Subject: anyone for heraldry

Does any Humanist reader know of any work already done on the transcription,
definition, or dare I say it, encoding of heraldic descriptions? You know,
"gules, a willard couchant, with three barred wombats sinister" kind of thing.

I'm interested because we're having to deal with this kind of stuff within the
Bodleian ms description project and, frankly, need all the help we can get.
