ABOUT KISSING.
If kissing were not lawful, The lawyers would not use it; And if it were not pious, The clergy would not choose it. If it were not a dainty thing, The ladies would not crave it; And if it were not plentiful, The poor girls could not have it. Men scorn to kiss among themselves, And scarce would kiss a brother; But women want to kiss so bad, They kiss and kiss each other.
