Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
Robert Nicoll
 
Blithe youth is like a smile,
So mirthful, and so brief.

Like mist upon the lea,
And like night upon the plain,
Old age comes o’er the heart.
  2
            My heart is stirred,
Like childhood’s when it hears the carol of a bird.
