heart

The ancients regarded the heart as the mark of a person of sincerity, who spoke the truth. It is sometimes used in heraldry in this sense, but more often as an emblem of kindness and charity. On the shield of Douglas, the heart alludes to the well-known attempt by Sir James Douglas to carry the heart of Robert the Bruce to the Holy Land in 1328. The heart may also be flammant or crowned; the flaming heart stands for ardent affection.
