Beyond the guard was a lobby where the old folks sat.

But seriously, folks, we can't sit around here all day entertaining the troops, there's a war to be won.

Those folks below aren't just sitting on their hands.

At the far end the lesser folk sat on the floor in front of the big fireplaces.

Children and old folks and dogs sat on the porches watching us.

Ordinary folk did not sit in the presence of the great lord.

Only a few folk still sat on the cushions provided in front of the tiny stage.

On the benches several young folk sat clustered or apart.

Around the floor the old folks sat, smiling slightly, holding the children back from the floor.

I thought you folks on Ivory just sat under those domes and read dials.
