, the 7th or last day of the week, so called, as some have supposed, from the idol Seater, worshipped on this day by the ancient Saxons, and thought to be the same as the Saturn of the Latins. In astronomy, every day of the week is denoted by some one of the planets, and this day is marked with the planet Saturn. Saturday answers to the Jewish sabbath.
