Each is different from the one before and the one after. just as no two people are alike, no two kisses alike. Shakespeare said a kiss is a seal of love. Martial, that old Roman poet who hid ample opportunity to do research work on the subject, says that a kiss was the fragrance of balsam extracted from aromatic trees; the rise yielded by the teeming saffron; the perfume of fruits mellowing in their winter buds; the flowery meadows in the summer; amber warmed by the hand of a girl; a bouquet of flowers that attracts the bees.
