Enfiled (fr. enfilé). When a sword is drawn with the head of a beast, a coronet, or any other object so placed that the blade it though, the sword is said to be enfiled with such an object; or in the case of rings, crowns, or fillets, though which a sword or crosier is passed, the term may also be used. (фр. enfilé). Когда меч изображён с головой зверя, короной или каким-либо другим объектом, так, что клинок протыкает pierces его, то говорится, что меч enfiled (нанизан на, пронзил ?) этот объект, хотя в случае с кольцами, коронами, лентами, в которые меч или посох проходят, также может использоваться этот термин.
