 * 1858, Ellen J. Millington, Heraldry in History, Poetry, and Romance, page 235:
 * The term pamé, which ought properly to be applied only to a fish apparently on the point of expiring, is used in French blazonry in reference to the eagle, when, as is sometimes the case, he is depicted without langue, with the eyes closed, and the beack very much hooked; for, according to ancient tradition, 'this bird, after living in general not less than one hundred years, dies of starvation, his beak becoming so much hooked, that he is unable to receive nourishment, and thus dies.' An 'Aigle pamé, de gueules, au vol abaissé,' is seen in the Arms of de Sacquerville, a Norman family.
 * 1869, William-Smith Ellis, The Antiquities of Heraldry ... with a Catalogue of Early Armorial Seals, page 115:
 * The Dauphin of France is said to have been so called from the Counts of Auvergne, of whom Guillaume VIII. bore according to the blazonry of the Crusaders A.D. 1147 un dauphin pamé d'azur en champ d'or.
