This allocution, pronounced by advocate Desmarais with every appearance of great tenderness, moved the people. |
He began with an allocution pitched in a tone that would have justified revolt throughout empires. |
After that allocution, no one, not even a sub-lieutenant, had the courage to empty his glass. |

What the effect of this allocution would have been, unsupported by favouring circumstances, it is difficult to say. |
Our evening began with a reception, followed by a brief allocution of our guest and then a beautiful dinner. |
