Quinto Idus Novémbris Luna séptima Anno Dómini 2024
On the morrow is kept the feast of the Dedication of the Cathedral Church of the Saviour at Rome, (in the year 324).
November 9th 2024, the 7th day of the Moon, were born into the better life:
At Amasea, in Pontus, the holy soldier Theodore. In the time of the Emperor Maximian he was heavily flogged and cast into prison for his profession of the Christian faith, in prison the Lord appeared unto him, and bade him be steadfast and do manfully, then he was taken out and stretched upon the rack and torn with hooks until his inner parts were seen, and lastly he was thrown into the fire. Holy Gregory of Nyssa hath told his praises in a noble discourse.
At Tyana, in Cappadocia, under the Emperor Diocletian, the holy martyr Orestes.
At Thessalonica, under the Emperor Maximian, the holy martyr Alexander.
At Bourges, the holy Confessor Ursinus, who was ordained at Rome by the successors of the Apostles, and sent to that city as the first Bishop thereof.
At Naples, in Campania, holy Agrippinus, Bishop (of that see,) famous for miracles.
At Constantinople, the holy Virgins Eustolia of Rome, and Sopatra, daughter of the Emperor Maurice.
At Beirut, in Lebanon, is made commemoration of an image of the Saviour which was crucified by the Jews, (about the year 765,) and so much Blood flowed therefrom, that the Churches both of the East and West have plentifully received thereof.
℣. 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.
