Voluntaries

In this age of fops and toys,
wanting wisdom void of right,
Who shall nerve heoric boys to give all in freedoms' fight.

I beleive this was written by Walt Whitman.
Does anyone know of it?

May events prove better than our vision

VOLUNTARIES by Ralph Waldo Emerson

III.

In an age of fops and toys,
Wanting wisdom, void of right,
Who shall nerve heroic boys
To hazard all in Freedom's fight, --

Henry
