    "As weak as a sop.
    As weak as a rush.
    As slow as a snail.
    As good as gold.
    As stupid as a donkey.
    As thick as a double ditch.
    As straight as a whip.
    As swift as a top.
    As holy as a strainer.
    As wild as a March hare.
    As cold as ice.
    As cute as fox.
    As cute as the devil.
    As cross as a bag of cats.
    As crooked as a rams horn.
