    WYCLIFFE Arms.—Arg., on a fess gu., 3 crescents of the first between 3 Cornish choughs ppr., in chief a spear-head of the second. Wycliffe. Crest.—A Cornish chough, wings addorsed, ppr. Motto.—Deus alit me. [Groot. Defensio Jidei Catholicae de Satisfactione Christi adversus Faustum socinum. Lugduni Batavorum, 1617.] This stamp belonged to T. Wycliffe, probably a member of the Yorkshire family of that name, but I have not so far been able to identify the owner more particularly.
