The Second Sunday of Easter is the Octave Day of Easter (sometimes known as Low Sunday). That Sunday is also known historically as St. Thomas Sunday (especially among Eastern Christians), Quasimodo Sunday and Quasimodogeniti.....The name Quasimodo came from the Latin text of the traditional Introit for this day, which begins Quasi modo geniti infantes... from 1 Peter 2:2,[1] roughly translated as As newborn babes, desire the rational milk without guile... [1Pt 2:2] Literally, quasi modo means as if in [this] manner. ...Well, at least thats what Wikipedia says.
