(alt-of)Alternative letter-case form of euphuist.
“There he found the Euphuist in the same elegant posture of abstruse calculation which he had exhibited on the preceding evening, his arms folded in the same angle, his eyes turned up to the same cobwebs, and his heels resting on the ground as before.”
“For a time, Euphuism had it all its own way. Elizabeth was the most affected and detestable of Euphuists; and “that beauty in Court which could not parley Euphuism,” a courtier of Charles the First’s time tells us, “was as little regarded as she that now there speaks not French.””
