These men standing around here know what you are you have been talking with them. Outside of stirring trouble, you don't work, do you?" "Oh yes, my lord!" There was smiling mockery in the tone, almost insolence. He seemed to be willing to display to the rich man the same lack of respect he had displayed to the poor men who stood near and listened to this colloquy. "Oh, you do?"
David was speaking, but so rapidly, and apparently so near to the other end of the room, that she could bear nothing. Then her father broke in, and by dint of straining very hard, she caught most of what he said before the whole colloquy came abruptly to an end. She heard Purcell's heavy tread descending the little iron spiral staircase leading from the lower shop to the upper.
I was thinking within myself how utterly inexplicable was my colloquy with the conjuror, so cavalierly dismissed by Monsieur Carmaignac as a "fool"; and the more I thought the more marvelous it seemed. "It certainly was an original joke, though not a very clear one," said Whistlewick. "Not even original," said Carmaignac.

And for thirty years he went on painting there, ever in colloquy with the angels, and ever having Anne-Marie beside him.
Like most men acquainted with the literature of a country, but not accustomed to daily conversation with its natives, the English words and fashion of periods that occurred to Volktman were rather those used in books than in colloquy; and a certain solemnity and slowness of tone accompanied with the frequent, almost constant use of the pronoun singular the thou and the thee, gave a strangeness and unfamiliar majesty to his dialect that suited well with the subjects on which he so loved to dwell.
And Slavin, engaged in shredding a pipeful of tobacco had mumbled absently "So? Ujin Airum! I du not mind th' ould shtiff fwhat was his reg'minthal number?" The sergeant finished his evidence; Kilbride swung round to his fellow-justice once more and they held a whispered consultation, the latter making emphatic gestures throughout the colloquy.
