He kisses her.
               So much for Nestor.



              ACHILLES
               I’ll take that winter from your lips, fair lady.
                                                                                                He kisses her.
               Achilles bids you welcome. [25]




              MENELAUS
               I had good argument for kissing once.



              PATROCLUS
               But that’s no argument for kissing now;
               For thus popped Paris in his hardiment,
               And parted thus you and your argument.

                                                                                                He kisses her.


              ULYSSES

               (aside) O deadly gall, and theme of all our scorns, [30]
               For which we lose our heads to gild his horns.



              PATROCLUS
               The first was Menelaus’ kiss; this, mine −
                                                                                       He kisses her again.
               Patroclus kisses you.




              MENELAUS
                               O, this is trim!



              PATROCLUS
               Paris and I kiss evermore for him.



              MENELAUS
               I’ll have my kiss, sir. − Lady, by your leave. [35]



              CRESSIDA
               In kissing, do you render or receive?
