Bibliographic Sources
Within ‘The Sights of Glasgow’, Charles Watson, c1850:
“Then there’s brave Nelson’s monument that’s in your spacious Green,
Where lads and lasses go to court, and boys for fighting keen
And coming nearer this a bit the Queen’s Theatre you may see
Where they murder Shakspere night for the very smallest fee.” (Search ‘Queen’s Theatre’)
