Origin/meaning
The star and sea refer to St. Mary as the Stella Maria (star of the sea). It also refers to the sea as both Belgium (country of birth) and the Netherlands (where he grew up) are bordering the sea. The lion is also part of both the Belgian and Dutch arms.
The chief shows the symbols of the Augustinian Order, of which he was a member.
