Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score;
Then to that twenty, add a hundred more:
A thousand to that hundred: so kiss on,
To make that thousand up a million.
Treble that million, and when that is done,
Let's kiss afresh, as when we first begun.

Fain would I kiss my Julia's dainty leg,
Which is as white and hairless as an egg.

I dare not ask a kiss;
I dare not beg a smile;
Lest having that or this,
I might grow proud the while.
No, no, the utmost share
Of my desire shall be
Only to kiss that air,
That lately kissed thee.

What is a kiss? Why this, as some approve:
The sure, sweet cement, glue, and lime of love.
Robert Herrick
Quote of the day
