Frank J. Wilstach, comp. A Dictionary of Similes. 1916.

Baron Karl F. H. von Münchausen

Blushing like a summer morning.

Driven forth like a sky-rocket.

Floating in the air like so many spiders upon their cobwebs.

Globular like a hazel-nut.

Horrible, like the shrieks of witches.

Passed along the waves like the chariot of Neptune.

Pendant like berries on the branches.

Roars like a bull.

Twines round it as the ivy does the ash.

Quiet as at anchor in a dead calm.
