color; the whole has received a watercolor finish; and all within a Gules frame with 22 cross patties Argent, to which the name of its owner and blazon written in Sable and Gules tinctures is added.

In [Medél, R.; 1846; plate 35, illustration 7] can be seen his interpretation of the coat of arms of the Order of Mercy.

The 2^nd coat of arms of the Order of Mercy also illustrating this article is the same as the one included within the frame that appears in the 1^st illustration of this article.

Another way to write the blazon of the coat of arms of the Order of Mercy could be the following, which simplifies the description of the 2^nd quarter by saying that they are the arms of Aragon:

Party per fess: 1 Gules, a cross patty Argent; and 2 Or, four pallets Gules.

This coat of arms has been classified within the category called religious heraldry.
