ON AN UGLY FELLOW by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "BEWARE, MY FRIEND! OF CRYSTAL BROOK"
Last Line: AS SELF-ENAMOURED HE
Subject(s): UGLINESS;

BEWARE, my friend! of crystal brook,
Or fountain, lest that hideous hook,
Thy nose, thou chance to see;
Narcissus' fate would then be thine,
And self-detested thou wouldst pine,
As self-enamoured he.
