ight without a breath Sweet as music she spoke Sweet as the rain at noon Sweet as the smile of a fairy Swift as a swallow heading south Swift as lightning Swift as the panther in triumph Swifter than the twinkling of an eye T Talking and thinking became to him like the open page of a monthly magazine Tall lance-like reeds wave sadly o'er his head That like a wounded snake drags its slow length along The anemone that weeps at day-break, like a silly girl before her lover The army blazed and glowed in the golden sunlight like a mosaic of a hundred thousand jewels The army like a witch's caldron seethed The beating of her heart was like a drum The beauty of her quiet life was like a rose in blowing The billows burst like cannon down the coast The birds swam the flood of air like tiny ships The boat cuts its swift way through little waves like molten gold and opal The boom of the surf grew ever less sonorous, like the thunder of a retreating storm The breast-plate of righteousness The breathless hours like phantoms stole away The breeze is as a pleasant tune The calm white brow as calm as earliest morn The camp fire reddens like angry skies The chambers of the house were haunted by an incessant echoing, like some dripping cavern The church swarmed like a hive The city is all in a turmoil; it boils like a pot of lentils The clouds that move like spirits o'er the welkin clear [welkin = sky] The clustered apples burnt like flame The colored bulbs swung noon-like from tree and shrub The crimson close of day The curl'd moon was like a little feather The curling wreaths like turbans seem The dark hours are swept away like crumbling ashes The dark mass of her hair shook round her like a sea The dawn is rising from the sea, like a white lady from her bed The dawn had whitened in the mist like a dead face The dawn with silver-sandaled feet crept like a frightened girl. The day stunned me like light upon some wizard way The day was sweeter than honey and the honey-comb The day have trampled me like armed men The dead past flew away over the fens like a flight of wild swans The deep like one black maelstrom round her whirls The deepening east like a scarlet poppy burnt The desolate rocky hills rolled like a solid wave along the horizon The dome of heaven is like one drop of dew The dreams of poets come like music heard at
