This pro- cess took centuries, and the relig- ious holiday was assimilated to the secular seasonal occasion ra- ther than the reverse.

8. The now traditional "forty days" Lenten (spring) fasting is first historically mentioned ln the Council of Nicaea. 325 A. D. But it was then chiefly a. season of preparation (discipline of life-ha- bit) for baptism (then for adults only): of preparation for absolu- tion of sins by the Church: or a. season c! “retrea-t" and "recollec- tlon" — fasting was a factor in this preparation but not strenu- ously enforced or observed.

9. The Lenten observance differs somewhat. in the Orthodox and the Roman Catholic Churches. The former separates it from Holy Week and its preparations.

10. At the Reformation of tnc Church in the 16th. century it was retained by some of the Re- formed Churches and is stil‘ strongly observed in the Anglican and Lutheran Churches. In Eng- land it was observed as early as 659 A. D., and “as so by law till late in the 17th. century.
