Stephen Crane


Curled and writhed like a snake stepped upon.	1
Dangle like a broken bough.	2
Dripping like a laborer in a foundry.	3
Fight like hell-roosters.	4
Gave a glance as from the depths of a tomb.	5
Involved like a cart involved in mud and muddle.	6
Scold like a wet parrot.	7
Stooped like sprinters before a signal.	8
Stumbled like fat sheep.	9
Sweeping along like the Huns.	10
