Excerpt from The Liturgical Year: The Time After Pentecost, Vol; I This section of the Liturgical Year, which com prises a little more or a little less than six months, according as Easter is early or late, has always had the character it holds at present. But, although it only admits detached solemnities and Feasts, the in uence of the moveable portion of the Cycle is still observable. It may have as many as twenty eight, or as few as twenty-three weeks. This varia tion depends not only upon the Easter Feast, which may occur on any of the days between the 22nd of March and 25th of April, inclusively; but, also, on the date of the first Sunday of Advent, the open ing of a new Ecclesiastical Year, and which is always the Sunday nearest the Kalends of December.
