x9 AM Allegra, the Happy Girl! I walk in a sunlit valley, and God has given me the green of Spring and the wind and flowers to be my happiness . . . I am the Girl of 1809 who studied first within these walls. I am the Girl of 1957 who studies now within these walls. I am all girls from all places who shall ever live between these high towered mountains . . . I am eternal-forever; and I am blessedefrom ever. For I am the spirit of Elizabeth Bayley Seton, the fruit of her labor-and her courage is my life. And I am a ray of the Mother of God, the lay of Her prayerse and Her love is in my heart . I am Allegra, now a woman whose growth has been reflected in the natural surroundings of my Valley. Come, walk with me for the last time down well-worn paths and through familiar fields undisturbed but by rustling breezes and the movement of the trees. Reminisce with me as I see my girlhood and my womanhood mirrored in the things of Nature. . . . WHEN first we made our pilgrimage here, the worldls trees were entering upon the twilight season of their yearly lives, while we who gazed upon them with gladdened eyes were still in the sweet spring of ours. W7 e were still girls, not yet women grown. Around us were the signs of that great God whose truth we had come seeking, to beg from Him the bread of never-ending life. The leaves of every tree proclaimed the greatness of His power, and the glory of His beauty. These things we saw, but did not fully understand. We were the present, and in our newness came to this place, seeking to partake of that same past of which these trees stood as living symbols. We held within ourselves the promise of the future, desirous of unfolding it beneath the sun of heavenly grace. Begun in time once present, ever looking on with equitable gaze, ever present, ever watching, seeing all the other Ctnowsf7 these trees watch girls as they come, each one different, yet all linked to others past and future by the unseen bond of spirit. In the soft spring of the year we planted a new green tree in the Valley9s soil, a symbol of our own new life and of the way that we would grow, digging roots deep into our faith, deep into the soil of life. As the tree would drink deep of the earth, so we would nourish our whole selves on food for body, mind, and spirit, slowly growing, ever changing, until, at length, we reached our full maturity.
