A star giveth forth her rays + without any harm to herself, and the Virgin brought forth her + Son without any hurt to her virginity. The light of a star + taketh nothing away from the star itself, and the birth of her + offspring took nothing away from the Virginity of Mary. She is + that noble star which was to come out of Jacob, whose brightness + still sheddeth lustre upon all the earth, whose rays are most + brilliant in heaven, and shine even unto hell, lighting up earth + midway, and warming souls rather than bodies, fostering good and + scaring away evil. She, I say, is a clear and shining star, + twinkling with excellencies, and resplendent with example, + needfully set to look down upon the surface of this great and + wide sea. + + + Thou, whosoever thou art, that knowest thyself to be here not so + much walking upon firm ground, as battered to and fro by the + gales and storms of this life's ocean, if thou wouldest not be + overwhelmed by the tempest, keep thine eyes fixed upon this + star's clear shining. If the hurricanes of temptation rise + against thee, or thou art running upon the rocks of trouble, look + to the star, call on Mary. If the waves of pride, or ambition, or + slander, or envy toss thee, look to the star, call on Mary. If + the billows of anger or avarice, or the enticements of the flesh + beat against thy soul's bark, look to Mary. If the enormity of + thy sins trouble thee, if the foulness of thy conscience confound + thee, if the dread of judgment appall thee, if thou begin to slip + into the deep of despondency, into the pit of despair, think of + Mary. + + + In danger, in difficulty, or in doubt, think on Mary, call on + Mary. Let her not be away from thy mouth or from thine heart, and + that thou mayest not lack the succour of her prayers, turn not + aside from the example of her conversation. If thou follow her, + thou wilt never go astray. If thou pray to her, thou wilt never + have need to despair. If thou keep her in mind, thou wilt never + wander. If she hold thee, thou wilt never fall. If she lead + thee, thou wilt never be weary. If she help thee, thou wilt reach + home safe at the last; and so thou wilt prove in thyself how + meetly it is said: And the virgin's name was Mary. Particular + honours were already paid to this worshipful name in diverse + parts of the Christian world, but the Bishop of Rome, Innocent + XI, ordered this Feast in honour of it to be held every year + throughout the whole Church, as an everlasting thanksgiving for + the great blessing that, under her protection, the brutal Sultan + of the Turks, who was trampling upon the necks of the Christian + population, was thoroughly beaten before the walls of Vienna. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } + + - nocturn: 3 + isGospel: false + source: "St. Peter Chrysologus, Sermon 142, on the Annunciation" + text: + la: >- + Audístis hódie, fratres caríssimi, Angelum cum muliere de hóminis + reparatióne tractántem.

Ye have heard + how an Angel set about to raise with unspeakable building a + temple of the Divine Majesty out of the dust of the earth.

Fear not, Mary, for thou hast + found grace. He that hath found grace, need fear no more. Thou + hast found grace. + + + Blessed is she who alone among mankind, and first among mankind + deserved to hear: Thou hast found grace. And how much grace? + Even as the Angel had said: Full! Full of grace. Full indeed! + Grace like a bountiful shower drenched and soaked her whole + being. For thou hast found grace with God. As he saith this, + even the Angel doth marvel. He marvelleth that a woman should + merit eternal life, that all men should merit it through her. + The Angel marvelleth that the whole Godhead, he to whom the + entire universe is small, should enter the narrow womb of a + virgin.

Amid such sorrows the most Blessed Queen of heaven + came mercifully to the rescue, and showed how the greatness of + her motherly love was fain for their redemption. Holy Peter + Nolasco, in the full bloom of the treasures of godliness as well + as rich in earthly wealth, was earnestly pondering with himself + how he could succour so many suffering Christians dwelling in + bondage to the Moors. To him appeared with gracious visage the + Most Blessed Virgin, and bade him know that it would be well + pleasing in her own sight, and in the sight of her Only-begotten + Son, that an Order of Religious men should be founded in her + honour, whose work it should be to redeem prisoners from + Mohammedan slavery. Strengthened by this heavenly vision, the man + of God began to burn with wonderful charity, nursing in his + heart the one desire that he himself and the Order which he + should found might exercise that love, greater than which hath + no man, that a man lay down his life for his friends. + + + Upon the same night the same most holy Virgin appeared to the + Blessed Raymund de Penafuerte, and to James, King of Aragon, + charging them concerning the founding of the Order, and desiring + them to help in raising up so great a work. Peter betook himself + forthwith to the feet of Raymund, who was his confessor, and + laid the matter before him, whom also he found taught from + heaven, and to whose governance he right humbly submitted + himself. Then came King James, who appointed to carry out this + revelation, which himself also had received from the Most + Blessed Virgin. The three took counsel together, and all with + one consent entered upon the institution of an Order in honour + of the said Virgin Mother, to be placed under the invocation of + St. Mary of Ransom, for the redemption of captives. + + + Upon the 10th of August, in the year of our Lord 1218, the + above-named King James decreed the establishment of this Order, + thus already conceived by these holy men. The brethren take, in + addition to the vows of Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience, a + fourth vow, whereby they bind themselves to remain in pawn with + the unbelievers, if need so require, for the liberation of + Christians. The King granted them the right to bear on their + breasts his own Royal blazon, and obtained from Gregory IX. the + confirmation of this Institute and Order so nobly marked by + brotherly charity. God Himself, through the Virgin Mother, gave + the increase, causing this Institute speedily and prosperously + to spread through all the world, and to blossom with holy men, + great in love and godliness, to spend in the redemption of their + neighbours the alms which are committed to them by Christ's + faithful people, to that end, and some whiles to give themselves + up for the ransom of many. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } diff --git a/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/seven-sorrows-of-the-bvm.yml b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/seven-sorrows-of-the-bvm.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..a6cb641 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/seven-sorrows-of-the-bvm.yml @@ -0,0 +1,80 @@ +# Matins Nocturn 3 reading for the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin +# Mary (Sep 15).

Men had forsaken Him, but + she stood there fearless. Behold how the Mother of Jesus could + break through her shrinking modesty, but could not belie her + heart. With the eyes of a mother's love she gazed upon the Wounds + of her Son, those Wounds through Which she knew that redemption + for all mankind was flowing. The Mother, who feared not the + executioners, was able to endure the sight of their work. Her + Son was hanging upon the Cross, and she braved His tormentors. + + + Mary, the Mother of the Lord, stood by the Cross of her Son. My + only informant of this fact is the holy Evangelist John. Others + have written that when the Lord suffered, the earth quaked, the + heavens were veiled in darkness, the sun was hidden, and the + thief received, after a good confession, the promise of + Paradise. John hath taught us what the others have not taught + us. Upon the Cross He called her Mother. It is reckoned a + greater thing that in the moment of triumph over agony, He + should have discharged the watchful duty of a Son to His Mother, + than that He should have made gift of the kingdom of heaven. For + if it be a sacred thing to have forgiven the thief, this so + great kindness of the Son to the Mother is to be worshipped as + the outcome of a tenderer and more touching love. + + + Behold, saith the Lord, thy son: Behold thy Mother! Christ bore + witness from the Cross, and divided the offices of his tender + love between his Mother and his disciple.

The love of God came to him early, + and he passed his childhood and youth in great guilelessness and + harmlessness. After recovering by the help of the Virgin Mother + of God from a long and painful sickness which he bore very + quietly, he gave himself altogether to godliness and + self-improvement. God called him inwardly to higher things, and + to give himself more utterly to His service, he determined in + himself to join the "Seraphic" Order. After diverse failures and + changes, he obtained his wish among the Friars of the convent of + "La Grotella." He went first as a lay-brother, on account of his + ignorance of letters, but God was pleased to allow him afterwards + to be taken among the choir brethren. After taking his solemn + vows he was ordained Priest, and then set before him to aim at a + more perfect life. To this end (as far as in him lay) he thrust + from him all earthly affections and all carnal things, even to + such as seem almost needful for life. He tormented his body with + haircloth, scourging, spiked chains, and every kind of hardship + and affliction. He fed his spirit sweetly upon the constant + exercise of holy prayer, and gazing upon the highest matters. And + so it came to pass that the love of God, which had been + enkindled in his heart from his earliest years, burnt forth day + by day more strangely and openly. + + + The chief outcome of this love of God was the strong and + marvellous trances whereinto he oftentimes fell. It was, + nevertheless, strange to observe that after he had entirely lost + his senses he could be called out of the trance by the mere + order of his superiors. To be utterly obedient was one of his + chief aims, and he was used to say that those who ruled him + could lead him about like a blind man, and that it was better to + die than not to obey. He so imitated the poverty of the Seraphic + Patriarch, that when he was at the point of death, he was able + to tell his Superior that he had absolutely nothing. Thus + bearing about in his body the dying of the Lord Jesus, the life + also of Jesus was made manifest in his body. When he saw that + certain persons had committed a foul sin of uncleanness, there + came from him a strong savour, a proof of that snowy and + glorious purity which, in spite of the most hideous temptations + whereby the unclean spirit wrestled long to darken it, he kept + undefiled, partly by an iron bridling of his senses, partly by + the stern punishments he inflicted upon his own body, and partly + by the extraordinary protection of the pure Virgin Mary, whom he + was used to call his own Mother. + + + This eagerness on the part of the blessed Joseph was but one + outcome from his love for his neighbours. So great was his zeal + for souls, that he vehemently sought in all ways for the + salvation of all. They who reviled, and slandered, and insulted + himself were not cut off from his love. He was used to welcome + such with great long-suffering, meekness, and cheerfulness of + countenance. But God, Who exalteth them of low degree, glorified + His servant during life with the gifts of heavenly wisdom, of + prophecy, of discerning the hidden thoughts of the heart, of + healing, and of other spiritual gifts in marvellous abundance, + gave him a precious death, and made the place of his rest + glorious. He fell asleep in Jesus upon the very day and at the + very place foretold by himself, that is, at Osimo, in the 61st + year of his own age. He was famous for miracles even after his + death, and Benedict XIV. enrolled his name among those of the + Blessed, and Clement XIII. among those of the Saints. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } + + - nocturn: 3 + isGospel: false + source: "Pope St. Gregory the Great, Bk.

For indeed it is with + great searchings of heart that we are behoven to consider that + which so soon cometh. "And when the King came in to see the + guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding-garment." + Dearly beloved brethren, what are we to think is signified by + this wedding garment? Is it baptism or is it faith? But without + baptism, or without faith, who could be seated at the + marriage-feast? He that believeth not would still be without + the house. What then, except love, must we understand by the + wedding-garment? He who hath faith and is in the Holy Church, + but hath not charity, cometh in unto the wedding indeed, but + hath not a wedding-garment. And charity is well called the + wedding-garment, for it is the garment wherewithal our Maker + decked Himself when He came to wed the Church unto Himself. + + + It was the work of God's love alone that His Only-begotten Son + should wed Himself unto the souls of the elect. Whence indeed + John saith: "God so loved the world, that He gave His + Only-begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not + perish, but have everlasting life." He therefore Whom love + brought among men, showeth that the same love is His + wedding-garment. Each one therefore of you who is in the Church + and believeth in God, hath already come in unto the + marriage-feast, but if he keep not the grace of charity, he is + come in thither not having a wedding-garment. In sooth, my + brethren, if one be asked to an earthly marriage, he changeth + his attire, to show even by his garments that he rejoiceth in + the joy of the Bride and Bridegroom. We are come unto God's + marriage-feast, and we make pretence to change the vesture of + our hearts. + + + We must know that as every garment is woven upon two beams, an + upper and a lower, so love is bound unto two commandments, the + one bidding us to love God, and the other to love our neighbour. + For thus is it written: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with + all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." + And the second is like unto it: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour + as thyself." In the which we are to see that bounds are set to + that love wherewith we are to love our neighbour, for it is + said: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." But to the + love wherewith we are to love God are set no bounds, for it is + said: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and + with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." A man is not + commanded to what point he is to love God, but from what point, + even as it is said, "with all"; for he only truly loveth God, + who leaveth nothing for himself. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } diff --git a/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-lawrence-justinian.yml b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-lawrence-justinian.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..3a8856c --- /dev/null +++ b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-lawrence-justinian.yml @@ -0,0 +1,149 @@ +# Matins Nocturn 2 reading for St. Lawrence Justinian, Bishop and +# Confessor (Sep 5).

He passed a godly boyhood, and feeling the Divine + Wisdom calling him to a pure marriage between his own soul and the + Word of God, he began to think of becoming a monk. He therefore + tried in private some of the exercises of this new warfare, and, + among other afflictions of his body, used to sleep upon the bare + boards. As he thus sat weighing on the one hand the pleasures of + the world, and a marriage which his mother wished to bring about + for him, and, on the other, the hardness of the cloister, he + turned his eyes upon the Cross of the suffering Christ, and said: + "Thou, O Lord, art my trust; there hast Thou made my surest + refuge." He entered among the Canons of St-George's-in-the-sea- + weed, where he devised new tortures and declared war against + himself as his own worst enemy. He allowed himself no enjoyment, + so that he would not even go into the private garden of the + house, neither did he ever go thenceforth into the house of his + own father, except when his mother was dying, and he went there + with dry eyes to pay her the last offices of a son's duty and + affection. His obedience, gentleness, and especially his lowliness + were very great. He went out of his way to take the meanest + pieces of work about the house. He used to go to the most public + places of the city, seeking, not so much for food as for mockery, + and bore unmoved and in silence the insults and slanders which + were cast upon him. He found his ever-present help in prayer, + wherein he became often beside himself and rapt in God, and such + was the warmth that burned in his heart, that he stirred up + failing comrades to hold bravely on and to love Jesus Christ. + + + Eugene IV named him Bishop of Venice, an office which he very + earnestly struggled to avoid, and which he discharged with great + honour. He changed in no wise way of living, but kept always to + his beloved poverty in his table, his furniture, and his bed. He + kept but a small household, saying that he had another very + large one, in Christ's poor. At what hour soever any one came to + see him, he was always ready to receive them, he helped all with + the tenderness of a father, not refusing to charge himself with + debts, that he might have wherewith to relieve misery. When he was + asked with what hope he incurred these liabilities, he answered: + "With hope in my Master, Who can easily meet them for me." And the + Providence of God put not his hope to shame, but helped him + amply with unexpected funds. He built several Convents of nuns, + for whom his watchful care ordered a more perfect way of living. + He laboured much to wean married women from worldly folly and + display, and to reform the discipline of the Church and the lives + of all. He was indeed worthy that Eugene should call him in the + presence of the Cardinals "the glory and ornament of the + Episcopate," and that his successor Nicholas V should transfer + the title of Patriarch from Grado, and create him the first + Patriarch of Venice. + + + He was eminent for the gift of tears, in which he offered up to + God every day the Sacrifice of atonement. When he was so doing + one Christmas Midnight, he won to see Christ Jesus in the form of + a little Child exceeding fair to look upon. Such was his care of + the flock committed to his charge, that it was sometime revealed + from heaven that the Commonwealth had been saved by the prayers + of her Bishop. He was inspired with the spirit of prophecy, and + fore-told many things which no wit of man could have perceived. + By his prayers he often put diseases and devils to flight. Though + very ignorant of letters, he wrote books which breathe heavenly + teaching and godliness. When he fell into his last deadly + sickness, his servants got ready a more comfortable bed for the + suffering old man, but he turned away from such ease as so + different from the hardness of the Cross upon which his Master + had died. He ordered himself to be laid upon the planks to which + he was accustomed, and when he knew that the end of his life was + come, he looked up to heaven and said: "O good Jesus, I am coming + to thee," and so fell asleep in the Lord on the 8th day of + January. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } diff --git a/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-pius-x.yml b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-pius-x.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..cfcf508 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-pius-x.yml @@ -0,0 +1,209 @@ +# Matins Nocturn 2-3 readings for St. Pius X, Pope and Confessor +# (Sep 3).

He enrolled among the + students in the seminary of Padua, where he exhibited such piety + and learning that he was both an example to his fellow students and + the admiration of his teachers. Upon his ordination to the + priesthood, he labored for several years first as curate in the + town of Tombolo, then as pastor at Salzano. He applied himself to + his duties with such a constant flow of charity and such priestly + zeal, and was so distinguished by the holiness of his life, that + the Bishop of Treviso appointed him as a canon of the cathedral + church and made him the chancellor of the bishop's curia, as well + as spiritual director of the diocesan seminary. His performance in + these duties was so outstanding and so highly impressed Leo XIII, + that he made him bishop of the Church of Mantua. + + + Lacking in nothing that makes a good pastor, he labored + particularly to teach young men called to the priesthood, as well + as fostering the growth of devout associations and the beauty and + dignity of divine worship. He would ever affirm and promote the + laws upon which Christian civilization depend, and while leading + himself a life of poverty, never missed the opportunity to + alleviate the burden of poverty in others. Because of his great + merits, he was made a cardinal and created Patriarch of Venice. + After the death of Pope Leo XIII, when the votes of the College of + Cardinals began to increase in his favor, he tried in vain with + supplications and tears to be relieved of so heavy a burden. + Finally he ceded to their persuasions, saying: I accept the cross. + Thus he accepted the crown of the supreme pontificate as a cross, + offering himself to God, with a resigned but stedfast spirit. + + + Placed upon the chair of Peter, he gave up nothing of his former + way of life. He shone especially in humility, simplicity and + poverty, so that he was able to write in his last testament: I was + born in poverty, I lived in poverty, and I wish to die in poverty. + His humility, however, nourished his soul with strength, when it + concerned the glory of God, the liberty of Holy Church, and the + salvation of souls. A man of passionate temperament and of firm + purpose, he ruled the Church firmly as it entered into the + twentieth century, and adorned it with brilliant teachings. He + restored the sacred music to its pristine glory and dignity; he + established Rome as the principal centre for the study of the Holy + Bible; he ordered the reform of the Roman Curia with great wisdom; + he restored the laws concerning the faithful for the instruction of + the catechism; he introduced the custom of more frequent and even + daily reception of the Holy Eucharist, as well as permitting its + reception by children as soon as they reach the age of reason; he + zealously promoted the growth of Catholic action; he provided for + the sound education of clerics and increased the number of + seminaries in their diverse regions; he encouraged every priest in + the practice of the interior life; he brought the laws of the + Church together into one body; he condemned and suppressed those + most pernicious errors known collectively as Modernism; he + suppressed the custom of civil veto at the election of a Supreme + Pontiff. Finally worn out with his labors and overcome with grief + at the European war which had just begun, he went to his heavenly + reward on the twentieth day of August in the year 1914. Renowned + throughout all the world for the fame of his holiness and miracles, + Pope Pius XII, with the approbation of the whole world, numbered + him among the Saints. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } + + - nocturn: 3 + isGospel: false + source: "St. Augustine of Hippo, Tractatus 123 on John (in medio)" + text: + la: >- + Rédditur negatióni trinæ trina conféssio, ne minus amóri lingua + sérviat, quam timóri: et plus vocis elicuísse videátur mors + ímminens, quam vita præsens.

He obtained the Kingly crown from the Bishop of + Rome, and being by command of the same anointed King, he made an + offering of his kingdom to the Apostolic See. With wonderful + devotion and bounty he founded diverse godly houses at Rome, + Jerusalem, and Constantinople, and in Hungary the Archbishopric of + Gran and ten other Sees. Toward the poor he had the same love and + bounty. He greeted them as though they were Christ Himself, and + never sent any one away sorrowing and empty. He spent vast sums in + relieving their poverty, and also often parted among them with + exceeding tenderness even the furniture of his house. Moreover it + was his use to wash the feet of the poor with his own hands, and to + go in the night, alone and unknown, to the hospitals, and to wait + on them that lay there, and show them other deeds of kindness. It + was the reward of these good works that, when the rest of his body + decayed, his right hand remained uncorrupt. + + + He passed almost whole nights in earnest prayer, and when totally + rapt in the thought of heavenly things, he sometimes became beside + himself, and was seen to rise off the ground into the air. In more + than one instance he strangely escaped through the power of prayer + from rebellion, treason, and the onslaughts of mighty foes. He + married Gisela of Bavaria, sister to the holy Emperor Henry, and + begat on her Emeric, whom he trained up in such manners and + godliness, as are shown by his also becoming a Saint. To carry on + the business of his kingdom, he gathered together from all quarters + the most learned and godly men, and took nothing in hand without + their advice. Meanwhile he entreated of God by the most lowly + supplications, offered up in sack-cloth and ashes, that, before he + departed this life, he might see all Hungary Catholic. On account + of his excellent zeal for the spread of the Faith he is called the + Apostle of that nation, and the Bishop of Rome gave to him and to + his successors the right to have a Cross carried before them. + + + He had a burning zeal to honour the Mother of God. He built a very + great Church in her honour, and made her Patroness of Hungary. In + return, the same Virgin received him into heaven, upon the day of + her own Assumption, which the Hungarians, by the example of the + holy King, call "the Great Lady's Day." His hallowed body yielded + the sweetest savour, and reeked with an heavenly liquid, and amid + many and diverse wonders it was removed by command of the Bishop of + Rome into a more noble place, and more honourably buried. Pope + Innocent XI. ordered his Feast to be held upon the 2nd day of + September, on account of the famous victory over the Turks which + was gained upon this day, when the army of Leopold I., Emperor + (elect) of the Romans, and King of Hungary, wrested from them, by + the help of God, the city of Buda. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } diff --git a/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-wenceslaus.yml b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-wenceslaus.yml new file mode 100644 index 0000000..63c10a7 --- /dev/null +++ b/src/data/propers/nocturn-readings/st-wenceslaus.yml @@ -0,0 +1,176 @@ +# Matins Nocturn 2-3 readings for St. Wenceslaus, Duke and Martyr +# (Sep 28).

He had + for his grandmother a most holy woman, named Ludmilla, who + trained him up in godliness. He was a man eminent in all graces, + and one who carefully held his virginity unsullied throughout the + whole course of his life. His mother seized the supreme power by + the foul murder of Ludmilla, and lived foully with her younger + son Boleslaus, and the nobles roused thereby to indignation, and + wearied with her tyranny and wicked government, cast off the + yoke of both of them, and hailed Wenceslaus in the city of Prague + as their King. + + + He ruled his kingdom by his virtues rather than by force. To the + orphaned, the widowed, and the destitute he was very charitable, + so that some whiles in the winter he carried firewood to the + needy on his own shoulders. He helped oftentimes to bury the + poor, he set captives free, and went many times to the prisons + at the dead of night to comfort with money and advice them that + were detained therein. To a Prince of so tender an heart it was + a great grief to be behoven to condemn any to death, however + guilty. For Priests he had a most earnest respect, and with his + own hands sowed the corn and pressed the grapes for the bread + and wine which they were to use for the Sacrifice. He would walk + round the Church by night with bare feet upon the snow and ice, + leaving behind him bloody footprints that warmed the ground. + + + As his Body-guard he had angels. For when Radislaus, Prince of + Gurinna, invaded Bohemia, and Wenceslaus, to save the effusion + of his people's blood, went out to meet him in single combat, + angels were seen serving him with arms, and heard to say to the + adversary: Strike not. Therefore, his enemy was stricken with + terror, fell down in reverence before him, and begged his + forgiveness. When he went to Germany, the Emperor saw two angels + carrying a golden Cross before him as he drew nigh him, and + arose from his throne, embraced him in his arms, created him a + King, and gifted him with the arm of the holy Martyr Vitus. + Nevertheless, his godless brother, at the exhortation of their + mother, bade him to a feast, and when Wenceslaus, with a + foreboding of the death prepared for him, went afterwards into + the Church, and was praying there, together with some + accomplices of his crime, despatched him, running him through + the body with a lance.

Statim namque in + mánibus et pédibus ejus apparere cœpérunt signa clavórum, ipsórum + capítibus in inferióri parte mánuum et superiori pedum + apparéntibus, et eórum acumínibus exsisténtibus ex adverso. + Dextrum quoque latus, quasi lancea transfixum, rubra cicatrice + obductum erat, quod sæpe, sánguinem sacrum effúndens, túnicam et + femoralia respergebat. + + + Postquam ígitur novus homo Franciscus novo et stupéndo miraculo + cláruit, cum singulari privilegio retroactis sæculis non + concesso insignítus appáruit, sacris vidélicet Stigmátibus + decoratus, descéndit de monte secum ferens Crucifixi effigiem, + non in tábulis lapídeis vel ligneis manu figuratam artíficis, sed + in carneis membris descriptam digito Dei vivi. Quóniam + sacraméntum regis seráphicus vir abscóndere bonum esse optime + norat, secreti regalis cónscius, signácula illa sacra pro + víribus occultábat. Verum, quia Dei est ad glóriam suam magna + revelare quæ facit, Dóminus ipse, qui signácula illa secrete + impresserat, miracula quædam aperte per ipsa monstrávit; ut + illórum occúlta et mira vis Stígmatum manifesta patéret + claritáte signórum. Rem admirábilem ac tantopere testatam atque + in pontificiis diplomátibus præcipuis laudibus et favóribus + exáltatam, Benedíctus Papa undecimus anniversaria solemnitate + celebrari vóluit; quam póstea Paulus quintus Pontifex maximus, ut + corda fidelium in Christi crucifixi accenderéntur amórem, ad + universam Ecclésiam propagávit. + en: >- + Francis being indeed a faithful servant and minister of Christ, + about the space of two years before he gave back his spirit to + heaven, withdrew himself into an high mountain apart, even that + mountain which is called Mount Alverno, and began to fast for + forty days to the honour of the Archangel Michael. To think of + the things above gave him sweeter comfort than beforetime he was + wont, and the hot longing for heaven was kindled in him, so that + he began to feel that the gifts from above were poured forth + upon him in such fulness as he had never felt before. The + burning of his desire made his heart rise towards God like the + heart of a seraph, and his tender answering love yearned to be + changed into the likeness of Him Who hath so loved us that He + was content to bear the Cross. And it was so that one morning + early, about the time of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy + Cross, he was praying upon the side of the mountain, and there + appeared unto him as it had been one of the Seraphim, having six + wings, glorious and fiery, flying to him from heaven. It came + therefore very swiftly, and stood in the air, hard by the man of + God. He beheld then the appearance thereof that it was not + winged only, but crucified also. His hands and feet were + stretched forth and nailed to a Cross. Twain of his wings were + lifted up and joined one to the other over his head, and twain + were stretched forth to fly withal, and with twain he wrapped + around his body. When Francis saw it, he was sore amazed, and + his soul was filled with sorrow and gladness, for the eyes of + him that appeared were full of strange love and tenderness, so + that he conceived great rejoicing thereat, but the nailing to + the Cross was so exceedingly dreadful, that as he saw it, a + sword of sorrow pierced his soul. + + + Then He Whom he beheld with his bodily eyes, began to speak + silently unto him in his heart, and he understood that albeit + the deathless Seraphim cannot suffer or faint, this vision was + nevertheless therefore set before him, that he might know that + as a friend of Christ he was to be all changed into the likeness + of Christ Jesus crucified, not by the martyrdom of the body, but + by the fervour of the soul. Then they held together some sweet + converse, as of a man with his friend, and the vision passed + from him, but his heart was kindled inwardly with the fire of + the Seraphim, and his body was outwardly changed into the + likeness of Him Who was crucified, even as wax is softened by + the fire and taketh the impression of the seal. From thenceforth + there were in his hands and feet the marks of the nails. The + heads of the nails were seen in the palms of his hands and on + the insteps of his feet, and the points came out on the backs + of his hands and the soles of his feet. In his right side also + was a long raw wound, as though he had been pierced with a + spear, from which wound his holy blood oftentimes ran and + stained his shirt and breeches. + + + Thereafter Francis was a new creature, famous for a new and + awful sign. The holy marks of the Lord Jesus, whereon living man + for twelve centuries had not been allowed to look, were his + adornment. He came down from the mount bearing in himself the + form of Jesus Crucified, not portrayed upon tables of stone or + wood by the hand of any earthly craftsman, but drawn upon his + flesh by the finger of the living God. The dying Seraph knew + well that it is good to keep close the secret of a king, and + knowing the secret of his King, he strove as far as in him lay + to keep the sacred marks hidden from men. Nevertheless, forasmuch + as it is the will of the Lord God for His Own glory to make + manifest the greatness of His Own works, He openly showed forth + diverse wonders through these wounds which He had Himself made + in secret, so that the hidden and wondrous power of the marks + might become known by the fame of the miracles. The foregoing + marvellous but thoroughly witnessed facts, which were already + spoken of in Papal documents with especial praise and joy, were + made, by the pleasure of Pope Benedict XI, the subject of a + yearly memorial, which was afterwards extended by Paul V. to the + whole Church, in the hope of fanning in the hearts of the + faithful the love of Christ Crucified. + status: { la: verified, en: verified } diff --git a/tests/calendar/september-sanctoral.test.ts b/tests/calendar/september-sanctoral.test.ts index 0a09ba0..fe07895 100644 --- a/tests/calendar/september-sanctoral.test.ts +++ b/tests/calendar/september-sanctoral.test.ts @@ -27,15 +27,22 @@ describe('September sanctoral pull (first pass)', () => { expect(getDayCollect(day).status.en).toBe('verified'); }); - it("dates within the Nativity's own octave still exclude the real secondary saints the source names (Ss.
