June, with health and wealth and many happy years,
Wears an agate lest her sunshine turns to tears.
(Tiffany & Co., 1892)
Thro’ the moss agate’s charm, the happy years
Ne’er see June’s sunshine turn to tears.
(Tiffany & Co., 1909)
Who comes with summer to this earth,
And owes to June her hour birth,
With ring of agate on her hand
Can health, wealth and long life command.
(Tiffany & Co., 1892, 1909)
