释义 | > as lemmaschrisom-cloth chrisom-cloth n. (see sense 2). chrisom-cloth 2. (In full, chrisom-cloth, chrisom-robe, etc.): A white robe, put on a child at baptism as a token of innocence: originally, perhaps merely a head-cloth, with which the chrism was covered up to prevent its being rubbed off. In the event of the child's death within a month from baptism, it was used as a shroud: otherwise it, or its estimated value, was given as an offering at the mother's purification.
