CSS selector: Is there a way to select every descendent except the first element?

Question

I have HTML that looks like this:

<div class="passage">
  <header>a bunch of stuff and elements here</header>
  text
  <div/>
  text
</div>

is there a CSS selector that will allow me to select everything in passage, excluding the header? In this example, it would give me this:

  text
  <div/>
  text

Try to give a class to your header e.g.:

<header class="header">a bunch of stuff and elements here</header>

And then try to select all elements in passage which don't have class .header:

.passage *:not(.header) {...}
