Anotations

Scope note:

Consecrated, relatively small stiffened squares of linen used to cover the top of the chalice. The purpose of the pall is to keep dust and insects from falling into the Eucharistic elements. For larger, softer coverings over both chalice and paten in transportation, use "chalice veils."
