Summary

In this quote, the speaker is expressing their desire for an endless and overwhelming abundance of kisses. They request a thousand kisses, followed by a hundred, and then repeat this pattern multiple times.

By "conturbabimus illa ne sciamus," which roughly translates to "let us confuse the count so that we lose track," the speaker wishes to indulge in the pleasure of such affection without being burdened by the quantification of it.
