The rank may be the guinea’s stamp,

The man’s the man for a’ that.

Ye see yon Dalkeith, ca’d a lord,

Wha tries to speak, and a’ that;

Tho’ hundreds worship at his word,

He’s nae sae great for a’ that;

For a’ that, and a’ that,

His ancestry, and a’ that;

The man o’ dauntless eloquence,

He comes and wins for a’ that.
