Sea Venture, statek zaopatrzeniowy płynący do Wirginii, rozbija się o skały na tej szczegółowej mapie Bermudów wydrukowanej w Amsterdamie w 1640 roku przez kartografa Williama Janzona Blaeu. Zawrócony przez huragan w lipcu 1609 roku, statek i jego pasażerowie mieszkali na Bermudach przez dziesięć miesięcy, zanim w końcu dotarli do Jamestown. Na Bermudach założono później angielską kolonię.

Herb Kompanii Bermudzkiej (którego wersja została przyjęta jako oficjalny herb kraju w 1910 roku): czerwony lew trzyma scenę wraku w łapach pod łacińskim napisem Quo fata Ferunt ("gdzie prowadzi nas przeznaczenie"). Ta fraza, zaczerpnięta z Eneidy Wergiliusza, stała się oficjalnym mottem Bermudów.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

The Sea Venture, a resupply vessel bound for Virginia, is shown crashing into an outcropping of rock in this detail from a map of Bermuda printed in Amsterdam in 1640 by the cartographer William Janzon Blaeu. Diverted by a hurricane in July 1609, the ship and its passengers lived on the Bermuda Islands for ten months before finally making it to Jamestown. An English colony was later established in Bermuda.

The coat of arms for the Bermuda Company (a version of which was adopted as the country's official coat of arms in 1910): a red lion holds the scene of the wreck in his paws beneath the Latin inscription Quo fata Ferunt ("where destiny leads us"). That phrase, taken from Virgil's Aeneid, would become the official motto for Bermuda.
