Der Ritter und die sieben Tugenden stehen den sieben Hauptlastern (septem vitia capitalia: superbia "Hochmut", ira "Zorn", invidia "Neid", acedia "Faulheit", avaritia "Habgier", gula "Völlerei", luxuria "Wollust") entgegen, die hier als Teufel dargestellt sind, mit jeweils geringeren Unter-Lastern in Form von kleinen Dämonen in ihrem Gefolge. Die Rüstung und das Pferd des Ritters werden dabei mit weiteren Tugenden versinnbildlicht. Dies sind:
Der Engel krönt den Ritter und hält das Spruchband non coronabuntur nisi qui legitime certaverint sowie sieben Bänder mit den sieben Seligpreisungen (ipsorum est regnum caelorum; ipsi possidebunt regnum; ipsi consolabuntur; ipsi saturabuntur; ipsi misericordiam consequentur; ipsi Deum videbunt; quoniam filii Dei vocabuntur) Aus einem Manuskript der Summa de virtutibus et vitiis des Guilelmus Peraldus.
