Dear Maryann
The latest edition of his poems to have been supervised directly by Wilbur is the UK edition published by the Waywiser Press in 2005. This updates and corrects the previous Harcourt edition, which is faulty in several respects. (I had a hand in preparing the edition, which was checked by three proof-readers and by Wilbur.)
In the Waywiser edition the line in question reads “For stony hearts of men”, which in this case agrees with Harcourt. (It also agrees with the New and Collected of 1988.)
I hope this is helpful.
Kind regards…
Clive
