Idibus Octóbris Luna prima Anno Dómini 2023
October 15th 2023, the 1st day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Avila, in Spain, the holy Virgin Theresa, the mother and mistress of the brethren and sisters of the Order of Carmelites of the Stricter Observance.
At Rome, upon the Aurelian Way, the holy martyr Fortunatus.
At Cologne, three hundred holy martyrs, who finished the course of their contending in the persecution under Maximian.
At Carthage, the holy martyr Agileus, on whose feast - day holy Augustine preached to the people a discourse concerning him.
In Prussia, (at the beginning of the eleventh century,) the holy martyr Bruno, Bishop of the Ruthenians, who was preaching the gospel in those parts when he was taken by wicked men, who cut off, first his hands and feet, and then his head.
At Lyon, (in the fourth century,) holy Antiochus, Bishop (of that see,) who vigorously administered the office of the bishopric to which he had been called, and inherited a kingdom in heaven.
At Trier, (in the fifth century,) the holy Confessor Severus, Bishop (of that see.)
At Strasbourg, (in the year 1027,) the holy Virgin Aurelia.
At Cracow, holy Iadwiga, Grand Princess of Poland, who gave herself up to the serving of the poor, and was famous ever for miracles. Pope Clement IV enrolled her name among those of the Saints, and Innocent XI sanctioned her festival for the 17th day of this present month of October.
In Germany, (in the eighth century,) holy Thecla, Abbess (of Kitzingen.)
℣. 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.
