Frank J. Wilstach, comp. A Dictionary of Similes. 1916.
Thomas Shadwell
Her dazzle like the sun in his Meridian.Dive, like ducks.Lean as a skeleton.A wise man is never disappointed. Man’s life is like a game at tables; if at any time the cast you most shall need does not come up, let that which comes instead of it be mended by your play.Moody as a poet.As ridiculous as to venture your life for another man’s quarrel.Snores like the base-pipe of an Organ.Thin as a skeleton.Troublesome as a monkey.Witless as a jackdaw.
