Jenny kiss'd Me

Portrait of James Henry Leigh Hunt
James Henry Leigh Hunt 1784–1859

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 welth have miss'd me, Say I'm growing old, but add, Jenny kiss'd me.
