For convenience the subjects are grouped as “Royal Children,” “Child Artists,” “Learned Children,” “Devoted Children,” “Child Martyrs,” and “Heroic Children,” and the names of the “two little princes,” Louis XVII., Mozart, St. Genevieve, David, and Joan of Arc are here, as well as those of many more.
