From the Lips of the Bard

"My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand to smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss."

Romeo & Juliet

"What were thy lips the worse for one poor kiss?...

Give me one kiss, and I'll give it thee again, and one for interest, if thou wilt have twain."

Venus and Adonis

"By my troth, I kiss thee with a most constant heart."

King Henry IV, Part Two

"There was a pretty redness in his lip, a little riper and more lusty red than that mix'd in his cheek"

As You Like It

"I conjure thee by Rosaline's bright eyes, by her high forehead and her scarlet lip."

Romeo & Juliet

"You may as well say, that's a valiant flea that dare eat his breakfast on the lip of a lion."

Henry V

"But kiss: one kiss! Rubies unparagoned; how dearly they do't!"

Cymbeline
