Recombine Ember September Friday's split Matins homily into one reading

Lectio1-3 in ember-september-friday.yml were one continuous, unbroken
Gregory homily on Luke 7:36-50, split only to fill the fixed 3-lesson
Nocturn slot count -- the "source doesn't genuinely split" case this
store's own established default (post-pentecost-15.yml) already
recombines elsewhere. User caught this live on /2026-09-18/matins
showing 3 identically-labeled lessons in a row. Keeps Lectio1's own
responsory per the "first one, when several collapse" convention.

# Lectio1's Gospel citation (Luke 7:36-50) is a bare incipit with no full
# pericope text given, so only the homily portion is authored, same
# convention as ember-september-wednesday.yml. Kept as 3 separate
# readings, each with its own genuinely distinct proper responsory — see
# that file's own doc comment for why this departs from the usual
# combine-into-one default.

# Recombined into one reading 2026-09-04 (previously kept as 3 separate
# readings): the user flagged this on the live app (`/2026-09-18/matins`,
# Ember Friday as a commemoration) as reading oddly — Gregory's Homily 33
# split into 3 slots. Lectio1-3 are one continuous, unbroken homily on the
# same pericope, split only to fill the fixed 3-lesson Nocturn slot count
# — exactly the "source doesn't genuinely split" case this store's own
# established default (see post-pentecost-15.yml's own doc comment)
# recombines. The original per-lesson "genuinely distinct proper
# responsory" rationale for keeping this split (also present, unfixed so
# far, in ember-september-wednesday.yml/ember-september-saturday.yml/
# ember-advent-saturday.yml/ember-advent-wednesday.yml/
# ember-advent-friday.yml) doesn't hold up against that established
# default: post-pentecost-15.yml's own Nocturn 2 already collapses 4
# lessons with their own distinct responsories into one reading, keeping
# only the first's. Responsory here is Lectio1's own (Responsory1 =
# @Tempora/093-0:Responsory4) per that same "the first one, when several
# collapse" convention; Lectio2/3's own distinct responsories (Responsory2
# = @Tempora/093-0:Responsory5, Responsory3 = @Tempora/093-0:Responsory6)
# are dropped, same as every other collapsed-reading case in this store.

Of what is the Pharisee that was exalted by self-righteousness a type, but of the Jewish people? And of

Gentiles? She brought an alabaster box of ointment, and stood at His feet behind Him weeping, and began to
wash His Feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed His Feet, and anointed
them with the ointment. Of us, therefore, even of us, was that woman a type, if after our sins we turn unto

a sweet savour of Christ.

If therefore we do good works, whereby we gain for the Church the savour of good reputation, what do we
but pour ointment upon the body of the Lord? But the woman stood at the Feet of Jesus, behind Him we stood
opposite to the Feet of the Lord, what time we were in sin, and went contrary unto His ways. But when we
turn again, and truly repent us of our sins, we stand behind His Feet, for we follow His footsteps against
Whom we once contended. The woman washed His Feet with her tears and we do in very deed the same when we
show the tenderness of sympathy to any of His humbler members, when we feel with His Saints in their
tribulations, when we make their woes our own.
