Setting Portrays Grandeur of God Regis stands, a regal king, surrounded by its calm, majestic court of nature. Each earthly courtier stands supreme and staunch, a constant sentinel of beauty. But underneath each beauty lies an in- dividual gift, intangible yet real, which makes our campus more than acreage. At first we merely saw. Next we began to feel. Then finally, with our minds we strained to clutch each branch, each blade, each dawning day — to hold and keep a part of nature’s messenger. But as each messenger slipped through our grasp and firmly stayed for future wanderers in the owner’s garden, it left a gift so placed within our palm that we could fuse it into blood that Regis stirred to flow. We saw and loved and took — the dig- nity of trees, the humbleness of grass, the simplicity of snow, the courage of the wind, the gentleness of rain, the beauty of a flower. [ 17 ]
