It would take up too much space merely to enumerate the distinguished men, who as Undergraduate mem- bers of the House owed not a little to their training herein, and by their subsequent career shed lustre upon Christ Church ; while to write their lives would in several instances be to transcribe pages of England's history.
The Arms now borne by Christ Church are those of Cardinal Wolsey : Sable, on a cross engrailed argent,
a lion passant gules between four leopards' faces

The Badge is a Cardinal's Hat with five tassels.
The Motto, belonging to Wolsey, is Dominvs Mihi Aoivtor ; this was to be seen in the East Window of the Choir, which existed during the whole of the last and down to the middle of the present century.
