HIS FACE IS HIS FORTUNE.

Reading edition

"His face is his fortune;" Yes, seldom we see One for "tick" importune, As boldly as he. Like one who has riches Acquired by gift, He laughs at the stitches Of gainer by thrift, For face is his treasure, And why keep in bank? One cannot find pleasure With pocket-book lank. So credit he uses Where'er it will pass, And always abuses The laboring class. But "cheek" is like iron That's coated with tin, It has a nice face on, But one rather thin.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
