Quoth "BOWERMAN, MATTHEW S. (JSC-DV6) (USA)":
> What are cotises?

Cotises are secondary charges that, for a bend sinister, lie on
either side of the bend sinister, and are about 1/5 to 1/6 the
width of the bend sinister.

Since a pale cotised is easier to draw than a bend sinister
cotised, here is an ASCII art rendition of the former:


| |xxx| |
| |xxx| |
| |xxx| |
| |xxx| |
| |xxx| |
| |xxx| |
| |xxx| |

Roughly.
