Excerpt from Whitman's Ideal Democracy, and Other Writings: With a Biography by the Editor, Helen Tufts Give all to love; Obey thy heart; Friends, kindred, days, Estate, good-fame, Plans, credit, and the Muse, - Nothing refuse. "'Tis a brave master; Let it have scope: Follow it utterly, Hope beyond hope: High and more high It dives into noon, With wing unspent, Untold intent: But it is a god, Knows its own path And the outlets of the sky.
