The following is quoted from page 880 of the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer.

Easter Sunday is always the Sunday after the full moon that occurs on or
after the spring equinox on March 21.  This full moon may happen on any date
between March 21 and April 18 inclusive.  If the full moon falls on a Sunday,
Easter Day is the Sunday following.  But Easter Day cannot be earlier than
March 22 or later than April 25.

This is followed by a formula and table to get the date of any Easter
Sunday in this or the next century.
