Nonis Septémbris Luna prima Anno Dómini 2024
On the morrow we keep the feast of holy Lawrence Giustiniani, first Patriarch of Venice, who adorned by graces and by the glory of miracles that Episcopal see which, upon the 5th day of September, he was compelled against his own will to occupy. His birth into the better life is mentioned upon the 8th day of January.
September 5th 2024, the 1st day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Rome, in the suburb, the blessed martyr Victorinus, Bishop of Amiternum, (now called after him San Vittorino.) He was famous for holiness and miracles, and was chosen to the see of that city by the voice of all the people thereof. Afterwards, under Nerva-Trajan, he was sent, along with other servants of God, to Cutilia, where there is a pool of stinking sulphurous waters, and where the judge Aurelian ordered him to be hung up with his head downwards this torment he suffered for the space of three days, for Christ's name's sake, and then departed in triumph, gloriously crowned to be ever with the Lord. The Christians carried off his hody, and buried it honourably at Amiternum.
At Porto, (in the second century,) the holy martyr Herculan.
At Capua, the holy martyrs Quintius, Arcontius, and Donatus.
Upon the same day holy Romulus, Praefect of the Palace to the Emperor Trajan he denounced the cruelty of that Emperor against the Christians, and for that cause was first beaten with rods and then beheaded.
At Melitina, in Armenia, the holy soldiers Eudoxius, Zeno, Macarius, and their Companions, one thousand one hundred and four in number, who in the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian renounced their military service, and were massacred for confessing Christ.
At Constantinople, the holy martyrs Urban, Theodore, Menedem, and their Companions, seventy-seven in number, of the ecclesiastical state, who under the Emperor Valens, for the Catholic faith's sake, were put on board a ship and burnt at sea.
At the monastery of Sithiu, in the country of Thérouanne, (in the eighth century,) the holy Abbot Bertin.
At Toledo, the holy Virgin Obdulia.
℣. 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.
