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

William H. Prescott

Adventurous as a paladin of romance.

Enveloped, like a martyr’s robe of flames.

Howlings, like a herd of ravenous wolves disappointed of their prey.

Slaughtered like cattle in the shambles.

Thick as rain-drops.

Vanished, like the airy fabric of an Eastern tale.
