wading rings, through the
• oe , have varied in size and

? t-^ir idornment. Even before
Christian times, inscriptions and
vm^clie ^iesigns indicated their
special purpose. “In thee my
'"hoice do I rejoice!’ was a
fav cite motto in Shakespeare’s
day. H
pfljhaps, however, we instinc
tively feel that there is more
honest sentiment in simplicity
than^n ostentation. At least, in
the tfth Century, Queen Mary of
Engird thought this to be true.
Befujse desperation drove her on
a b®er course in history, she
set t&e pace — in wedding rings
— for future generations who
prefefr the thin, gold band. For
Iter iaarriage to Philip n ofSp4in,
it ifijsaid that she .. . 'chose
