Coat of Arms of Princes Wiśniowiecki (Vol. 9 p. 345-363)
The Coat of Arms of the Dukes of Wiśniowiecki . The moon should be turned with both horns down, while its shoulder is directed up, in its center a star with six rays, on its shoulder is a triple cross, that is, one in a straight line, two across, one on one Side, the other on the other, in a red field, on the helmet of the ducal miter, they describe it as follows: Fern. in the fol. 1147. About the Coat of Arms. f. 649. Approx. volume. 1. Fol. 524. Koyalov. at MS. The princes of Wiśniowiecki, Zbarazcy, Poryccy and [p. 346] The Woroniecki family did not all use this coat of arms in the same way: because Bielski says fol. 521. that the shield of their coat of arms should be divided into four parts, in the first part from the right side of the shield ordinary Lithuanian pogoń: in the second on the left side the moon without a star, as described above , the cross on it is just a duel : lower, under Pogoń in the third line also the moon, under the moon in the fourth line Pogonia Litewska, Jakoż and Kojałowicz in MS. testifies that he saw the coat of arms of the Zbarazki family, in which there was only a half circle, not the moon, and on it an ordinary cross. They used Pogoń Litewska in the coat of arms earlier, I'm sure: because they draw their path from the blood of Lithuanian princes, as you will see below; but when and on what occasion the moon with the star and the cross appropriated the honor of these princely houses nobody writes; Confirm that Okolski namie, that Korybut, the brother of Władysław Jagiełło the Polish king, removed the first pogonia from his coat of arms and brought the Polish eagle to this place, but he does not endorse any other famous author, although we would allow Okolski to, but we still have no news from where and by whom the moon and star shone in this coat of arms, which, according to Okolski, put them on the eagle's chest. But even that is not certain what the same author cites. Remember, righteous ones, that, having rejected schismatic errors and reconciled with the Roman Church, they threw away the Ruthenian cross from the moon and star: for what a star, and not the cross itself, for what a cross that belongs schism, but what for only the Zbarazzi princes, not the Wiśniowiecki family? I would understand that this variation of the Lithuanian hunt into the moon described above only happened around 1500. By the time Constantine, Prince of Ostrog, Voivode of Trotsky, Grand Hetman of Lithuania, upon his return from the long Moscow captivity, changed his equestrian coat of arms to another, and the other princes in Volhynia who followed his path did the same, since this coat of arms has something similar, or only with the tip, with the coat of arms of the Ostrogsky princes. what the same author quotes.
