Author Matins Nocturn 2/3 patristic readings for the whole post-Pentecost season
Deploy / deploy (push) Successful in 1m27s

Closes the gap the user found on 2026-08-23 (post-pentecost-13's Matins had
no patristic reading): nocturn-readings/ had content for only one temporal
id (post-pentecost-15, the original mechanism proof date). Since
resolveTemporalId maps every day in a liturgical week to the same id, one
file per id covers the whole week — authored all 23 remaining
post-pentecost-NN ids (01-14, 16-24) from the reference engine's own
Tempora/PentNN-0.txt files. Trinity Sunday (01) keeps its own full proper
office including a displaced-Sunday commemoration; 02-11 have real Nocturn
2+3 content; 12 onward are Nocturn-3-only (homily, Gospel incipit skipped
per convention), reusing the same two responsories the source itself
cross-references week to week.

Rest of the temporal cycle (Advent/Christmas/Epiphany/Septuagesima/Lent/
Easter) is a separate follow-up pass, tracked in TODO.md.

# Nocturn 2-3, Trinity Sunday (temporalId post-pentecost-01, the Sunday
# after Pentecost - Duplex I classis, own full proper office, unlike the
# ordinary Sundays that follow it). Sourced from Tempora/Pent01-0.txt. See
# post-pentecost-02.yml for general sweep method.
#
# Nocturn 2 (Lectio4-6): one continuous excerpt from St. Fulgentius' book on
# the Faith addressed to Peter, on the Trinity. Responsory: Lectio4's own
# (the same "Percússit Saul" text reused for the Nocturn 2 slot every week
# this season, transcribed directly here rather than left as a
# cross-reference - Pent01 is itself the source the other weeks point back
# to via @Tempora/Pent01-2:ResponsoryN).
#
# Nocturn 3 has two distinct readings, since this is a major feast with its
# own extra "Commemoratio Dominicae" for the First Sunday after Pentecost it
# displaces: (a) Lectio7 bare incipit (Matt 28:18-20) skipped; Lectio7-8a is
# one continuous homily by St. Gregory Nazianzen, on the Trinity, combined,
# using the "Duo Séraphim" responsory (Responsory8), reused every week; (b)
# Lectio9 is a wholly separate single-lesson reading, explicitly marked in
# the source as "Commemoratio Dominicae" - St. Augustine's homily on the
# displaced First Sunday after Pentecost's own Gospel (Luke 6:36-42). Its
# Gospel incipit is likewise bare and skipped, leaving the homily alone. No
# responsory is proper to this final lesson in the source (it runs straight
# to the Te Deum after Responsory8's Gloria repeat), so none is authored
# here.

Fides, quam sancti Patriárchæ atque Prophétæ ante incarnatiónem Fílii Dei divínitus accepérunt,
quam étiam sancti Apóstoli ab ipso Dómino in carne pósito audiérunt, et Spíritus Sancti magistério
instrúcti non solum sermóne prædicavérunt, verum étiam ad instructiónem salubérrimam posterórum
scriptis suis índitam reliquérunt; unum Deum prǽdicat Trinitátem, id est, Patrem, et Fílium, et
Spíritum Sanctum. Sed Trínitas vera non esset, si una eadémque persóna dicerétur Pater et Fílius
et Spíritus Sanctus.
Si enim, sicut est Patris, et Fílii, et Spíritus Sancti una substántia, sic esset una persóna;
nihil omníno esset in quo veráciter Trínitas dicerétur. Rursus quidem Trínitas esset vera, sed
unus Deus Trínitas ipsa non esset, si quemádmodum Pater, et Fílius, et Spíritus Sanctus personárum
sunt ab ínvicem proprietáte distíncti, sic fuíssent naturárum quoque diversitáte discréti. Sed
quia in illo uno vero Deo Trinitáte, non solum quod unus Deus est, sed étiam quod Trínitas est,
naturáliter verum est; proptérea ipse verus Deus in persónis Trínitas est, et in una natúra unus
est.
Per hanc unitátem naturálem totus Pater in Fílio et Spíritu Sancto est, totus Fílius in Patre et
Spíritu Sancto est, totus quoque Spíritus Sanctus in Patre et Fílio. Nullus horum extra
quémlibet ipsórum est: quia nemo álium aut præcédit æternitáte, aut excédit magnitúdine, aut
súperat potestáte: quia nec Fílio nec Spíritu Sancto, quantum ad natúræ divínæ unitátem pértinet,
aut antérior aut major Pater est; nec Fílii ætérnitas atque imménsitas, velut antérior aut major,
Spíritus Sancti immensitátem æternitatémque aut præcédere aut excédere naturáliter potest.

The Faith which the holy Patriarchs and Prophets received from God before His Son was made
Flesh, the Faith which the holy Apostles heard from the Lord Himself when Present in the Flesh,
the Faith which the same Apostles learnt by the teaching of the Holy Ghost not only to preach by
word of mouth, but also to leave behind them in their writings for the healthful instruction of
all that should come after, that Faith teacheth that the Trinity, that is to say, the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Ghost, is but One God. But we could not truly call the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Ghost a Trinity, if One and the Selfsame Person were named Father, Son, and Holy
Ghost.
Nor if as the Being of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost is One Being, so were there but
One Person, then were it untrue to say that God is a Trinity. On the other hand, if, as the
Persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost are distinguished One from Another by that
which is proper to Each, so were They diverse by difference of nature, then were it untrue to say
that God is One. But since concerning the nature of the One True God, Who is a Trinity, it is the
Truth to say that God is One, and the Truth to say that God is a Trinity, therefore the True God
is a Trinity in Persons, and an Unity in nature.
Through this Oneness of nature All That the Father is is in the Son and the Holy Ghost, All That
the Son is is in the Father and the Holy Ghost, and All That the Holy Ghost is is in the Father
and the Son. Of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, None is without Other, None is before
Other, None is Greater than Other, None is Mightier than Other. The Father, as touching the One
Divine Nature, is neither before nor greater than the Son and the Holy Ghost neither is it
possible that the Eternity and Infinity of the Son, whether as before or greater, should be
before or greater than the Eternity and Infinity of the Spirit.

Quis catholicórum ignórat Patrem vere esse Patrem, Fílium vere esse Fílium, et Spíritum Sanctum
vere esse Spíritum Sanctum? sicut ipse Dóminus ad Apóstolos suos dicit: Eúntes baptizáte omnes
gentes in nómine Patris, et Fílii, et Spíritus Sancti. Hæc est perfécta Trínitas in unitáte
consístens, quam scílicet uníus substántiæ profitémur. Non enim nos secúndum córporum
conditiónem, divisiónem in Deo fácimus; sed secúndum divínæ natúræ poténtiam, quæ in matéria non
est, et nóminum persónas vere constáre crédimus, et unitátem divinitátis esse testámur.
Nec extensiónem partis alicújus ex parte, ut quidam putavérunt, Dei Fílium dícimus: nec verbum
sine re, velut sonum vocis, accípimus: sed tria nómina et tres persónas uníus esse esséntiæ,
uníus majestátis atque poténtiæ crédimus. Et ídeo unum Deum confitémur: quia únitas majestátis,
plúrium vocábulo deos próhibet appellári. Dénique Patrem et Fílium cathólice nominámus; duos
autem Deos dícere, nec póssumus, nec debémus. Non quod Fílius Dei Deus non sit, immo verus Deus
de Deo vero; sed quia non aliúnde, quam de ipso uno Patre, Dei Fílium nóvimus, perínde unum Deum
dícimus. Hoc enim Prophétæ, hoc Apóstoli tradidérunt: hoc ipse Dóminus dócuit, cum dicit: Ego et
Pater unum sumus. Unum ad unitátem divinitátis, ut dixi, refert; Sumus autem, persónis assígnat.

There is no Catholic but knoweth that the Father is a Very Father, the Son a Very Son, and the
Holy Ghost a Very Holy Ghost, even as the Lord Himself saith unto His Apostles: "Go ye and
baptize all nations in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." This is
that Perfect Trinity Who is but One being, and of Whom therefore we testify that His Substance is
one. For we make no division in God, as divisions are made in bodies, but we testify, that,
according to the power of the Divine Nature, Which standeth not in matter, the Persons named have
a real existence, and that God is One.
We do not say, as some have dreamt, that the Begetting of the Son of God is an outgrowing from
one part to another part neither do we say that He is the Word in the sense of a mere sound
uttered by a voice, but we do believe that these three Names and the Persons meant by them are
all of only One Being, One Majesty, and One Power. And therefore we testify that God is one,
because this One-ness of His Majesty forbiddeth that we should use the Plural form of speech and
say, "Gods." It is Catholic language to say, "Father and Son," but we cannot and must not say
that the Father and the Son are two gods. And that, not because the Son of God is not by Himself
God; yea, He is Very God of Very God but because we know that the Son of God is not from
elsewhere, but from the One Father Himself, and therefore we say that God is One. This is the
doctrine which Prophets and Apostles have delivered; this is the doctrine which the Lord Himself
taught when He said: "I and the Father are One" (John x. 30), that is, He meant, as touching the
one Divine Being, but as touching Persons, We are distinct.

Duo sunt ópera misericórdiæ, quæ nos líberant, quæ bréviter ipse Dóminus pósuit in Evangélio:
Dimíttite, et dimittétur vobis: date, et dábitur vobis. Dimíttite, et dimittétur vobis, ad
ignoscéndum pértinet: Date, et dábitur vobis, ad præstándum benefícium pértinet. Quod ait de
ignoscéndo, et tu vis tibi ignósci quod peccas, et habes álium, cui tu possis ignóscere. Rursus,
quod pértinet ad tribuéndum benefícium, petit te mendícus, et tu es Dei mendícus. Omnes enim
quando orámus, mendíci Dei sumus: ante jánuam magni Patrisfamílias stamus, immo et prostérnimur,
súpplices ingemíscimus, áliquid voléntes accípere; et ipsum áliquid ipse Deus est. Quid a te
petit mendícus? Panem. Et tu quid petis a Deo, nisi Christum, qui dicit: Ego sum panis vivus, qui
de cælo descéndi? Ignósci vobis vultis? ignóscite: Remíttite, et remittétur vobis. Accípere
vultis? date, et dábitur vobis.

There are two works of mercy which free us, and which the Lord Himself hath briefly named in the
Gospel "Forgive, and ye shall be forgiven give, and it shall be given unto you." "Forgive, and ye
shall be forgiven", such is the promise of pardon. "Give, and it shall be given unto you", such
is the promise of favour. As touching forgiveness thou hast trespasses which thou wouldest fain
have forgiven, and them which have trespassed against thee, whom thou canst forgive. As touching
favour, there are beggars that beg from thee, and thou art a beggar to God. When we pray, we are
all beggars to God, standing at the door of the Great Householder, yea, falling down on our
knees, and beseeching Him to give us somewhat and that somewhat is God Himself. What doth a
beggar ask of thee Bread. And what dost thou ask of God but that Christ Who saith: "I am the
Living Bread Which came down from heaven?" If ye will be forgiven, forgive ye. If ye will be
pardoned, pardon ye. If ye will receive, "give, and it shall be given unto you."
