The rhino is a homely beast,
For human eyes he's not a feast.
Farewell, farewell, you old rhinoceros,
I'll stare at something less prepoceros.
Ogden Nash
(I think the rhinoceros shares my opinion that Nash is wrong about his homeliness).
"Good, then, he would go a journey. Not far - not all the way to the tigers." ~ Thomas Mann, Death in Venice
