Book Description
Excerpt from Intensifying Similes in English: Inaugural Dissertation It was originally my intention to start an inquiry on a rather large scale, but my attempts in this direction soon made it evident that, owing to causes needless to dwell upon, postal conditions and other circumstances would not make such an inquiry an unqualified success. Nevertheless I have to thank Miss Edith Underwood, of Durham, and several correspondents of Notes Queries for many valuable replies.

Hence his similes are of peculiar interest; and they seemed to be worth grouping together and illustrating from other and later poets, especially from our own.

Book Description
Excerpt from Simile and Metaphor: In the English and Scottish Ballads At the courts of our earlier Scottish kings, and at the mansions of the principal nobility minstrelsy was a favourite pastime. And the minstrel, wherever he went, be it to castle or cottage, received a ready or most hospitable wel come. His song, besides, paid for food and lodging.
