14 of November's 16 SanctiM-track saints authored, including All Saints of the Benedictine Order -- a genuinely Monastic-only feast with both rich content and (unusually for this pass) an available English translation. St. Martin I is another off-date case like St. Paul the Hermit, and two more saints (St. Emilian, St. Odo) turn out Monastic-only-but-Common-only, extending October's wrinkle.

Mennas Ægýptius, christiánus miles, in persecutióne Diocletiáni et Maximiáni

imperatórum, cum pœniténtiæ causa in solitúdinem secessísset, natáli die
|

imperatórum, quo pópulus célebri spectáculo tenebátur, in theátrum prosíliens,
|

líbera voce Gentílium superstitiónem insectabátur. Quam ob rem comprehénsus, et,
|

Pyrrho prǽside, in metrópoli Cottiénsium Phrýgiæ vinctus, loris crudéliter cœditur.

Mennas was a Christian Egyptian soldier who had withdrawn himself into a desert place
|
||||
to do penance, but one day, during the persecution under the Emperors Diocletian and
|
||||
Maximian, upon the said Emperors' birthday, when the people were gathered together at
|
||||
a great show, stood forth in the theatre, and reviled with a loud voice the idolatries
|
||||
of the Gentiles. Thereupon he was arrested, and being bound at Cotyasus, the chief city
|
||||
of Phrygia, under the authority of the President Pyrrhus, was first savagely lashed
|
||||
with thongs, then racked, then scarified with fire applied to his naked body, then had
|
||||
his wounds lacerated by rubbing with hair-cloth, then dragged through thorns and iron
|
||||
spikes with hands and feet tied, then lashed again with whips loaded with lead, and
|
||||
lastly slain with the sword, and thrown into a fire. The Christians saved his body
|
||||
thence and buried it, and it hath in after times been carried to Constantinople.
