KISSING USURIE, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Biancha, let / me pay ther debt
Last Line: Make payment for his pleasure.
Subject(s): Kisses


Biancha, Let
Me pay the debt
I owe thee for a kisse
Thou lend'st to me;
And I to thee
Will render ten for this:

If thou wilt say,
Ten will not pay
For that so rich a one;
Ile cleare the summe,
If it will come
Unto a Million.

By this I guesse,
Of happinesse
Who has a little measure:
He must of right,
To th'utmost mite,
Make payment for his pleasure.
