Prídie Idus Ianuárii Luna vicésima Anno Dómini 2023
January 12th 2023, the 20th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Rome, the holy martyr Tatiana, in the persecution under the Emperor Alexander. She was lacerated with hooks and combs, thrown to wild beasts, and cast into the fire, but as she remained unhurt, was at length beheaded, and so passed away to heaven.
In the Peloponnesos, the holy martyr Satyrus. As he was passing before a certain idol he breathed upon it, and signed himself with the sign of the cross upon his own forehead, whereupon the idol straightway fell down, and for this cause Satyrus was beheaded, (in the year 267.)
Upon the same day, (in Morocco, in the year 259) the holy martyr Arcadius, eminent for his rank and his miracles.
In Africa, the holy martyrs Zoticus, Rogatus, Modestus, Castulus, and a crown of forty soldiers.
At Constantinople, the holy martyrs Tigrius the Priest and Eutropius the Reader, who suffered in the time of the Emperor Arcadius.
At Tivoli, (in the year 126,) the holy martyr Zoticus.
At Ephesus, forty-two holy monks, who were most cruelly tortured and suffered martyrdom under the Emperor Constantine Copronymus for the honouring of holy images.
At Ravenna, the holy Confessor John, Archbishop of that see, (about the year 489.)
At Verona, holy Probus, Bishop of that see, (about the year 236.)
In England, (in the year 690,) the holy Confessor Benedict Biscop, founder, and Abbot of the monastery of Jarrow-upon-Tyne, whose feast we keep upon the 12th day of February.
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.
