Cross-crosslet has each of its limbs crossed. Fig. 65. When the central part of the four limbs of a cross is cut out, it is said to be voided, as at Fig. 66; if only at the less point, where the limbs are conjoined, quaterly-pierced. Fig. 67.

A cross voided to the extremities of the shield is voided throughout.
Quater-pierced signifies that the centre is perforated with a square opening, but smaller than quaterly pierced.

When the lower limb of a cross is pointed, so as to be fixed into the ground, it is called fitchée; thus Fig. 68 is an example of a cross potent, quadrate, fitchée.
A cross raised on steps is said to be on degrees, or degraded.
The ordinaries are not always represented by straight lines; they may be formed by any of the partition lines shown at pages 8 and 9. Thus we find crosses indented, engrailed, invected, &c.
