Etymology
Inherited from Middle English Alhalwemesse, from Old English ealra hālgena mæsse, from eall + halga + mæsse; literally, “the mass of all the saints”. By surface analysis, all + hallow (“saint, holy person”) + -mas (“mass, church festival, holiday”); compare Christmas, Marymas / Marymass, and Michaelmas.
