AND FOREASMUCH His Majesty the King of Hyperion did by Warrant under his hand and Seal authorize and direct me to grant and assign such Arms and Crest and in the same Patent such Device and Badge accordingly, Know Ye therefore that I in pursuance of His Majesty's Warrant and by virtue of the Letters Patent granted by Bishop Wessex and by The King's Most Excellent Majesty do by these Presents grant and assign unto the said Aethelric Brandt the Arms following,
