Add May Matins readings for pre-1955 sanctoral saints

St. Monica, St. Stanislaus, the Apparition of St. Michael, and St.
Eleutherius. St. Monica's Nocturn 3 Gospel+homily reuses the
already-verified Luke 7:11-16 text from post-pentecost-15.yml, the same
pericope her own day's lessons cross-reference.

+        cujus radíces íncolunt Sipontíni, Archángeli Michaélis fuit illústris apparítio.
+
+
+        Factum est enim, ut ex grégibus armentórum Gargáni cujúsdam taurus longe discéderet; quem
+        diu conquisítum, in áditu spelúncæ hæréntem invenérunt. Cum vero quidam ex illis, ut taurum

+        rem a Deo respóndit quæri oportére.

+        miráculis illustrátus est. Nec ita multo post Bonifátius Papa, Romæ in summo circo, sancti

+        That the blessed Archangel Michael hath oftentimes been seen of men is attested on the
+        authority of the Holy Bible, and also by the ancient traditions of the Saints. For this
+        reason such visions are held in remembrance in many places. As of old time did the Synagogue
+        of the Jews, so now doth the Church of God venerate Michael as her watcher and defender. But
+        during the papacy of Gelasius I, the summit of Mount Gargano in Apulia, at whose foot lieth
+        the town of Siponto, was the scene of an extraordinary appearance of this same Archangel
+        Michael.
+
+
+        And it came to pass on this wise. A certain man had a bull grazing with the flock upon Mount
+        Gargano, and it strayed. And when they had sought it for a long while they found it jammed
+        in the mouth of a cavern. Then one that stood there shot an arrow at it to slay it, but the
+        arrow turned round and came back against him that had shot it. They therefore that saw it,
+        and all those that heard it, were sore afraid because of that which had come to pass, so
+        that no man dared any more to draw near to the cavern. But when they had sought counsel of
+        the Bishop of Siponto, he answered, that it behoved to seek the interpretation from God, and
+        proclaimed three days of fasting and prayer.
+
+
+        After three days the Archangel Michael gave warning to the Bishop that that place was under
+        his protection, and that he had thus pointed out by a sign that he wished that worship
+        should be offered to God there, with remembrance of himself and of the Angels. Then the
+        Bishop and the citizens made haste and came to the cavern, and when they found that the form
+        thereof was somewhat after the fashion of a Church, they began to perform the public worship
+        of God therein, which sanctuary hath been glorified with many miracles. It was not long
+        after these things that Pope Boniface IV hallowed the Church of St. Michael on Hadrian's
+        Mole at Rome, on the 29th day of September, on the which day the Church also holdeth in
+        remembrance All Angels. But this present day is hallowed in remembrance of the manifestation
+        of the Archangel Michael.
+    responsory:
+      la: "Hic est Míchaël Archángelus, princeps milítiæ Angelórum, * Cujus honor præstat benefícia populórum, et orátio perdúcit ad regna cælórum.\nV. Archángelus Míchaël præpósitus paradísi, quem honoríficant Angelórum cives.\nR. Cujus honor præstat benefícia populórum, et orátio perdúcit ad regna cælórum."

The Archangel Michael is the Vice-Roy of Paradise, and the Angels that are the dwellers therein, do hold him in worship.\nR.

+        Eleutherius was a Greek by race, and was born at Nicopolis, a city of Epirus. His father's
+        name was Abundius. He was a Priest of the holy Roman Church. During the reign of the Emperor
+        Marcus Aurelius Augustus, after the death of Soter, he was chosen Bishop of Rome by the
+        votes of all the clergy. He discharged the duties of this office excellently, and with all
+        praise, for fifteen years and twenty-three days. He held three ordinations in the month of
+        December, wherein he ordained twelve Priests, eight Deacons, and fifteen Bishops for diverse
+        places. He was consulted by the church of Lyons by letter concerning certain questions. The
+        bearer of these letters was that most learned Irenaeus. Him he hospitably welcomed, and to
+        him he opened the traditions of the Apostles which the Church of Rome had kept pure. He
+        condemned the superstitious dry-meat system of the Montanists. He laid down excellent rules
+        as to the right form of church sentences. When Marcion and Valentine had oftentimes relapsed
+        he cast them out of the Church. In his days the Church enjoyed the utmost peace, and he
+        brought many even of the chiefest of Rome to believe in Christ. He received letters by
+        messengers from Lleurwg, Prince of the Britons, praying him for ministers of the Word of
+        God, and he sent unto him Fagan and Dyfan, Priests of the Roman Church, through whose hands
+        the Prince himself, with his whole household and nearly all his subjects, were born again in
+        the sacred washing of regeneration. At length, when he had done all these things and others
+        for the worship of God, Eleutherius died a holy death in the reign of the Emperor Commodus,
+        and was buried upon the Vatican Mount.

+        Monica was twice over the mother of St. Augustine, for, under God, he owed to her both
+        earth and heaven. When her husband was very old she made him a friend of Jesus Christ, and
+        after his death she lived a widow in all purity and constantly occupied in works of mercy.
+        Her son Augustine had fallen into the heresy of the Manichaeans, and for his conversion she
+        earnestly pleaded with God for years, with strong crying and tears. She followed Augustine
+        to Milan, and tenderly and constantly besought him to confer with Ambrose the Bishop. This
+        he consented to do, and at last, through the public sermons and private conversations of
+        Ambrose, his eyes were opened to see the truth of the Catholic Religion, and he received
+        baptism at the Bishop's hands.
+
+
+        The mother and son set out to return to their home in Africa, but after they had reached
+        Ostia at the mouth of the Tiber, she was stricken down by a fever. One day as she lay sick,
+        she came to herself after her mind had been long wandering, and said: "Where am I?" Then she
+        saw who were standing by, and said: "Let your mother lie here only; remember me at the altar
+        of the Lord." On the ninth day this blessed lady surrendered her spirit to God. Her body was
+        buried there at Ostia in the Church of St. Aurea, but, long after, in the papacy of Martin
+        V, it was carried to Rome and honourably buried again in the Church of St. Augustine.

+        That her son was called again to life was the joy of that widowed mother; that souls of men

+        have been dead in mind. His death was outward, and was outwardly bewailed; their inward
+        death hath been neither mourned for nor seen. But He hath sought for them, Who hath seen
+        that they are dead, and He only hath seen that they are dead, Who hath been able to make
+        them alive. If He had not come to raise the dead, the Apostle had not said: "Awake, thou
+        that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light."
+
+
+        It is written how the Lord raised from the dead three persons visibly, but thousands
+        invisibly. But how many they may have been whom He raised visibly, who knoweth? For all the
+        things which He did are not written. John saith thus: "There are also many other things
+        which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the
+        world itself could not contain the books that should be written." There were then, doubtless,

+        Jesus Christ hath willed that those things which He did carnally, we should understand also
+        spiritually. He worked not miracles only for the sake of working wonders, but that His works
+        might be at once wonderful to them that beheld, and true to them that understand them.

+        understanding by the mind; and as, on the other hand, he that can not only gaze on it, as
+        can all men, but also can read it, praiseth the penmanship, and catcheth the sense likewise,
+        which the unlearned cannot do: even so, there were some that saw the miracles which Christ
+        did, and understood not what they meant, nor what they, as it were, hinted to such as did
+        understand them, and these only marvelled to see them wrought. And other some there were
+        which saw the works, and marvelled, and understood them, and profited by them. And it is as
+        these last that we ought to be in the school of Christ.

+        Stanislaus Polonus, apud Cracoviam nobili genere natus et piis paréntibus, qui antea per
+        annos trigínta stériles, illum a Deo precibus impetrarunt, ab ineunte ætate futuræ
+        sanctitátis specimen dedit. Adoléscens bonis artibus operam navávit, multumque in sacra
+        cánonum et theologíæ doctrina profecit. Paréntibus mórtuis, amplum patrimónium paupéribus
+        distríbuit, vitæ monasticæ desidério. Sed Dei providéntia canonicus Cracoviénsis et
+        concionátor factus a Lampérto epíscopo, in ejus póstea locum, quamvis invitus, suffícitur.
+        Quo in múnere, ómnium pastorálium virtútum laude, et præcípue misericórdia in páuperes,
+        enítuit.
+
+
+        Erat tum Poloniæ rex Bolesláus, quem gráviter offendit, quod illíus notam libidinem publice
+        arguebat. Quare in solemni regni convéntu Stanisláum per calumniam in judícium coram se
+        vocari curat, tamquam pagum occuparet, quem ecclésiæ suæ nómine coémerat. Quod cum neque
+        tabulis probare posset, et testes veritátem cidere timerent, spondet epíscopus, se Petrum
+        pagi venditórem, qui triennio ante obíerat, intra dies tres in judícium adducturum.
+        Conditióne cum risu accepta, vir Dei toto triduo jejuniis et oratióni incumbit; ipso
+        sponsiónis die, post oblátum Missæ sacrifícium, Petrum e sepúlcro surgere jubet; qui statim
+        redivivus, episcopum ad regium tribunal euntem sequitur, ibique, rege et ceteris stupore
+        attónitis, de agro a se véndito et pretio rite sibi ab episcopo persoluto testimónium dicit,
+        atque íterum in Dómino obdormívit.
+
+
+        At Boleslaum, frustra sæpe admónitum, Stanisláus tandem a fidelium communióne rémovet. Ille,
+        iracúndia furens, milites in ecclésiam immíttit, ut sanctum episcopum confodiant; qui, ter
+        conati, occúlta vi, tertio divinitus sunt depulsi. Postremo ímpius rex sacerdotem Dei,
+        Hostiam immaculátam ad altáre offeréntem, sua manu obtruncat. Corpus, membratim concisum et
+        per agros projectum, áquilæ a feris mirabíliter defendunt. Mox canonici Cracovienses sparsa
+        membra, nocturni de cælo splendoris indicio cólligunt, et suis locis apte disponunt; quæ
+        súbito ita inter se copuláta sunt, ut nulla vúlnerum vestígia exstarent. Multis præterea
+        miraculis servi sui sanctitátem Deus declarávit post ejus mortem: quibus permotus Innocentius
+        quartus, summus Pontifex, illum in Sanctórum númerum rétulit. Clemens vero octavus, Pontifex
+        maximus, sancti Stanislai festo die in Románum Breviárium reláto, gloriósi Mártyris memóriam
+        dúplici Officio ubíque celebrári jussit.

+        This Stanislaw was a Pole. He was born of a noble family at Cracow. His godly parents, who
+        had been childless for thirty years, obtained him from God by prayer, and from his earliest
+        years he gave token of the holiness of life which afterwards marked him. When he was a young
+        man he applied himself heartily to all useful learning, and was deeply read in the sacred
+        teaching of the Canons and of Theological science. After the death of his parents he
+        inherited great possessions, but he sold them, and distributed the price to the poor,
+        purposing himself to become a monk. However, by the Providence of God, Lampert, Bishop of
+        Cracow, named him Canon of the Cathedral Church of that diocese, and Preacher in the same,
+        and afterwards he was elected, against his own will, to succeed to Lampert's place. In this
+        office he was a bright and shining light of all virtues that become a shepherd of souls,
+        especially of tenderness toward the poor.
+
+
+        At that time Boleslaw II was King of Poland, and him Stanislaw grievously offended, because
+        he openly rebuked him for his shameless lust. Wherefore, in a solemn Parliament of his
+        kingdom, he made Stanislaw to be brought before him on a false accusation of having taken
+        wrongfully a certain village, which he had bought in the name of his Church. The Bishop
+        could not rebut this charge by documents, and the witnesses were in too great fear to speak
+        the truth. Stanislaw therefore said that in three days he would produce before the
+        judgment-seat one Peter, from whom he had bought the village, and who had been dead three
+        years. His enemies laughed thereat, and closed with his proposal, and the man of God gave
+        himself up to fasting and prayer for three days. On the day which he had promised, after he
+        had offered up the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, he commanded Peter to rise from the grave.
+        Peter then immediately came to life, arose, and followed Stanislaw to the King's
+        judgment-seat, where before the King and all others, who were struck dumb with amazement, he
+        bore witness of the sale of the village, and the honest payment of the price by the Bishop,
+        and then again fell asleep in the Lord.
+
+
+        Stanislaw often rebuked Boleslaw, but when he found it was in vain, he at last cut him off
+        from the communion of Christ's faithful people. Thereupon Boleslaw became frenzied with
+        rage, and sent soldiers to the Church to murder the holy Bishop. This they thrice essayed to
+        do, but God was pleased that they should be held back by some unseen power. In the end, the
+        ungodly King with his own hand cut off the head of the Priest of God as he was standing at
+        the Altar offering up the Sacrifice without spot. His body was hewn into pieces and strewn
+        about the fields, but the eagles strangely kept the beasts of prey off it. The Canons of the
+        Cathedral of Cracow soon gathered together the mutilated and scattered limbs, which they
+        were enabled to see by a lightness which overspread the sky at night, and they fitted them
+        together, each into his place. The relics immediately so joined themselves one to the other,
+        that no marks of wounds remained. Moreover, God was pleased to manifest the holiness of His
+        servant by many wonders after his death, by the which being moved, Pope Innocent IV added
+        his name to those of the Saints, and the Supreme Pontiff Clement VIII gave his Feast a place
+        in the Service Book of the Church of Rome, commanding that the memory of so glorious a
+        Martyr should be everywhere celebrated under the Double rite.
