All 9 of April's SanctiM-track saints authored. Found a new wrinkle:
St. Catherine of Siena and St. Peter Martyr sit on swapped dates
between this app's calendar and the general Tridentine one (Apr 29/30
each way), not just an off-by-a-few-days shift like earlier cases.
Also hit a reference-engine data bug on St. George (English prose
filed under a Latin heading) and another genuinely Monastic-only saint
(St. Robert of Molesme) needing an original translation.

# Matins Nocturn 2 reading for St. Peter Martyr (of Verona), Martyr
# (Apr 30 on this app's own calendar) — an off-date sourcing case: the
# general Tridentine calendar keeps Peter Martyr on Apr 29 instead
# (this app's own Apr 29 slot going to St. Robert and St. Catherine of
# Siena — see st-catherine-of-siena.yml's note on this same date
# swap). No `SanctiM/04-29*.txt` matches Peter Martyr at all (the two
# variants found there, `04-29M.txt` and `04-29oM.txt`, are Ss.
# Odo/Maiolus/Odilo/Hugh and St. Robert respectively — neither is
# Peter Martyr) — a missed pre-1955-pool candidate rather than a
# genuine SanctiM case (see memory vu-matins-sanctim-saints).
# web/www/horas/Latin/Sancti/04-29.txt, English/Sancti/04-29.txt.
# Lectio4-6 combined into one reading, one continuous vita, no genuine
# source break. No responsory given in the source.

Petrus, Veronæ paréntibus Manichæórum hæresi infectis natus, ab ipsa pæne infántia
contra hæreses pugnávit. Puer annórum septem, cum scholas frequentaret, aliquándo a
patruo hæretico interrogátus quid tandem in iis didicísset, christianæ fidei symbolum se
didicisse respóndit; neque ullis umquam patris patruíve blanditiis aut minis a fidei
constanti dimoveri pótuit. Adoléscens Bonóniam studiórum causa venit; ubi, a Spíritu
Sancto ad sublimioris vitæ formam vocatus, ordinis Prædicatórum institutum suscépit.
Magno virtútum splendore in religióne eluxit: corpus et ánimum ab omni impuritate ita
custodívit, ut nullius mortíferi peccáti labe se inquinátum umquam sénserit. Carnem
jejuniis et vigiliis macerábat; mentem divinis contemplatiónibus exercebat. In salúte
animárum procuranda assidue versabátur; peculiáris gratiæ dono hæreticos ácriter
confutábat. Tantam in concionando vim hábuit, ut innumerábilis hóminum multitúdo ad eum
audiéndum conflúeret, multique ad pœniténtiam converteréntur.
Tanto fidei ardore incénsus erat, ut pro ea mortem subire optaret, eamque a Deo grátiam
enixe precarétur. Itaque hæretici necem, quam is paulo ante concionando prædixerat, illi
intulérunt. Nam cum sanctæ Inquisitiónis munus géreret, illum Como Mediolanum
redeuntem ímpius sicarius semel atque íterum in cápite gládio vulnerávit; jamque pene
mórtuus, symbolórum fidei, quam infans virili fortitúdine conféssus fuerat, in ipso
supremo spíritu pronuntiávit; iterúmque látera mucrone transverberatus, ad martyrii
palmam migrávit in cælum, anno salútis millesimo ducentésimo quinquagesimo secundo. Quem
multis, illustrem miraculis Innocentius quartus anno sequénti sanctórum Mártyrum número
adscripsit.

Peter was born at Verona, of parents polluted with the Manichaean heresy, but he himself
began his lifelong strife against error when he was but a little child. When he was seven
years old he went to school, and was asked by his heretic uncle what he learnt there; he
answered that he had learnt the Christian Creed, and neither his father nor his uncle were
ever able to shake his constancy in the faith, either by cajolements or threats. When he
was a young lad he went to Bologna to study, and there he was called by the Holy Ghost to
an higher state of life, and entered the Order of Friars Preachers, at fifteen years of
age.
He was marked by great perfection as a Friar; so watchful was he over the purity of his
body and soul, that he never felt himself defiled by a mortal sin. He chastened his body
by fasting and watching, and ennobled his soul by the contemplation of the things of God.
He was constantly busied in works for furthering the salvation of souls, and had a
peculiar gift of grace for clearly convincing heretics. Such was his power as a preacher,
that countless crowds were drawn together to hear him, and many were moved to repentance.
The faith which was in him burnt so hotly, that he longed to seal his confession with his
blood, and oftentimes he earnestly besought from God the grace to do so. It was but a
little while before the heretics murdered him, that he foretold, in preaching, his own
approaching death. While he was intrusted with the duties of the Holy Inquisition, he was
returning from Como to Milan, when an ungodly ruffian assailed him and wounded him once
and again in the head with a sword. Peter, to whom these blows were nearly fatal, began
with his last breath to recite that Profession of the Faith, to which as a little child he
had clung with such manly courage, but the murderer thrust the weapon into his side, and
he passed away to receive a Martyr's palm in heaven, in the year of salvation 1252. In the
following year, Innocent IV., seeing by how many miracles God had been pleased to glorify
him, added his name to the sacred roll of Martyrs.
