  1. In an anagrammatic manner
    • 1886, Martin Farquhar Tupper, My Life as an Author:
      Now the words "Oh, Walter Hawkins, Esquire," makes anagrammatically, "W.H., who likes rare antiques!" exactly his idiosyncrasy as a man and a collector.
    • 2009 July 18, Mike Hale, “Gay Heroes and a Reptilian Monster, From the BBC”, in New York Times:
      The monster in this case is a reptilian, vomit- and blood-spewing thing in a glass tank that’s more reminiscent of “Alien” than of the dime-store concoctions on “Doctor Who,” the show from which “Torchwood” was anagrammatically spun off.
