COMPARISON RHYME.
BY JOHN F. MYERS.
Wild as a hawk, meek as a lamb;
Gentle as a dove, happy as a clam.
Brave as a lion, strong as an ox;
Fierce as a tiger, cunning as a fox.
Nimble as 11 sq niiTel. spry as a cat:
Proud as a peacock, gray as a rat.
Red Ihttuh us an oyster, ripe as a cherry;
as a lobster, brown ns a berry.
Wise as an owl. black as a crow;
Bright as a button, dull as a hoe.
Rich as a Jew, dirty as a pig:
Dizzy as a coot, merry as a grig.
Fine as a fiddle, cold as a frog;
Fresh -as a daisy, tired as a dog.
Still as a mouse, bright as a. spoon;
Deaf as a post, crazy as a loon.
Sound as a nut, cross as a bear;
Mad as a batter, or a Marcli hare;
Grave as a judge, wise as a seer;
Gay as a lark, swift as a deer.
Quick as a flash, fair as the^dawn;
Mute as a fisli: timid as a fawn.
Keeu as a razor, dull as the times;
Old as the bills, or as t hese rhymes.
