How is the central character Lizabeth of "Marigolds" by Eugenia W. Collier transformed through her conflict?

Lizabeth unleashes her fury on the marigolds, trampling them and uprooting them from the ground. As her rage and sadness runs its course, she looks up to see an equally devastated Miss Lottie standing over her...


It is at this moment that Lizabeth sees with the eyes of adulthood, with eyes of compassion, and she knows that the innocence of her childhood is gone forever.
