SONGS, SET TO MUSIC BY THE MOST EMINENT MASTERS: 18, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Nanny blushes when I woo her
Last Line: The other, take me in her arms.
Subject(s): Breasts; Kisses; Lips; Love


NANNY blushes when I woo her,
And, with kindly-chiding eyes,
Faintly says, I shall undo her,
Faintly, O forbear! she cries.

But her breasts while I am pressing,
While to hers my lips I join,
Warmed she seems to taste the blessing,
And her kisses answer mine.

Undebauched by rules of honour,
Innocence with nature charms;
One bids, gently push me from her,
The other, take me in her arms.
