Easter.

The question being frequently asked
why is Easter movable feast--whal
rule governs itP' the following from thu
Roman calendar will be of interest to all
The first council of Nice, held in the
year H25, declared that the feast of Eas tel
should be celebrated on the Sunday fol
lowing the full moon, which falls either
Oh the 2lst of March (Which was looked
upon at that time as the day of the equi,
nox) or on the day following, till the 18th
of April.
Hence, If the full moon fell on the 21st
Of March, and this be a Saturday, the
next day will be an Easter Sunday. But
if it fall on the Goth this moon will not be
considered the paschal moon; the next
full moon only, which will be on the 18Th
of April, can be reckoned such.
