En Don Quijote, [Cervantes Saavedra, M. de; 1605; volumen 1, capítulo 18], el escudo de armas del «duque de Nerbia» se describe utilizando la palabra «empresa»~«enterprise», escribiendo «las armas de los veros azules», refiriéndose al forro de su escudo de armas, «es el poderoso duque de Nerbia, Espartafilardo del Bosque, que trae por empresa en el escudo una esparraguera, con una letra en castellano que dice así: «Rastrea mi suerte»».
Unas líneas antes, y para el joven caballero francés Pierres Papín, con un escudo sencillo de plata sin cargas ni lema, Cervantes escribe sin «empresa»: «que trae las armas como nieve blancas y el escudo blanco y sin empresa alguna».
Cervantes utiliza «empresa» para referirse únicamente a las cargas del escudo de armas, no al campo, ni a su color, metal o forro, ni al lema, lo cual queda claro cuando escribe: «Y desta manera fue nombrando muchos caballeros del uno y del otro escuadrón que él se imaginaba, y a todos les dio sus armas, colores, empresas y motes...».
El término se utiliza con el mismo significado de «carga en el escudo de armas» en el comentario al final de [Febrer, J.; Siglo XIII; trova 39] que dice «y quiso significarle con el puente, que traía por empresa en su escudo», siendo en este caso la carga el puente.
La quinta acepción del término «empresa» en el diccionario [Real Academia Española; 2014] es «Símbolo o figura que alude a lo que se intenta conseguir o denota alguna cualidad de la que se hace alarde, acompañada frecuentemente de un lema», que si bien no se refiere específicamente a la heráldica, está en línea con el uso anterior y deja claro que el lema no es parte de la «empresa» aunque puede acompañarla.
Por tanto, en castellano, el término «empresa» se refiere específicamente a la carga o cargas sobre el campo de un escudo de armas, y no incluye los esmaltes del campo, el lema, ni sus ornamentos exteriores.

In Don Quixote, [Cervantes Saavedra, M. de; 1605; volume 1, chapter 18], the coat of arms of the «duke of Nerbia» is described using the word «empresa»~«enterprise», writing «las armas de los veros azules», referring to the fur on his coat of arms, «es el poderoso duque de Nerbia, Espartafilardo del Bosque, que trae por empresa en el escudo una esparraguera, con una letra en castellano que dice así: «Rastrea mi suerte»» ~ «the blue vair arms, is the powerful duke of Nerbia, Espartafilardo del Bosque, who bears as a charge on his shield an asparagus plant, with an inscription in Castilian that says: «Tracks my fate»».
A few lines before, and for the young French knight Pierres Papín, with simple arms Argent without charges or motto, Cervantes writes without «empresa»: «que trae las armas como nieve blancas y el escudo blanco y sin empresa alguna» ~ «who bears arms as white as snow and a shield white and without any charges».
Cervantes uses «empresa» to mean only the charges on the coat of arms, not the field, nor its color, metal or fur, nor the motto, which is clear when he writes: «Y desta manera fue nombrando muchos caballeros del uno y del otro escuadrón que él se imaginaba, y a todos les dio sus armas, colores, empresas y motes...» ~ «And in this way, he went on naming many knights from one and the other squadron that he imagined, and to each of them, he gave arms, colors, charges, and mottos...».
The term is used with the same meaning of «charge on the coar of arms» in the commentary at the end of [Febrer, J.; Siglo XIII; trova 39] which says «y quiso significarle con el puente, que traía por empresa en su escudo» ~ «and wanted to signify with the bridge that he bore as a charge on his shield», where in this case, the charge is the bridge.
The fifth definition of the term «empresa» in the dictionary [Real Academia Española; 2014] is «Símbolo o figura que alude a lo que se intenta conseguir o denota alguna cualidad de la que se hace alarde, acompañada frecuentemente de un lema» ~ «Symbol or figure that alludes to what one intends to achieve or denotes a quality of which one boasts, often accompanied by a motto», which, while not specific to heraldry, aligns with the previous usage and makes it clear that the motto is not part of the «empresa» though it may accompany it.
Then, in Castilian, the term «empresa» refers specifically to the charge or charges on the field of a coat of arms, and it does not include the field tinctures, the motto, or its external ornaments.
