- : the main character in John Lyly's works Euphues, the Anatomy of Wit, and Euphues and His England.

Again, in Lyly's "Euphues," p. 33: "That far fet and deere bought, is good for ladies."
In 1580 appeared the second part, Euphues and his England, and six editions of the whole work were printed before 1598.
Euphues and his England appeared in 1580, and, like the first part of the book, won immediate popularity.
Euphues himself, however, is very soon forsaken for a more attractive suitor.
The remainder of the book is filled up with correspondence between Euphues and his friends.
