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.

accordance with the precept of the Prince of the Apostles He ordained twenty-five Priests

for the city. He was the first Pope who made use in his letters of the phrase "Health and

Apostolic Benediction." When he had ruled the Church for twelve years, seven months, and

two days, and brought it into an excellent state of order, in the reign of the Emperor

Domitian, and the second persecution since the time of Nero, he was crowned with

Marcellinus was a Roman; he ruled the Church from the year 296 to the year 304, during the
|
||||
savage persecution which was ordered by the Emperor Diocletian. He suffered through the
|
||||
false severity of those who blamed him as being too indulgent toward them who had fallen
|
||||
into idolatry, and for this reason also hath been slandered to the effect that he himself
|
||||
burnt incense to idols; but this blessed Pope, on account of his confession of the faith,
|
||||
was put to death along with three other Christians, whose names are Claudius, Cyrinus, and
|
||||
Antoninus. At the command of the Emperor their bodies were cast out unburied, and lay so
|
||||
for thirty-six days. At the end of that time St. Peter appeared in a dream to Blessed
|
||||
Marcellus, and in obedience to his command the said Marcellus went with certain Priests
|
||||
and Deacons, singing hymns, and carrying lights, and buried these four bodies honourably
|
||||
in the Cemetery of Priscilla upon the Salarian Way. Marcellinus ruled the Church for seven
|
||||
years, eleven months, and twenty-three days. During this time he held two Advent
|

ordinations, and ordained at them four Priests, and five Bishops for diverse Sees.

holy Martyrs; yea, that we should tell of the glory of the Lord's rising again, to them

which have been partakers of His sufferings, should be also of His joy. For thus saith the

Valerian was a Roman, of a family as noble as that of the blessed maiden Cecily, to whom

he was contracted in marriage, in the reign of the Emperor Alexander Severus. At her

persuasion he and his brother Tiburtius were baptized by the holy Pope Urban. When it came

to the knowledge of Almachius, the Prefect of the city, that they were become Christians,
|

had given their substance to the poor, and were burying the bodies of the faithful, he
|

sent for them and strongly rebuked them; but as they constantly confessed that Christ is
|
||||
God, and that the gods of the heathen are but vain images of devils, he commanded them to
|
||||
be beaten with rods. But, forasmuch as no blows could force them to worship the image of
|
||||
Jupiter, but they seemed rather to wax strong in witnessing to the truth of the faith that
|
||||
was in them, they were beheaded at the fourth mile-stone from the city. One of the clerks
|
||||
of the Prefect, named Maximus, who had led them out to die, was so moved at the sight of
|
||||
their courage that he himself, with many other servants of the Prefect, owned to being a
|

Christian; they were sentenced to be scourged to death with whips loaded with lead, under
|

the which torment, in a little while, all these, who had once been the devil's ministers,

passed away as martyrs of Christ the Lord.

Catharina, virgo Senensis piis orta parentibus, beati Dominici habitum, quem sorores de
|
||||
Pœnitentia gestant, impetravit. Summa ejus fuit abstinentia, et admirabilis vitæ
|
||||
austeritas. Inventa est aliquando a die Cinerum usque ad Ascensionem Domini jejunium
|
||||
perduxisse, sola Eucharistiæ communione contenta. Luctabatur quam frequentissime cum
|
||||
dæmonibus, multisque illorum molestiis vexabatur, æstuabat febribus, nec aliorum morborum
|
||||
cruciatu carebat. Magnum et sanctum erat Catharinæ nomen, et undique ad eam ægroti et
|
||||
malignis vexati spiritibus deducebantur. Languoribus et febribus in Christi nomine
|
||||
imperabat, et dæmones cogebat ab obsessis abire corporibus.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Cum Pisis immoraretur die Dominico, refecta cibo cælesti, et in extasim rapta, vidit
|

Dominum crucifixum magno cum lumine advenientem, et ex ejus vulnerum cicatricibus quinque

radios ad quinque loca sui corporis descendentes; ideoque mysterium advertens, Dominum

splendidum, et in formam puræ lucis pervenerunt ad manus, pedes, et cor ejus: ac tantus

erat dolor, quem sensibiliter patiebatur, ut nisi Deus minuisset, brevi se crederet
|
||||
morituram. Hanc ítaque gratiam amantissimus Dominus nova gratia cumulavit, ut sentiret
|
||||
dolorem illapsa vi vulnerum et cruenta signa non apparerent. Quod ita contigisse cum Dei
|

famula confessario suo Raymundo retulisset, ut oculis étiam repræsentaretur, radios in

imaginibus beatæ Catharinæ ad dicta quinque loca pertingentes, pia fidelium cura pictis

coloribus expressit.
|

Doctrina ejus infusa, non acquisita fuit; sacrarum litterarum professoribus difficillimas
|

de divinitate quæstiones proponentibus respondit; nemo ad eam accessit, qui non melior

qui cum Ecclesia dissidebant, et interdicto ecclesiastico suppositi erant, Avenionem ad
|
||||
Gregorium undecimum Pontificem maximum profecta est. Cui étiam votum ejus de petenda

This Katharine was a maiden of Siena, and was born of godly parents. She took the habit
|
||||
of the Third Order of St. Dominic. Her fasts were most severe, and the austerity of her
|
||||
life wonderful. It was discovered that on some occasions she took no food at all from Ash
|
||||
Wednesday till Ascension Day, receiving all needful strength by taking the Holy Communion.
|
||||
She was engaged oftentimes in a wrestling with devils, and was sorely tried by them with
|
||||
diverse assaults: she was consumed by fevers, and suffered likewise from other diseases.
|
||||
Great and holy was the name of Katharine, and sick folk, and such as were vexed with evil
|
||||
spirits, were brought to her from all quarters. Through the Name of Christ, she had
|
||||
command over sickness and fever, and forced the foul spirits to leave the bodies of the
|
||||
tormented.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
While she dwelt at Pisa, on a certain Lord's Day, after she had received the Living Bread
|
||||
Which came down from heaven, she was in the spirit; and saw the Lord nailed to the Cross
|
||||
advancing towards her. There was a great light round about Him, and five rays of light
|
||||
streaming from the five marks of the Wounds in His Feet, and Hands, and Side, which smote
|
||||
her upon the five corresponding places in her body. When Katharine perceived this vision,
|
||||
she besought the Lord that no marks might become manifest upon her flesh, and straightway
|
||||
the five beams of light changed from the colour of blood into that of gold, and touched in
|
||||
the form of pure light her feet, and hands, and side. At this moment the agony which she
|
||||
felt was so piercing, that she believed that if God had not lessened it, she would have
|
||||
died. Thus the Lord in His great love for her, gave her this great grace, in a new and
|
||||
twofold manner, namely, that she felt all the pain of the wounds, but without there being
|
||||
any bloody marks to meet the gaze of men. This was the account given by the handmaiden of
|
||||
God to her Confessor, Raymund, and it is for this reason that when the godly wishes of the
|
||||
faithful lead them to make pictures of the blessed Katharine, they paint her with golden
|
||||
rays of light proceeding from those five places in her body which correspond to the five
|
||||
places wherein our Lord was wounded by the nails and spear.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The learning which Katharine had was not acquired but inspired. She answered Professors
|
||||
of Divinity upon the very hardest questions concerning God. No one was ever in her company
|
||||
without going away better. She healed many hatreds, and quieted the most deadly feuds. To
|
||||
make peace for the Florentines, who had quarrelled with the Church, and were under an
|
||||
Ecclesiastical Interdict, she travelled to Avignon to see the Chief Pontiff Gregory XI. To
|
||||
him she showed that she had had revealed to her from heaven his secret purpose of going
|
||||
back to Rome, which had been known only to God and himself. It was at her persuasion, as
|
||||
well as by his own judgment, that the Pope did in the end return to his own See. She was
|
||||
much respected by this Gregory, as well as by his successor Urban VI, who even employed
|
||||
her in their embassies. The Bridegroom took her home when she was about thirty-three years
|
||||
old, after she had given almost countless proofs of extraordinary Christian graces, and
|
||||
manifestly displayed the gifts of Prophecy and miracles. Pope Pius II enrolled her among
|
||||
the Virgin Saints.

The martyr George beareth among the Easterns the title of the holy and glorious
|
||||
Archmartyr. He suffered a glorious death, for Christ's sake, in the persecution under
|
||||
Diocletian. When peace was given to the Church soon after, under Constantine, the memory
|
||||
of the martyr began to be celebrated, and churches were built under his invocation at
|
||||
Lydda in Palestine and at Constantinople. For thenceforth an extraordinary enthusiasm with
|
||||
regard to him grew up among the faithful, first in all parts of the East, and afterwards
|
||||
in the West. Of old time, when Christian armies had been about to fight, they have been
|
||||
used to call as patrons upon holy George, Maurice, and Sebastian. There had been already
|
||||
special honour paid in England to the holy martyr George, and the supreme Pontiff Benedict
|
||||
XIV declared him the protector of the whole kingdom.

Leo primus, Etruscus, eo tempore præfuit Ecclesiæ, cum rex Hunnorum Attila, cognomento
|
||||
Flagellum Dei, in Italiam invadens, Aquilejam triennii obsidione captam diripuit et
|
||||
incendit. Unde cum Romam ardenti furore raperetur, jamque copias, ubi Mincius in Padum
|
||||
influit, trajicere pararet, occurrit ei Leo, malorum Italiæ impendentium misericordia
|
||||
permotus: cujus divina eloquentia persuasum est Attilæ, ut regrederetur. Qui interrogatus
|
||||
a suis, quid esset quod præter consuetudinem tam humiliter Romani Pontificis imperata
|
||||
faceret; respondit, se astantem quemdam alium, illo loquente, sacerdotali habitu veritum
|
||||
esse, sibi stricto gladio minitantem mortem, nisi Leoni obtemperaret. Quare in Pannoniam
|

reversus est.
|

|
||||
|

Leo autem Romæ singulari omnium lætitia exceptus, paulo post invadenti Urbem Genserico,
|
||||
eadem eloquentiæ vi et sanctitatis opinione persuasit, ut ab incendio, ignominiis, ac
|
||||
cædibus abstineret. Sed cum Ecclesiam a multis hæresibus oppugnari, maximeque a
|
||||
Nestorianis et Eutychianis exagitari videret; ad eam purgandam, et in fide catholica
|
||||
confirmandam, concilium Chalcedonense indixit, ubi sexcentis triginta coactis episcopis,
|
||||
Eutyches et Dioscorus, et iterum Nestorius condemnati sunt: ejusdemque concilii decreta
|
||||
sua auctoritate confirmavit.
|
||||
|
||||
|

His actis, sanctus Pontifex se ad reficiendas et ædificandas ecclesias convertit. Cujus
|

suasu Demetria, pia femina, sancti Stephani ecclesiam construxit in suo fundo via
|
||||
Latina, tertio ab Urbe milliario: ipse via Appia sub nomine sancti Cornelii alteram

|

vicinum basilicæ sancti Petri: sepulcris Apostolorum custodes adhibuit, quos cubicularios
|
||||
appellavit. Statuit, ut in actione mysterii diceretur: Sanctum sacrificium, immaculatam
|

hostiam. Sanxit, ne monacha benedictum capitis velamen reciperet, nisi quadraginta
|

annorum virginitatem probasset. His et aliis præclare gestis, cum multa sancte et

Leo was an Etruscan who ruled the Church at the time when Attila, king of the Huns, whose
|
||||
surname is the Scourge of God, invaded Italy, and after a siege of three years, took,
|
||||
sacked, and burnt Aquileia. Thence he was hurrying to Rome, on fire with anger, and his
|
||||
troops were already preparing to cross the Po, at the place where that river is joined by
|
||||
the Mincio, when he was met by Leo, moved with compassion at the thought of the ruin which
|
||||
hung over Italy. By his God-given eloquence, Attila was persuaded to turn back, and when he
|
||||
was afterwards asked by his servants why, contrary to his custom, he had so meekly yielded
|
||||
to the entreaties of the Bishop of Rome, he answered that he had been alarmed by a figure
|
||||
dressed like a Priest, which had appeared at the side of Leo while he was speaking, holding
|
||||
a drawn sword, and had made as though to kill the king unless he consented. And so he
|
||||
returned into Pannonia.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Leo went back to Rome, where he was received with rejoicing by all men. A while later,
|
||||
Genseric entered the city, but Leo, by the power of his eloquence and the authority of his
|
||||
holy life, persuaded him to abstain from fire, insult, and slaughter. When Leo beheld how
|
||||
the Church was assailed by many heresies, and in dire trouble through the Nestorians and
|
||||
Eutychians, to purify the same and establish her in the Catholic Faith, he called the
|
||||
Council of Chalcedon, where, in an assembly of six hundred and thirty Bishops, Nestorius
|
||||
was again condemned, along with Eutyches and Dioscorus; the decrees of which Council were
|
||||
confirmed by the authority of Leo.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
After these matters, this holy Pope set himself to the restoration and building of
|
||||
Churches. By his advice that godly woman Demetria built the Church of St. Stephen upon
|
||||
her farm on the Latin Road, at the third milestone from the city. He himself built another
|
||||
Church upon the Appian Way, which Church is called that of St. Cornelius. He restored
|
||||
likewise many other Churches, and the holy vessels used therein. He built Clergy-houses at
|
||||
the three Basilicas of Peter, Paul, and Constantine. He built a monastery hard by the
|
||||
Basilica of St. Peter. He appointed for the graves of the Apostles certain keepers, whom
|
||||
he called the Chamberlains of the said Apostles. He ordained that in the action of the
|
||||
Mystery should be uttered the words An holy sacrifice, an offering without spot. He
|
||||
ordered that no nun should have the covering of her head blessed until she had made trial
|
||||
of her virginity for forty years. After doing all these and other illustrious works, and
|
||||
after he had written much that is both godly and easy to be understood, he fell asleep in
|
||||
the Lord on the eleventh day of April. He held the Papal See for twenty years, one month,
|
||||
and thirteen days.

Mark was the disciple and interpreter of Peter, and it was from what he had heard Peter
|
||||
tell, that, at the request of the brethren at Rome, he wrote the shortest of the Gospels.
|
||||
When Peter had heard it, he approved it, and gave it to the Church to be read, by his
|
||||
authority. Mark betook himself to Egypt, with the Gospel which he had compiled, and was
|
||||
the first man who preached Christ at Alexandria. There he founded a Church with such
|
||||
teaching and austerity of life, that all who followed Christ were constrained to imitate
|
||||
him.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Last of all, Philo, that most learned Jew, observing that the first Church of Alexandria
|
||||
still kept the law of Moses, wrote a book concerning their manners, as if in praise of his
|
||||
own nation, wherein he saith that under the teaching of Mark, the Christians of Alexandria
|
||||
had all things in common, just as Luke telleth us was the case with all them that believed
|
||||
at Jerusalem. Mark died in the eighth year of Nero, and was buried at Alexandria. Anianus

succeeded him.

Petrus, Veronæ paréntibus Manichæórum hæresi infectis natus, ab ipsa pæne infántia

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.

Robertus in Campania, nobilibus ortus parentibus, cum matri suæ de illo prægnanti, Dei

Mater apparuisset, et digitum ejus annulo subarrasset dicens, velle, ut suus esset
|

sponsus filius, quem in utero portabat: quod fuit causa, ut omnia sua Monasteria ipsius
|

Dei Matris nomini consecrarentur: annum agens undecimum apud sanctum Petrum de Cella
|
||||
suscepit habitum regularem. Ubi jejuniis, et orationibus vacans nocte, et die gratum Deo
|
||||
exhibebat obsequium, carnem spiritui, spiritum Creatori subjiciens. Ipso sic disponente,
|
||||
a Monachis illius Monasterii electus in Priorem, a Tornodorensibus in Abbatem cooptatur.
|

|

|

Postea a quibusdam Eremitis fuit rogatus, ut idem munus super eis admitteret; quorum

votis satisfecisset, nisi Tornodorenses Monachi reclamassent. Dimittens nuntios spem
|
||||
illis certam dedit se quam cito facultas tribueretur ei a Domino, ad eos profecturum.
|
||||
Assumptis posteà duobus sociis, iit ad nemus, cujus nomen Molismus erat, ubi propriis
|
||||
manibus laborantes, ex ramis arborum domicilia, et oratorium construxerunt, in eoque
|
||||
Domino salutares hostias, et sacrificium contriti cordis offerebant. Sed cum maxime
|
||||
desideraret ubicumque servi Dei reperiebantur, ipse quoque reperiri, venit ad locum
|
||||
Hauz, et devote ab istis Monachis susceptus, paulo post Abbatem illum elegerunt.
|

De suo tamen secessu Molismenses contristati Summum Pontificem adjerunt; ejusque
|

auctoritate freti virum Dei revocavere Molismum, in quo aliqui, ut Albericus, et
|
||||
Stephanus, et alii duo, cum Eremiticam vitam appeterent, ad locum, Vivicus dictum
|
||||
profecti sunt; sed ab illo pulsi, ad sylvam Cistertium vocatam, devenerunt, ubi ædificato
|
||||
Oratorio in honorem Beatæ Mariæ, perseveraverunt. Audiens autem beatus Robertus sanctam
|
||||
ipsorum conversationem, assumptis secum vigintiduobus monachis perrexit ad eos, ut sancti
|
||||
eorum propositi esset particeps, et adjutor, a quibuscum summa devotione susceptus,
|

Tanto pastore destitui ægre ferentes Monachi Molismi, Summum Pontificem adjerunt, ut

Robert was born in Champagne of noble parents; when his mother was with child of him, the
|
||||
Mother of God appeared to her, and betrothed her finger with a ring, saying that she
|
||||
willed the son she was carrying in her womb to be her own spouse — for which cause all his
|
||||
monasteries were consecrated to the name of that same Mother of God. At the age of eleven
|
||||
he took the religious habit at the monastery of Saint-Pierre-de-Cella. There, devoting
|
||||
himself to fasting and prayer by night and by day, he rendered service pleasing to God,
|
||||
subjecting the flesh to the spirit, and the spirit to the Creator. By God's own disposing
|
||||
he was chosen Prior by the monks of that monastery, and afterwards co-opted Abbot by
|
||||
those of Tonnerre.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Afterwards he was asked by certain hermits to take up the same office over them; whose
|
||||
wishes he would have granted, had not the monks of Tonnerre protested. Sending back their
|
||||
messengers, he gave them sure hope that he would come to them as soon as the Lord should
|
||||
grant him the means. Later, taking two companions with him, he went to the forest called
|
||||
Molesme, where, labouring with their own hands, they built dwellings and an oratory out
|
||||
of the branches of trees, and there offered to the Lord saving sacrifices and the
|
||||
sacrifice of a contrite heart. But as he greatly desired that, wherever servants of God
|
||||
were to be found, he himself might also be found among them, he came to the place called
|
||||
Aux, and being devoutly received by those monks, was shortly afterwards chosen their
|
||||
Abbot.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The monks of Molesme, grieved at his withdrawal, went to the Supreme Pontiff; and,
|
||||
relying on his authority, recalled the man of God to Molesme. Meanwhile certain of the
|
||||
brethren — Alberic, Stephen, and two others — desiring the eremitical life, set out for
|
||||
the place called Vivicus; but being driven from there, they came to the forest called
|
||||
Cîteaux, where, having built an Oratory in honour of the Blessed Mary, they persevered.
|
||||
When blessed Robert heard of their holy manner of life, he took with him twenty-two monks
|
||||
and went to join them, that he might share in and assist their holy purpose; and, being
|
||||
received by them with the greatest devotion, he governed them for a time with fatherly
|
||||
solicitude.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The monks of Molesme, taking it ill to be deprived of so great a shepherd, went again to
|
||||
the Supreme Pontiff, that he might compel blessed Robert to return to Molesme. The
|
||||
Pontiff, granting their request, wrote to the Bishop of Châlons that, another Abbot

having been ordained for the Cistercians, he should compel Robert to return to Molesme.
|
||||
Having therefore settled what pertained to the observance according to the Rule of St.
|
||||
Benedict, he set Alberic over them in his own place as Abbot, and upon his death Stephen
|
||||
succeeded him. And so blessed Robert, having been the founder of that new planting, while
|
||||
holding the government of both monasteries — that of Molesme, and that of Cîteaux —
|
||||
returned a second time to Molesme. At length, when his death drew near, the Lord revealed
|
||||
to him the hour of it, and in the ninety-third year of his age, renowned for miracles, he
|
||||
sent forth his spirit to heaven, on the third day before the Kalends of May, in the year
|
||||
of the Lord one thousand ninety-eight.

# Matins Nocturn 2 reading for St. Vitalis, Martyr (Apr 28) — the

# correct Tridentine file is the suffixed `Sancti/04-28o.txt` (the

Vitalis miles, sanctorum Gervasii et Protasii pater, una cum Paulino judice Ravennam
|
||||
ingressus, cum vidisset Ursicinum medicum ob christianæ fidei confessionem ductum ad
|
||||
supplicium, paululum in tormentis titubare, exclamavit: Ursicine medice, qui alios
|
||||
curare solitus es, cave ne te mortis æternæ jaculo conficias. Qua voce confirmatus
|
||||
Ursicinus, martyrium fortiter subivit. Quare Paulinus incensus Vitalem comprehendi
|
||||
jubet, et equuleo tortum, atque in profundam foveam demersum, lapidibus obrui. Quo facto
|
||||
quidam Apollinis sacerdos, qui Paulinum in Vitalem incitarat, oppressus a dæmone, clamare
|
||||
cœpit: Tu me nimium Vitalis Christi Martyr incendis: et illo æstu jactatus, se
|
||||
præcipitavit in flumen.

Vitalis was a soldier, and the father of the holy Martyrs Gervase and Protase. He went to
|
||||
Ravenna with Paulinus the judge, and there saw the physician Ursicinus led out to die,
|
||||
because he owned to being a believer in Christ. As the torments went on, Ursicinus seemed
|
||||
to waver a little, and Vitalis cried out to him, Ursicinus! as a physician thou hast been
|
||||
used to heal other men's bodies, take heed lest thou let thine own soul die eternally.
|
||||
These words encouraged Ursicinus, and he endured bravely in his testimony even unto the
|
||||
end; but Paulinus was filled with fury, and caused Vitalis to be seized, tormented on the
|
||||
rack, and finally thrown into a pit and buried under an heap of stones. When it was over,
|
||||
a certain priest of Apollo, who had urged on Paulinus against Vitalis, was seized by the
|
||||
devil, and began to cry out, Vitalis, Vitalis, thou art Christ's Martyr, but thou makest
|
||||
me to burn, thou makest me to burn, until in that phrenzy he threw himself into the river.
