CHAPTER I - Kisses.

We advise of not, in the first meetings, to multiply the kisses, the embraces and the other accessories of the sexual intercourse; but we can be lavish in the meetings there which will follow (Ap. N 1).

We kiss the forehead ( front ? ), the eyes, the cheeks, the throat ( breast ? ), the breast, the bosoms, the lips and the inside of the mouth (Ap. N 2).

The east inhabitants also kiss the woman in the joints of thighs, on arms and navel.

With a girl, there are three sorts of kisses:

The nominal, the unstable and the moving.

The nominal is the simple kiss on the mouth, by the apposition of the lips of both lovers.

In the unstable kiss, the girl presses between her lips the lower lip of her lover; she ( it ? ) introduces him ( it ? ) into her ( its ? ) mouth by printing him ( her ? ) a movement of suction.

In the moving kiss, she gets ( touches ? ) with her ( its ? ) language the lip of her lover, by closing eyes, and place the two hands in his.

The authors distinguish another four sorts of kisses:

The right, the tilted, the sour, the pressing.

In the right ( straight ? ) kiss, both lips apply directly, those of the lover on those of the mistress.

In the tilted kiss, both lovers, tilted head, tighten ( stretch out ? ) their lips the one towards the other one.

In the sour kiss, one of the lovers turns to him, with the hand, the head of the other one, and, the other hand, takes him ( her ? ) the chin.

The kiss is said pressed when one of both lovers presses strongly with its lips the lower lip of the other one. He ( it ? ) is very pressed ( is very in a hurry ? ), when having taken the lip between two fingers we get ( touch ? ) her ( it ? ) with the language and the press strongly with a lip.

Between lovers, we bet to whom will seize the first one, with his lips, the lower lip of the other one. If the woman loses, she has to shout, to push away ( to repel ? ) her lover by beating hands, to scold him ( it ? ) and to require ( demand ? ) another bet. If she ( it ? ) loses second time, she has to show some more of resentment, and seize the moment when her lover is not on his nurses, either sleeps, to take between teeth his lower lip, and to squeeze ( tighten ? ) it rather hardly so that he cannot loosen ( kick away ? ) her ( it ? ); once that is done, she begins laughing, makes a lot of noise and laughs at her lover; she ( it ? ) dances and stirs in front of him, and says to him ( her ? ), by making fun ( by joking ? ), all which passes him ( her ? ) by the spirit; she ( it ? ) frowns by rolling him ( her ? ) big eyes.

Such are the games and Paris of two lovers on the occasion of the kisses.

The very fascinated lovers also use ( wear out ? ) it for the other preciousness which we shall see farther.

When the man kisses the superior lip of the woman while this one, in return, kisses him ( her ? ) the lower lip, it is the kiss of the superior lip there.

When one of the lovers takes with his ( her;its ? ) lips the lips of the other one, it is there the kiss fastens.

When, in this kiss, he ( it ? ) gets ( touches ? ) with the language teeth and palace of the other one, it is the fight of the language there.

The kiss must be moderated, squeezed ( tightened ? ), pressed or sweet, according to the part of the body to which it is applied.

We can again arrange among the kisses the suction of the button or the nipple of the bosoms which, in the songs of Bayadères of the South of India, is mentioned as one of preliminary natural of the connection [ 23 ].

[ Note 23: according to the doctor Jules Guyot (_Bréviaire of the experimental love _), this suction must be strong to produce the deliberate effect (v. App.)]

When a woman kisses with the face her sleepy lover, this call ( appeal ? ) is _baiser which lights ( switches on ? ) amour_.

When a woman kisses her lover who is distracted or fussed, either scolds him ( it ? ), it is _baiser which ( who ? ) détourne_.

When the backward lover finds the slept mistress, and kisses her in his sleep to show him ( her ? ) his desire, it is _baiser of éveil_. In such a case, the woman can pretend to sleep in the arrival of her lover to provoke this kiss.

When we kiss the image of a person reflected in a mirror or in a water, either his ( her;its ? ) shadow concerned a wall, it is _baiser of déclaration_.

When we kiss a child that we like on the knees, or an image, or a statue, in the presence of the liked person, it is _baiser that one transmet_.

When at night, to the theater or in men's ( people ? ) assembly of caste, a man approaches a woman and kisses him ( her ? ) a finger of the hand, if she ( it ? ) is standing up, or a toe, if she sits; either when a woman, by massing ( massaging ? ) the body of her lover, put the figure on the thigh, as if she wanted to be made a pillow to sleep so as to light ( switch on ? ) her desire and kisses him ( her ? ) the thigh or the big finger of the foot, it is _baiser of provocation_.

About these kisses we quote the following verses:

« Something that one of the lovers made the other one, this one has to return him ( her ? ) the same: to kiss to kiss, caresses ( cherishes ? ) for caress, tit for tat. »
