Moveable feasts.
*** An error under the above title having crept into the Every-Day Book, at [p. 190], and also extended to the [list] of “Moveable feasts,” the reader will please to correct that list, &c. by the following statement.
Shrove Sunday is the Sunday next before Shrove Tuesday. It is also called Quinquagesima Sunday.
Shrove Tuesday is always the seventh Tuesday before Easter-day.
Care, or Carle Sunday is the fifth Sunday in Lent, and the second Sunday before Easter-day.
Maundy Thursday, also called Chare or Shere Thursday, is the day before Good Friday.
Good Friday is the Friday in Passion-week, and consequently the Friday next before Easter-day.
Easter-day is always the first Sunday after the first full moon, which happens on or next after the 21st of March; but if the full moon happens upon a Sunday, Easter-day is the Sunday following.
