Prídie Nonas Octóbris Luna duodevicesima Anno Domini 2020
October 6th 2020, the 18th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
In Calabria, (in the year 1101,) the holy Confessor Bruno, Founder of the Order of Monks of the Charterhouse.
At Laodicea, the blessed martyr Sagaris, Bishop (of that see,) who was one of the disciples of the Apostle Paul.
At Capua, (in the fourth century,) the holy martyrs Marcellus, Castus, Emilius, and Saturninus.
At Agen, in Gaul, (towards the end of the third century,) the holy Virgin and martyr Faith, by whose example blessed Caprasius was so stirred up to suffer martyrdom, that he finished his contending with joy.
Likewise the holy martyr Erotis, in whom the love of Christ was so kindled that she triumphed over the flames of fire.
At Trier is kept the memorial of a great multitude of martyrs, which man can scarcely number, who for Christ's faith's sake were put to death in diverse ways by the President Rictiovarus in the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian.
At Auxerre, the holy martyr Romanus, Bishop (of that see, who succeeded Eleutherius and was Bishop three years.)
At Oderzo, (about the year 660,) holy Magnus, Bishop (of that see,) whose body lieth at Venice.
At Naples, (in the year 1791,) holy Mary Frances, of the Five Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ, of the Third Order of Bare-footed Friars Minor of St. Peter of Alcantara, she was famous for graces and miracles, and Pope Pius IX. enrolled her name among those of the holy virgins.
V. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
R. Thanks be to God.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
