Quintodécimo Kaléndas Iúlii Luna décima séptima Anno Dómini 2022
June 17th 2022, the 17th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
In England, the holy Abbot Botolph.
At Rome, two hundred and sixty two holy martyrs, who were slain for Christ's faith's sake in the persecution under Diocletian, and were buried at Cucumber Hill, upon the old Salarian Way.
At Tarracina, the holy soldier Montanus, who, after many torments, received the crown of martyrdom under Hadrian the Emperor and Leontius the Consular.
At Venafro, the holy martyrs Nicander and Marcian, who were beheaded in the persecution under Maximian.
At Chalcedon, the holy martyrs Manuel, Sabel, and Ishmael. They were envoys who had been sent by the King of Persia to Julian the Apostate to treat for peace. Julian commanded them to worship idols, and, forasmuch as they steadfastly refused so to do, he caused them to be slain with the sword.
At Apollonia, in Macedonia, the holy martyrs Isaurus a Deacon, Innocent, Felix, Jeremiah, and Peregrine, Athenians, who were in diverse ways tormented and then beheaded, under the Tribune Tripontius.
At Amelia, in Umbria, [in the sixth century,] the holy Himerius, Bishop [of that see,] whose body was taken to Cremona, [five hundred years later.]
In Berry, [also in the sixth century,] holy Gundulph, Bishop [of that see.]
At Orleans, [in the year 530,] the holy Priest and Confessor Avitus.
In Phrygia, [in the fifth century,] the holy Confessor Hypatius.
Also, [in the year 1160,] the holy Hermit Bessarion.
At Pisa, in Tuscany, [in the year 1160,] the holy Confessor Rainerius.
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.
