Most famous "kissing" poet
Robert Herrick has been dubbed the "Kissing Poet." For instance his
"Hesperides", 1648, is replete with kisses
and kissing. In Catullus there is a kissing poem. Herrick has his own version:
Ah my Anthea ! Must my heart still break?
(Love makes me write, what shame forbids to speak.)
Give me a kisse, adde to that kisse a score;
Then to that twenty, adde an hundred more;
A thousand to that thousand; so kisse on,
To make that thousand up a million.
Treble that million, and when that is done,
Let's kisse afresh, as when we first begun.
But yet, though Love likes well such Scenes as these,
There is an act that will more fully please:
Kissing and glancing, soothing, all make way
But to the acting of this private play:
Name it I would; but being blushing red
The rest Ile speak, when we meet both in bed.
