[Footnote
87:
Glasgow
Green.--J.
C.
S.]
The
shops
at
Glasgow
are
large,
and
like
London
shops,
and
we
passed
by
the
largest
coffee-room
I
ever
saw.
You
look
across
the
piazza
of
the
Exchange,
and
see
to
the
end
of
the
coffee-room,
where
there
is
a
circular
window,
the
width
of
the
room.
Perhaps
there
might
be
thirty
gentlemen
sitting
on
the
circular
bench
of
the
window,
each
reading
a
newspaper.
They
had
the
appearance
of
figures
in
a
fantoccine,
or
men
seen
at
the
extremity
of
the
opera-house,
diminished
into
puppets.
I
am
sorry
I
did
not
see
the
High
Church:
both
William
and
I
were
tired,
and
it
rained
very
hard
after
we
had
left
the
bleaching-ground;
besides,
I
am
less
eager
to
walk
in
a
large
town
than
anywhere
else;
so
we
put
it
off,
and
I
have
since
repented
of
my
irresolution.
