girl of eleven years, upon the ole
adage that Handsome is that hand
some does: :"
Don't fall in love with face,
Because you think its pretty;
Often this has some one failed
Because the face was witty.
The heart is of more value,
Than pretty face, by far;
Look more for a pure life,
And find the treasures there.
If you obey my instructions,
My mind you will relieve;
And take for yourself the motto,
Looks often times deceive.
