Excerpt from The Sport of Chance, Vol. 2 of 3
Slowly the busy and turbulent streets on either side the Broomielaw were obscured, despite their glare of light; then the ships and steamers moored close to the bridge became no longer discernible by means of the red lanterns at their bows and on their masts; but for a time there was a constant fusion in the fog of an orange-red glow, surging closer apparently, and then fading flickeringly into a lurid, sombre hue, but with intervals, pulse-like in frequency and regularity.
