THE FIRST KISS OF LOVE.

———

BY G. A. RAYBOLD.

The first kiss of love, when the favor is won,

Fills the heart with pure bliss, if ’tis modestly done,

For ’tis like a brief glance from the sun’s clouded eye

Which just touches the earth and flies back to the sky.

Ah! the bliss of that moment; ’twill ever remain,
