A fragmentary 1849 Marshall poem laments a broken heart and lost wealth. The speaker warns that touch cannot restore what is gone, comparing a broken string to vanished love, and urges gentle chord, final rest, and enduring sorrow.
A fragmented tale contrasts two youths Walter Cunningham and Peter Whitney amid a park setting and a noble heir. A white dove appears as a guiding symbol, urging virtue, while a serpent tempts power, wealth, and social rank. The narrative traces class conflict, moral choices, and a mentor-like figure urging justice and compassion for the oppressed.
