History of Glasgow; and of Paisley, Greenock, and Port-Glasgow; Comprehending The Ecclesiastical and Civil History of these Places, From the earliest Accounts to the present Time: And including An Account of their Population, Commerce, Manufactures, Arts, and Agriculture. By Andrew Brown. Here, while around, the wave-subjected soil Impels the native to repeated toil, Industrious habits in each bosom reign, And industry begets a love of gain. Hence all the good from opulence that springs, With all those ills superfluous treasure brings, Are here display'd. Their much lov'd wealth imparts Convenience, plenty, elegance, and arts. Goldsmith
