I don't know whether Papworth blazoned those things himself. It
doesn't seem unlikely, given the number of blazons like "... a bend
between six eagles ... and a chief ...", which makes me think that he
was looking at an untinctured representation (a seal, a carved stone,
whatever).
I think it would be much better to have actual pictures to show the
CoA.
