Zoila de la Montayana - Award of Arms

Tindal and Emerson 
Eastern Kings have begun 
A list of her good works 
With all the charming quirks
Zoila de la Montayana
A friend to everyone, 
With steady dedication. 
Many small things done by her hands, 
Always given away as planned 
Her work brings out the joy! 
Filling the box of toys 
All of this We shall say 
Award of Arms here today 
Or, on a bend cotised azure a fleur-de-lys palewise between two cinquefoils palewise Or and on a chief gules a lion passant Or. 
Lady Zoil your arms will stand 
Said and done by Our hand 
Here at Ducal Challenges, 
Barony of Settmour Swamp
