On an Infant which died before Baptism by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Performed by
Samuel Taylor ColeridgeOn an Infant which died before Baptism Annotated
'Be, rather than be called, a child of God,'
Death whispered! With assenting nod,
Its head upon its mother's breast,
 The Baby bowed, without demur—
Of the kingdom of the Blest
 Possessor, not Inheritor.
