Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
George Cabot Lodge
 
  Black as sightless eyes.  1
  Empty as an idiot’s mind.  2
  Hueless as young ivory.  3
  Lurid as hell.  4
        Pale as is the face of one
Who sinks exhausted in oblivion after a night of deep debauchery.		  5
  Pale as light.  6
  Smooth as a silver shield.  7
  White as a live terror.  8
  Wild as a burst of day-gold blown through the colors of morning.  9
