Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
Hans Christian Andersen
 
  Beaming like stars.  1
  She was delicate and fair as moonlight.  2
  Light as flake of foam.  3
  Puffed himself up like a ship in full sail.  4
  Straight as a candle.  5
  Transparent as a veil.  6
  Trembled as though she were going to commit a wicked action.  7
  Vanished altogether, like the last spark on a burnt piece of paper.  8
