LEOPARD. The positions of the Leopard are blazoned by the same terms as those of Lions.

               A Leopard’s head, i.e. when depicted with the neck is always blazoned a Leopard’s Head. When no part of the neck appears it is blazoned a Leopard’s-face, and is always guardant. A Leopard’s-face jessant-de-lis, is depicted with a fleur-de-lis in its mouth, the top shewing above the head, for examples See P. 28, f. 1 to 6. (ELVN)
