Just as a sidebar... notice that there are NO rings on the middle fingers.
Look at portrait after 16th century portrait and this is what you find 90%
of the time. and not just in England. People are almost never shown with a
ring on a middle finger.
This feature is pointed out in _Rings for the Finger_ by Kuntz. Ever since I
learned this, I find it impossible to wear a ring on a middle finger when in
period dress!
