The Man of Sorrows and a Distant Ballad Scene
Fragmented verse and prose passages recount a biblical scene of Jesus calming a storm with "Peace be still" alongside a long, wandering narrative about Miss Betty and a doctor, interwoven with excerpts from a political letter exchange between Gen. Lacock and Gen. Jackson. The piece blends poetry, anecdote, and historical correspondence in an ornate, imperfect historical miscellany.
