Elias: An Epic of the Ages

"Elias: An Epic of the Ages" by Orson F. Whitney is a book-length poem written between 1900 and 1914. Described by its author as an attempt to present Mormonism in verse form, the work unfolds across ten cantos using various poetic forms. It spans from the Council in Heaven through Christ's ministry, the Great Apostasy, Joseph Smith's revelations, the Book of Mormon, and the westward migration of the Saints, culminating in a vision of their prophetic destiny.
