Frank J. Wilstach, comp. A Dictionary of Similes. 1916.

Robert Jephson

Bright as ruddy meteors through the sky.

Expectation, like a fiery steed, anticipates the course, and pants to hear the sprightly signal start him for the goal.

Fear on fear, like light reflected from the dancing wave, visits all places, but can rest in none.

Firm as Atlas.

Inviolable as recorded oaths.

Resistless as a flash that strikes from Heaven.

Shaking like pent up winds.

Sped like plagues and pestilences.
