Corrects the previous conclusion (that this id had no clean sourceable date at all). The reference engine has a dedicated proper for this Sunday, Tempora/Nat1-0, distinct from the individual octave-day saints' own pages -- most years the Sunday loses outright to a Duplex-II-classis octave saint (St. Stephen/St. John/Holy Innocents) and only earns a bare commemoration, which is what the earlier search kept finding, but 2029-12-30 is a year where the Sunday wins outright with no commemoration at all, so that's the date pulled from. All 52 temporal ids (54 counting marian-saturday/christ-the-king) now have an authored Benedictus antiphon, closing out the temporal half of the "every sanctoral and temporal entry needs its antiphons" task for real.

**`christmas-octave-sunday` correction**: originally left unauthored

here, on the theory that every date this id can resolve to collides with

a specific octave-day saint. Wrong — the reference engine has its own
|

dedicated proper for this Sunday specifically, `Tempora/Nat1-0`
|
||||
(`web/www/horas/Latin/Tempora/Nat1-0.txt` in the reference repo, and its
|
||||
Monastic counterpart under `TemporaM/`), distinct from the individual
|
||||
per-weekday octave pages (`Nat02`..`Nat09` = the ferias, keyed by day
|
||||
offset from Christmas). Most years the Sunday does lose outright to a
|
||||
Duplex-II-classis octave saint (St. Stephen/St. John/Holy Innocents,
|
||||
whichever Dec 26–28 lands on) and only gets a bare commemoration — that's
|
||||
what the earlier searches kept finding — but 2029-12-30 is a clean year
|
||||
where the Sunday itself wins outright (`Dominica Infra Octavam
|
||||
Nativitatis ~ Semiduplex Dominica minor`, no commemoration line at all),

so that's the date the content was pulled from. Benedictus antiphon:
