May 11th 2022, the 10th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
Octáva Solémnitas sancti Joseph, Sponsi beátæ Maríæ Vírginis, Confessóris et universális Ecclésiæ Patróni.
At Rome, upon the Salarian Way, the blessed Priest Anthimus. After he had done excellently well in power and preaching, he was thrown into the Tiber during the persecution under Diocletian, and thence delivered by an angel, who brought him back to his own oratory but he was lastly beheaded, and so passed into heaven as a conqueror.
Upon the same day, the holy martyr Evellius. He was one of Nero's household, who believed on Christ on seeing the passion of the holy martyr Torpes, and was therefore beheaded.
Also at Rome, the holy martyrs Maximus, Bassus, and Fabius, who were killed upon the Salarian Way, in the persecution under Diocletian.
At Camarino, the holy martyrs Anastasius and his Companions, who were put to death under Antiochus the President, in the persecution under Decius.
At Osimo, in Picenum, the holy martyrs Sisinnius the Deacon, Diocletius, and Florence, disciples of the holy Priest Anthimus, who finished their testimony by being stoned to death, in the persecution under Diocletian.
At Varennes, [in the eighth century,] the holy martyr Gangulph.
At Vienne, [toward the end of the fifth century,] the holy Mamertus, Bishop [of that see,] who, on account of a threatening volcanic eruption, instituted in that city the solemn Rogation processions upon the three days before the Ascension of the Lord, the which custom the Universal Church hath since approved by adopting it.
At Sauvigny, [in the year 994,] deceased holy Majolus, Abbot of Cluny, whose life was illustrious for holy and worthy deeds.
At the town now called San Severino, in Picenum, the holy Confessor Illuminatus.
In the town of Grotaglia, in the Diocese of Taranto, [in the year 1716,] the holy Confessor Francis di Girolamo, of the Society of Jesus, an example of singular love and patience in seeking the salvation of souls. Pope Gregory XVI enrolled his name with those of the Saints. His burial is commemorated with great solemnity in the church of the Professed House of his Order at Naples, where his body lieth.
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.
