Quinto Idus Octóbris Luna vicésima sexta Anno Dómini 2023
October 11th 2023, the 26th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Tarsus, in Cilicia, the holy martyrs Tharacus, Probus, and Andronicus, who suffered a long and foul imprisonment in the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian, were three times interrogated under torture and punishment, and, still confessing Christ, were beheaded, and so obtained a glorious triumph.
In the country of the Vexin, under the President Fescenninus, the holy martyrs Nicasius, Bishop of Rouen, the Priest Quirinus, the Deacon Scubiculus, and the Virgin Pientia.
Likewise the holy martyrs Anastasius the Priest, Placidus, Genesius, and their Companions.
In the Thebaid, holy Sarmatas, a disciple of the blessed Abbot Antony, who was slain by the Saracens for Christ's sake.
At Besancon, in Gaul, the holy martyr Germanus, Bishop (of that see.)
At Uzes, in Gaul, (in the sixth century,) the holy Confessor Firmin, Bishop (of that see.)
In Ireland, (in the year 600,) holy Kenneth, Abbot (of Aghaboe.)
At Lier, in Belgium, (in the eighth century,) the holy Confessor Gummar.
At Rennes, in Gaul, (in the ninth century,) the holy Confessor Emilian.
At Tarsus, in Cilicia, the holy sisters Zenais and Philonilla, who were kinswomen of the blessed Apostle Paul according to the flesh, and his disciples in the faith.
At Verona, (in the fifth century,) the holy Virgin Placidia.
℣. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
℟. 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.
