  • 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.

    Robert Herrick (1852). “Hesperides; or, Works both human and divine”, p.64
