The supporters and The helm and the mantling

liken the arrows on my crest ; and the spears i walk between in house ; one a single crown(pope)one a double crown(queen or king) to the alter ; were but i have a symbol of a flower on the alter ; i am who i am and im not popeye the sailor man or am i ; either way i got the olive oil ; and whos picture sits in the basement ; The figures that stand on either side of the shield are known in heraldry as "supporters" and are often depicted in a ferocious manner. The King of England chose two lions while Scotland chose two unicorns

The helm (heaume or helmet), which in heraldry is usually placed above the shield of arms, not only serves as a means of displaying the crest, but also has a significance of its own, since its type denotes the rank of the person bearing the arms. On the helm lies a mantling or lambrequin. The mantle, originally, was to protect the head and shoulders of the wearer from the sun's heat. It has become a decorative accessory to the crest and shield.
The arms of Canada show a royal helmet, which is a barred helm of gold looking outward and draped in a mantle of white and red which are the official colours of Canada.
