            —Oriental Proverb		  2
  Chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
            —Old Testament		  3
  Chased away as a vision of the night.
            —Old Testament		  4
  Chased you, as bees do.
            —Old Testament		  5
  Chasing like fire.
            —George John Whyte-Melville		  6
