Its likewise for certain lines that the scots don't like in Rule Britannia.

Well it is a verse of Gad Save the Queen we find rather objectional. This one to be exact:

Lord grant that Marshal Wade
May by thy mighty aid
Victory bring.
May he sedition hush,
And like a torrent rush,
Rebellious Scots to crush.
God save the Queen

I don't find any strange line, after all isn't crushing Scots, the English Hobby by excelence??

Eh not quite, it is a reference to the crushing of the '45. Since the the majority of the government army was made up of Scottish troops it seems a particularly ironic line if you ask me.

I was talking about this line:

The nations, not so blest as thee,
Must, in their turns, to tyrants fall:
While thou shalt flourish great and free,
The dread and envy of them all.

What's up with this line?

But the line is about crushing rebellious Scots.

No, seriously. It could be good.
