Sextodécimo Kaléndas Februárii Luna sexta Anno Dómini 2024
January 17th 2024, the 6th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
In the Thebaid, (in the year 356,) the holy Abbot Anthony, father of many monks, very illustrious for his life and miracles. Holy Athanasius hath chronicled his acts in a famous book. His sacred body was found by the revelation of God in the time of the Emperor Justinian and brought to Alexandria, where it is buried in the Church of St. John the Baptist.
At Langres, the holy triplets Speusippus, Eleusippus, and Meleusippus, who were crowned with martyrdom in the time of the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, along with their grandmother Leonilla.
At Rome is commemorated the finding of the bodies of the holy martyrs Diodorus the Priest, Marian the Deacon, and their Companions, who were keeping the feasts of the martyrs in the Catacombs in the time of holy Pope Stephen, (in the year 257,) when the persecutors closed up the entrance of the Catacomb and buried it up, so that they also died as martyrs.
At Bourges, (in the year 644,) holy Sulpicius, Bishop of that see, surnamed the Pious, whose life and precious death are rendered famous by glorious miracles.
In the monastery of St. Andrew at Rome, (in the sixth century,) the blessed monks Anthony, Merulus, and John, of whom writeth holy Pope Gregory.
℣. 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.
