 | The True Scots Genius, Reviving |  |
Rous'd from a Lethargy of hundred Years,
At last her Martial Head Old Scotia Rears:
Awakn'd with Resentments she hath born
Too long, of English Chains and English Scorn:
Impatient to get Free, she now Regains,
A gen'rous Heat, thro' all her frozen Veins:
Nobly resolv'd to break the servile Chain,
She Champs and Tuggs for LIBERTY again.
