Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

Was the sign some aspect of his wife? [In a manner of speaking]
Was she possibly pregnant? And the husband knew he couldn't be the father? [No and No]

Was it something he saw when he looked at his wife? If so, was it something about her body? Clothing? Something she was holding?

Would this sign be noticed around her head? Torso? Extremities?

I'm thinking it has something to do with a lack of tan line on her ring finger... is that it?

Does it have something to do with what she's wearing?

(PS barry, this is a great one, I have been stumped for days)
