- Oh, you my dear 'tis true as life,
- And art can do no more,
- It is so very much like you.
- I've kiss'd it o'er and o'er.

- It kiss'd you in return?

- The picture kiss'd me! now my dear
- You surely are in fun,
- For though I kiss it o'er and o'er,
- It never pays me one.

- Ha, then you're wrong, I've caught you now,
- And you will quite agree,
- That if it never kisses back,
- 'Tis not at all like me.
