April 10.

St. Bademus, Abbot, A.D. 376. B. Mechtildes, Virgin and Abbess, after 1300.

LOW SUNDAY.

The Sunday after Easter-day is called Low Sunday, because it is Easter-day repeated, with the church-service somewhat abridged or lowered in the ceremony from the pomp of the festival the Sunday before.
