Common sense compels us to believe that the whole affair was merely a ruse by which Yale, with true Reynardian craft, hoped to win the cup.

This was Mr. Fox's position ; but he was not a man to submit tamely to an adverse fate — even the fox when driven to the wall will show his teeth — and his human name-sake was not false to this Reynardian quality.

The Chabon kid had that Reynardian way of looking inattentive when he was measuring someone—in this case, my mother—to the millimeter.
