| Deadly as the sting of satire. | 1 |
| Deep as the murmurs of the falling floods. | 2 |
| Delusive as a midnight dream. | 3 |
| As keen as anguish. | 4 |
| Loose as … negligence. | 5 |
| Then sinks, as beauty fades and passion cools, The scorn of coxcombs, and the jest of fools. | 6 |
| Soft as love. | 7 |
| Sweet as the warbles of the vocal woods. | 8 |
| Wild and capricious as the wind and wave. | 9 |
