Décimo Kaléndas Septémbris Luna vicésima quinta Anno Dómini 2022
The morrow is the eve of the holy Apostle Bartholomew.
August 23rd 2022, the 25th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Todi, [in Umbria, in the year 1285,] the holy Confessor Philip Benizi of Florence, a man of eminent lowliness, who greatly spread the Order of Servants of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and whose name Pope Clement X added to the list of those of the Saints.
At Antioch, [in the fourth century,] the holy martyrs Restitutus, Donatus, Valerian, and Fructuosa, along with twelve others, who were crowned with the glory of an illustrious testimony.
At Ostia, [in the third century,] the holy martyrs Quiriacus, Bishop [of that see,] the Priest Maximus, the Deacon Archelaus, and their Companions, who suffered under the Prefect Ulpian, in the time of the Emperor Alexander.
At Aegaea, in Cilicia, the holy brethren Claudius, Asterius, and Neon, all martyrs. They were accused of Christianity by their step-mother, in the time of the Emperor Diocletian, and were first severely tortured, and then crucified, under the President Lysias, and so triumphed as conquerors with Christ. After them suffered Donvina and Theonilla.
At Reims, in Gaul, [in the third century,] the holy martyrs Timothy and Apolinaris, who there finished their testimony and gained the Kingdom of Heaven.
At Lyon, [in the third century,] the holy martyrs Minervus and Eleazar, with eight children.
Likewise, the holy martyr Luppus, who was a slave, but free in Christ, and received also the crown of martyrdom.
At Jerusalem, [in the second century,] holy Zachaeus, the fourth Bishop from the blessed Apostle James who governed that Church.
At Alexandria, [in the year 300,] the holy Confessor Theonas, Pope [of that see.]
At Utica, in Africa, [in the fifth century,] blessed Victor, Bishop [of Vite, in the territory of Tunis.]
At Autun, [in the seventh century,] holy Flavian, Bishop [of that see.]
At Clermont, in Auvergne, [in the fifth century,] holy Sidonius, Bishop [of that see,] famous for his learning and holiness.
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.
