That Treason thus could sell us,
My auld grey head had lien in clay,

Such a parcel of rogues in a nation!"

"We, gathered as the Scottish Constitutional Convention, do hereby acknowledge the sovereign right of the Scottish people to determine the form of Government best suited to their needs" - Claim of Right, 1989
