Add January Matins readings for pre-1955 sanctoral saints

Sts. Marcellus I, Paul the Hermit, Marius/Martha/Audifax/Abachum,
Emerentiana, Timothy, Polycarp, and Agnes (second feast) — sourced from
the reference engine's Tridentine/Divino Afflatu track since none of
these saints existed in the Monastic 1617 calendar this app otherwise
follows.

# Matins Nocturn 2 reading for St. Emerentiana, Virgin and Martyr (Jan 23)
# — pre-1955-but-post-1617. Plain Sancti/01-23.txt is a different, later
# saint (St. Raymond of Peñafort) who displaced Emerentiana on the
# general calendar's own Jan 23 slot; her own content survives at the
# suffixed sibling file instead (see memory vu-matins-pre1955-saints's
# "critical wrinkle").
# web/www/horas/Latin/Sancti/01-23o.txt, English/Sancti/01-23o.txt.
# Single lesson (simplex-feast Lectio93), one continuous account, no
# responsory given in the source.

Emerentiána virgo Romana, collactanea beátæ Agnetis, adhuc catechumena, fide et caritate
flagrans, furéntes in Christiános idolórum cultores cum vehementius accusaret, a concitáta
multitúdine lapidibus óbruta est. Quæ in cruciátibus orans ad sepúlcrum sanctæ Agnetis,
proprio sánguine, quem pro Christo constanter effudit, baptizata, ánimam Deo réddidit.

Emerentiana was a Roman maiden, and the foster-sister of the blessed Agnes. While she was
still a Catechumen she was inspired by her faith and love to rebuke the fury of the
idol-worshippers against the Christians, whereupon a mob assembled, and stoned her so
severely that she was only able to drag herself to the grave of holy Agnes, where, while
she prayed, she gave up her soul to God, being baptized, not in water, but in her own
blood, so freely shed for Christ.
