The rank is but the guinea's stamp.
The man's the gowd for a' that.
A prince can mak' a belted knight,
A marquis, duke, and a that:
But an honest man's aboon his might,
Guid faith, he maunna fa' that.
The Cotter's Saturday Night.
He wales a portion with judicious care;
And "Let us worship God!" he says, with solemn air.
