The Three Kings by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Three Kings came riding from far away,
Melchior and Gaspar and Baltasar;
Three Wise Men out of the East were they,
And they travelled by night and they slept by day,
For their guide was a beautiful, wonderful star.
The star was so beautiful, large, and clear,
That all the other stars of the sky
Became a white mist in the atmosphere,
And by this they knew that the coming was near
Of the Prince foretold in the prophecy.
Three caskets they bore on their saddle-bows,
Three caskets of gold with golden keys;
Their robes were of crimson silk with rows
Of bells and pomegranates and furbelows,
Their turbans like blossoming almond-trees.

Five Gold Rings
The first Five Books of the Old Testament:
1) Genesis
2) Exodus
3) Leviticus
4) Numbers
5) Deuteronomy
Which gives the history of humanity’s sinful failure and God’s response of grace in the creation of a people to be a light to the world.
