For eons it has stood...a Guardian over an empty waste....waiting....waiting for a future....a future which Omniscience willed should unfold...It came...objectivity in the fleshly tabernacle...a Guardian...a founder...a brief term...a trek...a people in Zion...a Deseret...they needing guidance...a founder passed objectified in Time...to guide, direct, watch over,..guard. For ages it has seen a future pass...for ages it will stand... rich in inspiration...a symbol of FAITH a prophecy objectified in stone...THE GUARDIAN OF THE DESERT. By Frank A. Beckwith.
