THE KISS AND ITS HISTORY
TABLE OF CONTENTS
TO
WALTER BENSON, Esquire
I DEDICATE MY MODEST PART IN THIS BOOK IN TOKEN OF A FRIENDSHIP WHICH HAS GROWN STAUNCHER WITH THE GROWTH OF YEARS
ἦ μεγάλα χάρις Δώρῳ ξὺν ὀλίγῳ· πάντα δὲ τιμᾶντα τὰ πὰρ φίλων.
Theocritus, Idyl xxviii., 24, 25.
Je célèbre des jeux paisibles, Qu'en vain on semble mépriser, Les vrais biens des âmes sensibles, Les doux mystères du baiser.
Dorat.
To gentle sports due praise I render, At which some wits have vainly sneered: The true delight of spirits tender, The kiss's mysteries endeared.
W. F. H.
TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE
The following treatise, which is the work of a Romance philologist of high European reputation, has not only gone through two editions in Denmark, but has also been translated into German, Swedish, and Russian. The popularity which this learned and at the same time charming little book rapidly acquired abroad, and the favourable criticisms passed on it by Continental scholars, have encouraged me to present it to my fellow-countrymen in an English dress. With regard to the numerous poetical quotations that form so striking a feature of this book, those which I have translated myself may be distinguished from such as I have borrowed from standard versions by the appended initials, W. F. H.
    Inner Temple,
    London, 2nd August 1901.
AUTHOR'S PREFACE
Wenn ich nur selber wüsste, Was mir in die Seele zischt! Die Worte und die Küsse Sind wunderbar vermischt.
Oh, could I but decipher What 'tis that fills my mind. The words are with the kisses So wond'rously combined.
Heine.
Dante, in the fifth canto of his Hell, has celebrated the power a kiss may have over human beings. In the course of his wanderings in the nether world, when he has reached the spot where abide those who have sinned through love, he sees two souls that "flutter so lightly in the wind." These are Francesco da Rimini and her brother-in-law Paolo. He asks Francesco to tell him:
"In the time of your sweet sighs, By what, and how love granted, that ye knew Your yet uncertain wishes?"
​Whereto she replies:
"One day For our delight we read of Lancelot, How him love thrall'd. Alone we were, and no Suspicion near us. Ofttimes by that reading Our eyes were drawn together, and the hue Fled from our alter'd cheek. But at one point Alone we fell. When of that smile we read, The wished smile, so rapturously kissed By one so deep in love, then he, who ne'er From me shall separate, at once my lips All trembling kiss'd. The book and writer both Were love's purveyors. In its leaves that day We read no more."
I have had a special object in prefacing my studies on the history of kissing with these famous verses, for I regarded it in the light of a duty to caution my readers emphatically, and at the very outset, as to the danger of even reading about kisses; and I consider that, having done this, I have warned my readers against pursuing the subject, and "forewarned is forearmed," or, "homme averti en vaut deux."

DEDICATION TO THE EDITION OF 1626.
TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
THE
LADY ELIZABETH COUNTESSE OF BANBURY, &c.
RIGHT HONOURABLE,
It was my good happe not longe since, in a Friends House, to light upon a briefe History of the Life, Arraignement, and Death of that Mirrour of all true Honour, and Vertue, Syr Thomas More, who by his Wisdome, Learning, and Santity, hath eternized his Name, Countrey, and Profession, throughout the Christian World, with immortal Glory, and Renowne.
Finding, by perusal therof, the same replenished with incoparable Treasures, of no lesse Worthy, and most Christian Factes, then of Wise, and Religious Sentences Apophthegmes, and Sayings; I deemed it not only an errour to permit so great a light to ly ​buried, as it were, within the walls of one private Family: but also judged it worthy the Presse, even of a golden Character (if it were to be had) to the end, the whole World might receave comfort and profit by reading the same.
Having made this Resolution, a Difficultie presented itselfe to my Thoughts, under whose Shadow, or Patronage I might best shelter the Worke: unto which strife Your Ladiship occurring to my cogitations, put an End, with the Beams of your Worth, and Honour; so dazeling my Eyes, as I could discerne none other more Fit, or Worthy to imbrace, and protect so Glorious and memorable Example.
Of whose Goodnes I am so confident that without further debate, I judge, this Enterchange of Freendshippe may worthily be made betweene the Saint and You. You (Madame) shal Patronize his Honour heere on Earth; and He shall become a Patrone and Intercessour for You in Heaven,
By him, that am your Ladiships
professed Servant,
T. P.

# The Idler (Johnson)

The Idler was a series of 103 essays, all but twelve of them by Samuel Johnson, published in the London weekly the Universal Chronicle between 1758 and 1760. It is likely that the Chronicle was published for the sole purpose of including The Idler, since it had produced only one issue before the series began, and ceased publication when it finished. The authors besides Johnson were Thomas Warton, Bennet Langton, and Joshua Reynolds.

A parody of She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways by William Wordsworth. First published in The Muse among the Motors (1904).
Wordsworth.
He wandered down the mountain-grade  Beyond the speed assigned — A youth whom Justice often stayed  And generally fined.
He went alone, and none might know  If he could drive or steer;
Now he is in the ditch, and O!  The differential gear!
