Beat egg white to soft peaks and fold into cream along with remaining ingredients. Spoon into center of melon mold, cover, and freeze overnight. Unmold on a serving platter, loosening, if neccesary, by running wrung out hot cloth over botten of mold. Decorate, if you like. To serve, cut in wedges. -----
