Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
John Brougham
 
  My heart bounds like an imprisoned bird against its wiry barrier.  1
  Features are as calm as marble.  2
  Flitting like motes in the sunbeam.  3
  Preposterous … as natural color upon a fashionable cheek.  4
  Stunning as a shock of electricity.  5
