# Verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum 1617), Lauds
# live query, St. Agatha's own day (2026-02-05) -- the Benedictus
# antiphon. Corrects the previous version of this file, which had been
# sourced from the Roman/secular rite's Sancti/02-05.txt's own [Ant 1]
# instead: real but different text from what Monastic 1617 actually
# renders at Lauds, same mistake as St. Lawrence's earlier fix.
