A kiss, when all is said, what is it? A rosy dot placed on the 'I' in loving; Tis a secret told to the mouth instead of to the ear.

A kiss is a rosy dot over the 'i' of loving.

A kiss is a rosy dot over the 'i' of loving.

A kiss is a secret which takes the lips for the ear.

A kiss is a secret told to the mouth instead of the ear; kisses are the messengers of love and tenderness.

A kiss! When all is said, what is a kiss? An oath of allegiance taken in closer proximity, a promise more precise, a seal on a confession, a rose-red dot upon the letter i in loving; a secret which elects the mouth for ear; an instant of eternity murmuring like a bee; balmy communion with a flavor of flowers; a fashion of inhaling each other's hearts, and of tasting, on the brink of the lips, each other's soul!
