Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
Anacreon
 
  Blooming as health.  1
  Dumb as Philomel.  2
  Fresh as May-flowers.  3
Light as the leaf that summer’s breeze
Has wafted o’er the glassy seas.
  4
  A lip like Persuasion’s, calling on us to kiss it.  5
  Like the wine and roses, smiles.  6
Soft as the broken solar beam,
That trembles in the solar stream.
  7
