Julie Kissed Me (A True Story)

Julie kissed me when we met,
Her lips on mine, or quite akin;
Truth she feigns now to forget.
She, whose claims I put no stock in,
Says I must be nearly mad;
Notes I misremember blissf’ly;
Posits that only a cad
Would believe that Julie kissed me!

Jenny Kiss'd  Me
Leigh Hunt.

Jenny kiss'd me when we met,
Jumping from the chair she sat in;
Time, you thief, who love to get
Sweets into your list, put that in!
Say I'm weary, say I'm sad,
Say that health and wealth have miss'd me,
Say I'm growing old, but add,
Jenny kiss'd me!
