Jenny Kiss’d Me When We Met

By James Henry 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;	5
Say that health and wealth have miss’d me;
Say I’m growing old, but add—
Jenny kiss’d me!
