A Jet Ring Sent by John Donne
1571 – 1631


Thou art not so black as my heart,
Nor half so brittle as her heart, thou art;
What wouldst thou say? Shall both our properties by thee be spoke,
Nothing more endless, nothing sooner broke?


Marriage rings are not of this stuff;
Oh, why should aught less precious or less tough,
Figure our loves? Except in thy name thou have bid it say,
“I’m cheap, and naught but fashion, fling me away.”


Yet stay with me since thou art come,
Circle this finger’s top, which didst her thumb;
Be justly proud, and gladly safe, that thou dost dwell with me,
She that, oh, broke her faith, would soon break thee.
