Line 19: Line 25:
The boar in the crest is for Richard III himself, the globe shows the world-wide membership of the Society, and the banner of St. George is for Richard's kingdom of England. Murrey and blue were the livery colours of the House of York. The motto 'Loyalty' reflects "Loyaulte me lie", one of the mottoes of Richard of Gloucester, but may be described as a specifically Society version.
