Author Common-of-a-Confessor-Doctor and Common-of-an-Apostle Lauds/Vespers bundles

common-of-a-confessor-doctor (4 saints) is another "same content,
different id" case: live-verified votive=C4a byte-identical to plain
votive=C4 (Common-of-a-Confessor-Bishop), so duplicated verbatim rather
than authored fresh, matching the already-existing matins-hymn-common-
of-a-confessor-doctor.yml precedent.

common-of-an-apostle (3 saints/feasts) is genuinely distinct: chapter
Eph 2:19-20, hymn "Exsúltet cælum láudibus" (byte-identical Lauds/
Vespers), shared versicle "Annuntiavérunt ópera Dei." Also duplicated
under the separate common-of-apostles (plural) id used by the Octave of
Ss. Peter and Paul.

Proofs: St. John Damascene (own day) + St. Robert Bellarmine (First
Vespers) for Confessor-Doctor; Commemoration of St. Paul (own day) + the
Beheading of St. John the Baptist (First Vespers) for Apostle.

+    Now let the earth with joy resound,
+
+    And heaven the chant re-echo round;
+
+    Nor heaven nor earth too high can raise
+
+    The great Apostles' glorious praise.
+
+
+    O ye who, throned in glory dread,
+
+    Shall judge the living and the dead,
+
+    Lights of the world forevermore!
+
+    To you the suppliant prayer we pour.
+
+
+    Ye close the sacred gates on high;
+
+    At your command apart they fly:
+
+    Oh! loose for us the guilty chain
+
+    We strive to break, and strive in vain.
+
+
+    Sickness and health your voice obey;
+
+    At your command they go or stay:
+
+    From sin's disease our souls restore;
+
+    In good confirm us more and more.
+
+
+    So when the world is at its end,
+
+    And Christ to judgement shall descend,
+
+    May we be called those joys to see
+
+    Prepared from all eternity.
+
+
+    Praise to the Father, with the Son,
+
+    And Holy Spirit, Three in One;
+
+    As ever was in ages past,
+
+    And so shall be while ages last. Amen.
