As grey as a goat.
As crooked as a ram's horn.

As long as a bad year.
As drunk as a piper.
As sober as a judge.
As fat as a bull.
As round as a globe.
As white as a sheet.
As quiet as an ass.
As bright as the day-light.
As hard as a rock.
As sour as vinegar.
As dark as a dungeon.(continues on next page)
