- As high minded as the goats in Kerry
As cracked as a goat
Like a bull in a china shop
As silly as a fool
As blind as a bat
As crooked as a ram's horns
As sure footed as an ass
As slippery as an eel
As lazy as sin
As honest as the day
As sharp as a needle
As cute as a fox
As true as steel
As wrong as Moll bell
As big a fish in the sea as ever was caught
As ugly as sin
Too sweet to be wholesome
As proud as Lucifer
As rich as a Jew
As happy as a queen
As neat as a new pin
As poor as a church mouse
As tall as a house
Too big for his boots(continues on next page)- Collector
