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

Dion Boucicault

How absurd you must have looked with your legs and arms in the air, like a shipwrecked tea-table.

Affection, like the nut within the shell, wants freedom.

Black as a young rook.

A red bag, fat with your unpaid bills, like a landing net.

Stick to her point like a fox to his own tail.

As wild as game in July.
