Quintodécimo Kaléndas Decémbris Luna quarta Anno Dómini 2023
November 17th 2023, the 4th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
In England, holy Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln. He was a Charter House Monk, who was called to rule the Church of Lincoln, was famous for many miracles, and died an holy death, (in the year 1200.)
At Neo-Caesarea, in Pontus, (about the year 270,) holy Gregory, Archbishop of that see, who was famous for teaching and holiness, and who came to be called the Wonder-worker, on account of the great signs and wonders which he worked to the great glory of the churches, whose feast we keep upon the 27th day of this present month of November.
In Palestine, the holy martyrs Alphaeus and Zacchaeus, who were put to death after suffering many torments, in the first year of the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian.
At Cordova, the holy brother and sister Acisclus and Victoria, both martyrs, who in the same persecution by Diocletian aforesaid, were most cruelly tortured by command of the President Dion, and earned crowns of glory from the hand of the Lord.
At Alexandria, holy Denys, Bishop (of that see,) a man of great learning, and glorious on account of his many confessions and his diverse sufferings and torments, who at length fell asleep in the Lord, full of days but still a Confessor, in the time of the Emperors Valerian and Gallienus, (in the year 265.)
At Orleans, (in the year 453,) holy Anian, Bishop (of that see,) the preciousness of whose death, in the sight of the Lord, is attested by many miracles.
At Tours, (in the year 595,) holy Gregory, Bishop (of that see.)
At Florence, the holy Confessor Eugene, a Deacon of blessed Zenobius, Bishop of that see.
In Germany, (in the year 1334,) the holy Virgin Gertrude, of the Order of St. Benedict, eminent for her gift of revelations, whose feast we have kept upon the 15th day of this present month.
℣. 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.
