## The words

Diamonds for riches, By danger followed  
fast, Emeralds for ardour By jealous doubt  
o’ercast, Ruby, fickle passion,  
Pearl, too coldly white, Amethyst for sorrow,  
Opal, baneful light; But one of all the jewels  
Speaks love for ever true, And on my ring it  
sparkles, The sapphire blue!
