aying, then, the forfeit due, By thy much-lov'd beauties swear, Faults like these you'll still pursue, Faults ! which kisses can repair. 5 KISS X 'N various kisses various charms I find, i For changeful fancy loves each change- ful kind : 'Whene'er with mine thy humid lips unite, Then humid kisses with their sweets delight ; From ardent lips so ardent kisses please, For glowing transports often spring from these. What joy ! to kiss those eyes that wanton rove, Then catch the glances of returnin...g love ; Or clinging to the cheek of crimson glow, The bosom, shoulder, or the neck of snow, What pleasure ! tender passion to assuage, And see the traces of our am'rous rage On the soft neck or blooming cheek exprest, On the white shoulder, or still whiter breast. 'Twixt yielding lips, in ev'ry thrilling kiss, To dart the trembling tongue what matchless bliss ! Inhaling-sweet each other's mingling breath, While love lies gasping in the arms of death ! While soul with soul in ecstasy unites. KISS X Intranc'd, impassioned with the fond delights !
