Frank J. Wilstach, comp. A Dictionary of Similes. 1916.
Camille Lemonnier
Bright as living coal.Glistened as the tears in a widow’s eyes.Hissed like a rocket.It is like eating vanilla cream in Paradise listening to beautiful music.Roared like water which rushes from a lock when the gates are open.Round as a quoit.Sparkled like white bait in the meshes of a net.Lamps twinkled like stars along the water’s edge.White as the face of the dead.An old man, wizened as a dried plaice.
