Parcel o` Rogues ================ Fareweel to a` oor Scottish fame Fareweel oor ancient glory Fareweel even tae oor Scottish name Sae famed in martial story Noo Sark runs o`er the Solway sands Tweed runs tae the ocean Tae mark wher e England`s province stands Such a parcel o` rogues in a nation What force or guile could not subdue Through many wor-like ages Is rocked now by the coward few For hireling traitor`s wages The English steel we could disdain Secure in valou r`s station But English gold has been oor bane Such a parcel o` rogues in a nation O would or I had seen the day That treason thus would sell us My old grey heid had lain in clay Wi` Bruce and loyal Wallace But pith and power till my last hour I`ll mak` this declaration We are bought and sold for English gold Such a parcel o` rogues in a nation [ Written by Robert Burns as a protest against the Act of Union, 1707, which joined the parliaments of England and Scotland. Although initially against the Act, the Scottish parliament soon agreed when offered a large pension each by the English government. The people had no say, and thus were `bought and sold for English gold`. They are still paying the price. ]
