Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
Seek
 
        Seeking, like a bleating lamb
Left out at night in shutting up the fold.
            —Elizabeth Barrett Browning		  1
  Seeks as does an old tailor his needle’s eye.
            —Dante		  2
As rivers seek the sea,
Much more deep than they,
So my soul seeks Thee
Far away.
            —Christina Georgina Rossetti		  3
