Prídie Idus Octóbris Luna undécima Anno Dómini 2024
October 14th 2024, the 11th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Rome, upon the Aurelian Way, the blessed martyr Pope Callistus. By command of the Emperor Alexander he was long starved in prison, and cudgelled every day, then he was cast headlong out of a window of the house wherein he was warded, and drowned in a well, and so earned the triumph of victory.
At Caesarea, in Palestine, the holy Virgin and martyr Fortunata. In the persecution under the Emperor Diocletian she overcame the rack, fire, beasts, and other torments, and gave up her soul to God. Her body was brought later to Naples, in Campania.
Also the holy martyrs Carponius, Evaristus, and Priscian, brothers of the aforesaid Fortunata, who were slain with the sword, and so received their crown.
Also the holy martyrs Saturninus and Lupus.
At Rimini, (in the fourth century,) the holy martyr Gaudentius, Bishop (of that see.)
At Todi, the holy Bishop Fortunatus, who, as is stated by blessed Gregory, was distinguished by the grace of an extraordinary power in driving away unclean spirits.
At Wuerzburg, (in the eighth century,) holy Burchard, the first Bishop of that see.
At Brugge, in Flanders, (toward the end of the fourth century,) holy Donatian, Bishop of Reims.
At Trier, (in the sixth century,) holy Rusticus, Bishop (of that see.)
On the same day, (in the year 1060,) deceased blessed Dominic, called Loricatus, (that is, the mail-wearer, from the coat of mail which he wore as a penance.)
In Latium, the holy Confessor Bernard.
℣. 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.
