Archbishop of Alexandria, When the Holy Epiphanies Happened to Fall on
a Sunday.

Canon I.
Because the fast of Epiphany chances to fall on a
Lord’s day, let us take a few dates, and so break our fast, and
honour the Lord’s day, and shew our dislike of heresy, and yet
not wholly neglect the fast which should be observed on this day;
eating no more till our evening assembly at three
afternoon.
