Does beware exist as anything other than an imperative?

i guess that makes sense, but then, why is beware always used as a warning, ya know? Like, one would say, "be aware of the time" and not beware of the time, whereas one would say "Be wary of the dog" as "Beware of the dog."

I have known my dear connie way to damned long. *pout*
