As dead as a maggot.
As hot as fire.
As tender as a chicken .

As blue as indigo.
As cracked as a goat.
As round as a ball.
As red as a fox.
As round as a hoop.
As long as a ha'porth of twine.
As tight as twopence.
As sour as a crab.
As old as a bush.
As holy as a strainer.
As heavy as lead.(continues on next page)- Collector
