Which preposition to use with collet
I counted about a hundred and eight pale rubies in collets about this throne, the least whereof weighed a hundred carats.
Thus at Lapworth, Warwickshire, a trust of parish lands was re-created in 1563 with twenty-two feoffees; and one Collet in 1567 enfeoffed seventeen men of a field of only three acres, fourteen perches, to parish uses.
A great genius must tread in unbeaten paths, and deviate from the common road of life; otherwise a diamond of so much lustre might have been publickly produced, although it had been fixed within the collet of matrimony: But that which diminished the value of this inestimable jewel in Swift's eye was the servile state of her father.
I can't think how the owners ever appointed Collet to the command; he is not one of their own officers.
