132 INFANT DYING AS SOON AS BORN That round her everywhere are flying ; Ostents from which she may presume.
That much of Heaven is in the room.
Skirting her own bright hair they run, And to the sunny add more sun : Now on that aged face they fix, Streaming from the Crucifix ; The flesh-clogg'd spirit disabusing.
Death-disarming sleeps infusing, Prelibations, foretastes high.
And equal thoughts to live or die.
Gardener bright from Eden's bower, Tend with care that lily flower ; To its leaves and... root infuse Heaven's sunshine. Heaven's dews.
'Tis a type, and 'tis a pledge.
Of a crowning privilege.
Careful as that lily flower.
This Maid must keep her precious dower ; Live a sainted Maid, or die Martyr to virginity.
1827.
ON AN INFANT DYING AS SOON AS BORN I SAW where in the shroud did lurk A curious frame of Nature's work.
A flow'ret crushed in the bud, A nameless piece of Babyhood, 133 POEMS Was in a cradle-coffin lying ; Extinct, with scarce the sense of dying ; So soon to exchange the imprisoning womb For darker closets of the tomb !
