OP BLAZONING. The origin of the word " blazon" is evidently German, blasen, in that language, signifying to wind a horn. When a knight intended to enter the lists at a tournament, he caused his esquire to signify his intention by winding a horn. Proper officers were appointed to examine the armorial bearings of such as were about to enter, and this having been once done, it was not necessary that it should be repeated, but the knight so examined was thenceforth entitled to place two horns, by way of crest, upon the top of his helmet, to shew that he had once entered the lists, and that his arms had been duly examined. Hence the frequent occurrence of these horns among the crests of the German nobles, of which an example is given in the Display, over the arms of H.R.H. Prince Albert. Blasen, in English, blazon, came thus to be applied to the description of coat armour. By blazoning a coat of arms, then, we mean describing it in proper heraldic terms; with these terms every herald, as well as those who paint or engrave arms, is supposed to be acquainted; and, therefore, if the description be accurate, he would be able from it to make a drawing of the required arms.
