INDICTION OF THE NEXT SESSION.

This sacred and holy synod hath also resolved and decreed that the next ensuing session be held and celebrated on Thursday, the fifth day after the coming Sunday in Albis,^[1] which will be the 21st of the month of April of the present year, 1547.

↑ I.e. Low Sunday. "In Latin, it is called 'Dominica in Albis, or rather post Albas (sc. depositas), as some ritualists call it, i.e the Sunday of putting off the chrysoms; because those that were baptized on Easter-eve on this day laid aside those white robes, or chrysoms, which were put upon them at their baptism, and which were now laid up in the churches, that they might be produced as evidences against them if they should afterwards violate or deny that faith which they had professed in their baptism."—"Wheatly on the Common Prayer, ch. y. sec. ziz.
