Quarto Idus Ianuárii Luna duodevicésima Anno Dómini 2023
January 10th 2023, the 18th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
In Cyprus, the blessed Nicanor, one of the seven first Deacons, who was wondrous for the grace of faith and power, and received a most glorious crown, (in the year 35 or 76.)
At Rome, the holy Pope Agatho, who was eminent for holiness and learning, and fell asleep in peace, (in the year 682.)
At Bourges, in Aquitaine, (in the year 1209,) the holy Confessor William, Archbishop (of that see,) famous for signs and works of power, whose name Honorius III enrolled with those of the saints.
At Milan, the holy Confessor John, surnamed the Good, Archbishop of that city, (in the year 659.)
In the Thebaid, blessed Paul, the first Hermit, who from the sixteenth even unto the hundred and thirteenth year of his age dwelt alone in the desert, (in the year 342,) holy Anthony saw his soul borne heavenward by angels between the choirs of the Apostles and of the Prophets. We keep his feast upon the 15th day of this present month of January.
At Constantinople, the holy Priest Marcian, (about the year 489.)
In the monastery of Cusan, (in the diocese of Perpignan,) the holy Confessor Peter Urseoli, who was sometime Doge of Venice, and then became a monk of the Order of St. Benedict, and was famous for godliness and works of power, (in the year 997.)
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.
