Gleaming and beautiful,
All polished silver -
I am the hope
That brings you to the river - Gondolin again
But temper desire:
I'll be your demise. - via poisonous sharp shaft
Once caught, you'll reject me.
Take the master's advice. - "Return to your dwelling, for my heart warns me that if you follow those who love you no longer, you'll never return there again."

Erm... so what is your answer? Who is the speaker? Who is spoken to?
