The supposed time of the visit of the angel Gabriel to Mary when he announced God's purpose of grace towards her. It was in 'the sixth month,' which, by comparing with Luke 1:36 , appears to date from his visit to Zacharias. Luke 1:26-38 . It was superstitiously made one of the festivals of the professing church, and falls on March 25, also called Lady-day.
