释义 | Maundyn. 1. a. Originally (more fully Maundy ceremony): the ceremony of washing the feet of a number of poor people, performed by royal or other eminent people, or by ecclesiastics, on the Thursday before Easter (see Maundy Thursday n.), and commonly followed by the distribution of clothing, food, or money (now historical); also in extended use. Later (also Royal Maundy): the distribution of gifts of money to a number of chosen recipients by the British sovereign on Maundy Thursday. †to make (also keep, hold) one's Maundy: to perform a Maundy ceremony (obsolete).The distribution of gifts of money has been part of the Royal Maundy ceremony in England since the 13th cent. By the 16th cent. a specific amount of money and a purse to hold it had become part of the ceremony, and by the 18th cent. the Maundy distribution was made up of the four smallest silver coins, the 4, 3, 2, and 1 penny denominations. Maundy coins are still struck in silver in these denominations, and are presented alongside a gift in ordinary coinage.
