Add 4 more fixed Lord's/BVM feasts, and fix Our Lady of the Snows' Nocturn 3

Finding of the Holy Cross (May 3), the Transfiguration (Aug 6), the
Exaltation of the Holy Cross (Sep 14), and Dedication of the Basilica of
the Most Holy Savior (Nov 9, the Lateran) were all excluded under the
same stale "fixed feast of the Lord, not modeled" note that turned out
wrong for Our Lady of the Snows. All four have real, complete content in
the reference engine. Presentation of the BVM (Nov 21) was excluded
under the equivalent "fixed BVM feast" note and is added the same way.

- finding-of-the-holy-cross: fully proprium, own collect/antiphon/Matins
  throughout; now correctly outranks
  ss-alexander-eventius-theodulus-and-juvenal, matching what that
  saint's own file already documented as the live reality.
- transfiguration: same proprium shape. Its subordinate saints (Ss.
  Xystus/Felicissimus/Agapitus) stay excluded -- blocked by the real,
  separate octave/subordination-rendering gap, not by an unmodeled
  Transfiguration.
- exaltation-of-the-holy-cross: reuses the Finding of the Holy Cross's
  content wholesale (ex Sancti/05-03) -- collect/antiphon via a cross-id
  `propers` pointer, Matins nocturn-readings duplicated (no cross-id
  lookup exists for that mechanism).
- dedication-of-the-basilica-of-the-most-holy-savior: reuses the
  existing Common-of-a-Dedication (collect-c8, benedictus-antiphon-
  common-of-a-dedication), real unique Nocturn 2 vita of her own. Her
  secondary, St. Theodore, stays excluded for the same
  octave/subordination reason as above.
- presentation-of-the-bvm: real unique collect of her own; her
  Benedictus antiphon is a substituted Common reference
  (truncate-and-add-alleluia edit specific to this feast), authored as
  her own file.

Also: our-lady-of-the-snows.yml was missing its own Nocturn 3 (she
defers to Commune/C11's own Gospel-incipit-plus-Bede-homily, same as
Presentation of the BVM) -- added.

Test updates (not regressions): three tests had fixed proof dates
colliding with the newly-added feasts, updated to reflect the new,
correct behavior. npm test (365 tests) and tsc --noEmit both pass.

+### Four more "not modeled" fixed Lord's/BVM feasts added (2026-08)
+
+Per direct instruction ("import the sanctoral content that exists" — this app isn't
+reconstructing any one calendar, and content beyond what the user's own final calendar keeps is
+still worth having so others can build their own): swept every remaining "fixed Lord's/BVM
+feast, not modeled" exclusion in `sanctoral-calendar.yml` the same way Our Lady of the Snows was
+just fixed, rather than treating that as a one-off. All four turned out to have real, complete
+source content too:
+
+- **Finding of the Holy Cross** (May 3, Duplex II Classis) — her `[Rule]` is `proprium`: fully
+  own text throughout (collect, antiphon, Nocturn 2/3). Now wins outright over
+  `ss-alexander-eventius-theodulus-and-juvenal`, exactly matching what that saint's own file
+  already documented as the live-verified reality ("loses the day to the Finding of the Holy
+  Cross... this isn't just an artifact of the specific year checked") — her file had simply
+  never been given a real competitor to lose to until now.
+- **The Transfiguration of Our Lord** (Aug 6, Duplex II Classis) — same `proprium` shape, fully
+  own text throughout. Its three subordinate saints (Ss. Xystus/Felicissimus/Agapitus) are
+  still excluded — no longer because the Transfiguration itself is unmodeled, but because of
+  the same real, separate octave/subordination-rendering gap that already blocks St. Clare et
+  al.
+- **The Exaltation of the Holy Cross** (Sep 14, Duplex Majus) — her `[Rule]` is
+  `ex Sancti/05-03`: reuses the Finding of the Holy Cross's content wholesale. Collect/antiphon
+  reuse via a cross-id `propers` pointer (`propers: finding-of-the-holy-cross`, same pattern as
+  `st-michael.yml`'s `apparition-of-st-michael`) rather than duplicate files; the Matins
+  nocturn-readings mechanism has no equivalent cross-id lookup (`getNocturnReadings` keys
+  strictly off the saint's own id), so `exaltation-of-the-holy-cross.yml` duplicates
+  `finding-of-the-holy-cross.yml`'s reading content instead.
+- **Dedication of the Basilica of the Most Holy Savior** (Nov 9, i.e. the Lateran, Duplex II
+  Classis) — her `[Rule]` is `ex C8` (Common of the Dedication of a Church, already modeled —
+  `collect-c8.yml`/`benedictus-antiphon-common-of-a-dedication.yml` already existed from
+  `dedication-of-the-basilicas-of-ss-peter-and-paul.yml`, reused directly here, not duplicated),
+  but real unique `Lectio1-6(+6a)` vita content of her own. Her secondary, St. Theodore, is
+  still excluded — same real octave/subordination gap as the Transfiguration's secondaries
+  above (her own embedded `[Commemoratio 5]` block already carries his real collect too, ready
+  to use once that mechanism exists).
+- **The Presentation of the BVM** (Nov 21, Duplex Majus, itself a Monastic-1617-only addition)
+  — has a real, unique `[Oratio]` of her own (unlike Our Lady of the Snows), but her
+  `[Ant 1]` is a *substituted* Common reference (`@Commune/C10:Ant 2_`, with a
+  feast-specific `s/Christo:.*/Christo, allelúja./` truncation applied and computed by hand,
+  not shared verbatim by any other saint) — authored as her own file via `propers`, same
+  "substitution makes shared-formula text effectively proper" reasoning as
+  `st-lucy-collect.yml`.
+
+**Correction to Our Lady of the Snows found during this same sweep**: her own file had no
+Lectio7-9 either, and — like the Presentation of the BVM — this means she defers to
+Commune/C11's own Nocturn 3 (a bare Gospel incipit, Luke 11:27-28, plus the Venerable Bede's
+homily). Missed in the first pass (only her Nocturn 2 vita was authored); added now, identical
+content to `presentation-of-the-bvm.yml`'s own Nocturn 3, duplicated for the same
+no-cross-id-lookup reason as Exaltation/Finding of the Holy Cross above.
+
+**One real bug caught before committing**: Finding of the Holy Cross's own collect/antiphon
+files were never actually created in the first draft (only Exaltation's cross-id pointer to
+them was written) — both resolved `missing` on live verification. Caught by re-checking every
+new feast end-to-end via direct resolution before committing, not assumed correct from the
+file list alone; fixed immediately, re-verified.
+
+**Test updates, not regressions**: three tests had fixed proof dates that happen to collide
+with the newly-added feasts, all updated to reflect the new, correct behavior rather than the
+old absence: `tests/calendar/may-sanctoral.test.ts` (Finding of the Holy Cross now correctly
+outranks its stub competitor instead of winning by the stub's own default), and
+`tests/calendar/day-label.test.ts` (two dates — Nov 9 and 1943-11-21 — now show the new saint's
+name instead of a ferial fallback label, the latter because Duplex Majus already meets this
+app's own pre-existing privileged-Sunday rank threshold in `commemorations.ts`, not new
+behavior). `npm test` (365 tests) and `tsc --noEmit` both pass.

+        nostri Jesu Christi, qui altáre, hóstia et sacérdos noster est, figúram exprímeret.
+
+
+        Sed, ubi Constantínus imperátor per baptísmi sacraméntum sanitátem salutémque
+        consecútus est, tum primum lege ab eo lata concéssum est toto orbe terrárum,
+        Christiáni ut ecclésias ædificárent; quos ille, non solum edícto, sed étiam exémplo
+        ad sacram ædificatiónem est cohortátus. Nam, et in suo Lateranénsi palátio ecclésiam
+        Salvatóri dedicávit, et ei continéntem basílicam nómine sancti Joánnis Baptístæ
+        cóndidit, eo loco quo ipse, baptizátus a sancto Silvéstro, ab infidelitátis lepra
+        mundátus est; quam idem Póntifex consecrávit quinto idus novémbris. Cujus
+        consecratiónis memória celebrátur hodiérno die, quo primum Romæ públice ecclésia
+        consecráta est, et imágo Salvatóris, in paríete depícta, pópulo Románo appáruit.

+        decrévit ut deínceps nisi ex lápide altária non ædificaréntur; tamen basílicæ
+        Lateranénsis altáre fuit e ligno eréctum. Quod mirum non est; nam, cum a sancto

+        non possent, quocúmque eos necéssitas compulísset, sive in cryptas, sive in

+        The Rites whereof the Church of Rome maketh use for the hallowing of Churches and
+        Altars were first instituted by the blessed Pope Sylvester. From the very time of the
+        Apostles there had been places set apart for God, where assemblies took place upon
+        the first day of every week, and where the Christians were used to pray, to hear the
+        word of God, and to receive the Eucharist, which places were by some called
+        Oratories and by others Churches. But these places were not dedicated with so solemn
+        a form, nor did they set up therein an Altar for a pillar, and pour chrism thereon,
+        for a figure of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who is Himself our Altar, our Victim, and our
+        Priest.
+
+
+        But when the Emperor Constantine had by the Sacrament of Baptism received health
+        both of body and soul, then first in a law by him published was it allowed to the
+        Christians throughout the whole world to build Churches, to the which holy building
+        he exhorted them by his example as well as by his decree. He dedicated in his own
+        Lateran Palace a Church to the Saviour, and built hard by it a Cathedral in the name
+        of St. John the Baptist, upon the place where he had been baptized by holy Sylvester
+        and cleansed from his leprosy. This Cathedral was hallowed by the said Pope upon the
+        9th day of November. It is this consecration, the memory whereof is still celebrated
+        upon this day, the first whereon the public consecration of a Church ever took place
+        in Rome, and the image of the Saviour was seen by the Roman people painted upon the
+        wall.
+
+
+        The Blessed Sylvester afterwards decreed, when he was consecrating the Altar of the
+        Prince of the Apostles, that Altars were thenceforward to be made of stone only, but
+        notwithstanding this the Lateran Cathedral hath the altar made of wood. This is not
+        surprising. From St. Peter to Sylvester the Popes had not been able, by reason of
+        persecutions, to abide fixedly in one place, and they celebrated the Holy Liturgy in
+        cellars, in burying-places, in the houses of godly persons, or wherever need drove
+        them, upon a wooden altar made like an empty box. When peace was given to the Church,
+        holy Sylvester took this box, and to do honour to the Prince of the Apostles, who is
+        said to have offered sacrifice thereon, and to the other Popes who thereon had been
+        used to execute the mystery even unto that time, set it in the first Church, even the
+        Lateran, and ordained that no one but the Bishop of Rome should celebrate the Liturgy
+        thereon for all time coming.
+
+
+        The original Lateran Cathedral, cast down and destroyed by fires, pillage, and
+        earthquakes, and renewed by the constant care of the Popes, was at last rebuilt
+        afresh, and solemnly consecrated by Pope Benedict XIII, a Friar Preacher, upon the
+        28th day of April, in the year 1726, the memory of which Festival he ordained to be
+        kept upon this day. In the year 1884 Leo XIII took in hand a work which had received
+        the sanction of his predecessor Pius IX. The great sanctuary, the walls of which were
+        giving way with age, was lengthened and widened, a task of immense labour. The
+        ancient mosaic had been renewed previously in several places; it was now restored
+        according to the original design, and transferred to the new apse, the embellishment
+        of which was carried out with great magnificence. The transept was redecorated, and
+        its ceiling and woodwork repaired. A sacristy, a residence for the canons, and a
+        portico connecting with the baptistery of Constantine, were added to the existing
+        buildings.

+        Zacchaeus was little of stature, that is, he was not raised aloft among men by
+        nobility of birth, and, like the most of the world, he possessed few merits. When he
+        heard that the Lord and Saviour, Who had come unto His Own, and Whom His Own had not
+        received, was coming, he desired to see Him. But the sight of Jesus is not easy; to
+        any on the earth it is impossible. And since Zacchaeus had neither the Prophets, nor
+        yet the Law, as a gracious help to his nature, he climbed up into a sycamore tree,
+        raising his feet above the vanity of the Jews, and straightening the crooked
+        branches of his former life, and therefore he received Jesus to lodge within his
+        house.
+
+
+        He did well to climb up into a tree, that a good tree might bring forth good fruits,
+        and that the slip of the wild olive, grafted, contrary to nature, into the good
+        olive, might bring forth the fruits of the law. For the root is holy, however
+        unprofitable the branches. Their barren beauty hath now been overshadowed by the
+        belief of the Gentiles in the Resurrection, as by a material upgrowth. Zacchaeus,
+        then, was in the sycamore tree, and the blind man by the way-side. For the one, Jesus
+        stood waiting to show mercy, and asked him before He healed him, what he would that
+        He should do for him; being unbidden of the other, He bade Himself to be his Guest,
+        knowing how rich was the reward of receiving Him. Nevertheless, albeit He had heard
+        no words of invitation, yet had He seen how his heart went.
+
+
+        But lest we should seem haughtily to pass by the poor blind man, and to hurry on to
+        the rich one, let us stand waiting for him, as the Lord stood and waited; let us ask
+        of him, as Christ asked of him. Let us ask, because we are ignorant; Christ asked,
+        because He knew. Let us ask, that we may know whence he received his cure; Christ
+        asked, that all of us may know from one example where through we are to earn a sight
+        of the Lord. Christ asked, that we might believe that none, save they that confess
+        Him, can be saved.

+        After that famous victory which the Emperor Constantine gained over Maxentius, on
+        the eve of which the banner of the Cross of the Lord had been given to him from
+        heaven, Helen, the mother of Constantine, being warned in a dream, came to Jerusalem,
+        to seek for the Cross. There it was her care to cause to be overthrown the marble
+        statue of Venus, which had stood on Calvary for about one hundred and eighty years,
+        and which had originally been put there to desecrate and destroy the memorial of the
+        sufferings of the Lord Christ. The like work Helen did at Bethlehem, by cleansing
+        from an image of Adonis the stable where the Saviour was born, and from an idol of
+        Jupiter, the place where He had arisen from the dead.
+
+
+        Then she had thus cleansed the place where the Cross had stood, Helen caused deep
+        excavations to be made, which resulted in the discovery of three crosses, and, apart
+        from them, the writing which had been nailed on that of the Lord. But which of the
+        crosses had been His was unknown, and was only manifested by a miracle. Macarius,
+        Bishop of Jerusalem, after offering solemn prayers to God, touched with each of the
+        three a woman who was afflicted with a grievous disease. The two first had no effect,
+        but at the touch of the third she was immediately healed.
+
+
+        Helen, after she had found the life-giving Cross, built over the site of the Passion
+        a Church of extraordinary splendour, wherein she deposited part of the Cross, shut
+        up in a silver case. Another part which she gave to her son, Constantine, was laid
+        up in the Church of the Holy Cross of Jerusalem, which he built at Rome on the site
+        of the Sessorian Palace. She also gave to her son the nails with which the Most Holy
+        Body of Jesus Christ had been pierced. Constantine established a law abolishing the
+        punishment of crucifixion for all time coming and thenceforth what had hitherto been
+        a hissing and a curse among men, began to be esteemed worshipful and glorious.

+        Nicodemus was one of them which believed in the Name of Jesus, when they saw the
+        signs and wonders which He did. So hath John given us to understand a few words
+        before our text: "Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, in the feast-day,
+        many believed in His Name." And wherefore did they believe in His Name John telleth
+        us immediately: "When they saw the miracles which He did." And now, what saith he
+        touching Nicodemus? "There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of
+        the Jews. The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto Him Rabbi, we know that Thou
+        art a Teacher come from God." Nicodemus therefore believed in His Name. And why did
+        he believe He saith "For no man can do these miracles that Thou doest, except God be
+        with him."
+
+
+        Lo, then, Nicodemus was one of the many which had believed in His Name, let us seek
+        to find in Nicodemus why "Jesus did not commit Himself unto them." Jesus answered
+        and said unto him "Amen, Amen, I say unto thee except a man be born again, he cannot
+        see the kingdom of God." Jesus therefore committeth Himself unto such as be born
+        again. Behold, Nicodemus and they that were with him believed in Jesus, but Jesus did
+        not commit Himself unto them. Just so are all Catechumens they believe in the Name of
+        Christ, but Jesus hath not yet committed Himself unto them. Now I trust ye will be
+        good enough to pay attention, and understand what I am going to say. If ye ask of a
+        Catechumen "Dost thou believe in Christ" he saith "I believe," and he signeth himself
+        with the sign of the Cross. The Cross of his Lord is marked upon his forehead, and he
+        is not ashamed of it. Behold, he believeth in the Name of Christ. But let us ask him
+        "Dost thou eat the flesh of the Son of Man" and he knoweth not what we mean, for
+        Jesus hath not yet committed Himself unto him.

+        It is plain that this was a woman of great earnestness and faith. The Scribes and
+        Pharisees were at once tempting and blaspheming the Lord, but this woman so clearly
+        grasped His Incarnation, and so bravely confessed the same, that she confounded both
+        the lies of the great men who were present, and the faithlessness of the heretics who
+        were yet to come. Even as the Jews then, blaspheming the works of the Holy Ghost,
+        denied the very Son of God Who is of one substance with the Father, so afterwards did
+        the heretics, by denying that Mary always a Virgin did, under the operation of the
+        Holy Ghost, supply flesh to the Only begotten One of God, when He was about being
+        born in an human Body, even so, I say, did the heretics deny that the Son of Man
+        should be called a true Son, Who is of one substance with His Mother.
+
+
+        If we shall say that the Flesh, Wherewith the Son of God was born in the flesh, was
+        something outside of the flesh of the Virgin His Mother, without reason should we
+        bless the womb that bore Him, and the paps which He hath sucked. But the Apostle
+        saith: "God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law", and they are
+        not to be listened to who read this passage: "Born of a woman, made under the law."
+        He was made of a woman, for He was conceived in a virgin's womb, and took His Flesh,
+        not from nothing, not from elsewhere, but from the flesh of His Mother. Otherwise,
+        and if He had not been sprung of a woman, He could not with truth be called the Son
+        of man. Let us therefore, denying the doctrine of Eutyches, lift up our voice, along
+        with the Universal Church, whereof that woman was a figure, let us lift up our heart
+        as well as our voice from the company, and say unto the Saviour: Blessed is the womb
+        that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. Blessed Mother, of whom one hath
+        said thou art His Mother, Who reigns over earth and over heaven for ever.
+
+
+        Yea, rather, blessed are they that hear the Word of God and keep it. How nobly doth
+        the Saviour say "Yea" to the woman's blessing, declaring also that not only is she
+        blessed who was meet to give bodily birth to the Word of God, but that all they who
+        spiritually conceive the same Word by the hearing of faith, and, by keeping it
+        through good works, bring it forth and, as it were, carefully nurse it, in their own
+        hearts, and in the hearts of their neighbours, are also blessed. Yea, and that the
+        very Mother of God herself was blessed in being for a while the handmaid of the Word
+        of God made Flesh, but that she was much more blessed in this, that through her love
+        she keepeth Him for ever.

+        Joachim took to wife that most eminent and praiseworthy woman, Anne. And even as the
+        ancient Hannah, being stricken with barrenness, by prayer and promise became the
+        mother of Samuel, so likewise this woman also through prayer and promise received
+        from God the Mother of God, that in fruitfulness she might not be behind any of the
+        famous matrons. And thus grace (for such is the signification of the name of Anne)
+        is mother of the Lady (for such is the signification of the name of Mary.) And
+        indeed she became the Lady of every creature, since she hath been mother of the
+        Creator. She first saw the light in Joachim's house, hard by the Pool of Bethesda, at
+        Jerusalem, and was carried to the Temple. There planted in the Lord, the dew of His
+        Spirit made her to flourish in the courts of her God, and like a green olive she
+        became a tree, so that all the doves of grace came and lodged in her branches. And so
+        she raised her mind utterly above the lust of life and the lust of the flesh, and
+        kept her soul virgin in her virgin body, as became her that was to receive God into
+        her womb.
+
+
+        Such was Mary that her single life offereth an example to all. If then the doer
+        displease us not, let us applaud the deed; if any other woman seek like reward, let
+        her follow after like works. In the one Virgin how many glorious examples do shine
+        forth. Her's was the hidden treasure of modesty, her's the high standard of faith,
+        her's the self-sacrifice of earnestness, her's to be the pattern of maidenhood at
+        home, of kinswomanhood in ministry, of motherhood in the Temple. O to how many
+        virgins hath she been helpful, how many hath she taken in her arms and presented unto
+        the Lord, saying Here is one who, (like me,) hath kept stainlessly clean the wedding
+        -chamber, the marriage -bed of my Son!
+
+
+        Why should I go on to speak of the scantiness of her eating, or of the multiplicity
+        of her work? how her labour seemed above human capacity, and her refreshment
+        insufficient for human strength, her toil never missing a moment, her fasting taking
+        two days together. And when she was fain to eat, she took not dainties, but
+        whatsoever food came first to hand that would keep body and soul together. She would
+        not sleep till need was, and even then, while her body rested, her soul watched, for
+        she often talked in her sleep, either repeating things that she had read, or going on
+        with what she was doing before sleep interrupted her, or rehearsing things executed,
+        or talking of things projected.

+        The Lord taketh chosen witnesses, and in their presence, revealeth His glory. That
+        form of body which He had in common with other men, He so transfigured with light,
+        that His Face did shine as the sun, and His raiment became exceeding white as snow.
+        Of this metamorphosis the chief work was to remove from the hearts of the disciples
+        the stumbling at the Cross. Before their eyes was unveiled the splendour of His
+        hidden majesty, that the lowliness of His freely-chosen suffering might not confound
+        their faith. But none the less was there here laid by the Providence of God a solid
+        foundation for the hope of the Holy Church, whereby the whole body of Christ should
+        know with what a change it is yet to be honoured. The members of that body whose Head
+        hath already been transfigured in light may promise themselves a share in His glory.
+
+
+        For the strengthening the Apostles and bringing them forward into all knowledge,
+        there appeared unto them Moses and Elias that is, the Law and the Prophets talking
+        with Him. Before five witnesses did His glorification take place, as though to
+        fulfill that which is written: At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of
+        three witnesses, shall the matter be established. What can be more certain, what can
+        be better attested than this matter, which is proclaimed by the trumpets of both the
+        Old and the New Testaments, and concerning which the witness of ancient testimony
+        uniteth with the teaching of the Gospel? The pages of either Covenant strengthen one
+        another, and the brightness of open glory maketh manifest and distinct Him Whom the
+        former prophecies had promised under the veil of mysteries.
+
+
+        The unveiling of such mysteries roused the mind of the Apostle Peter to an outburst
+        of longing for the things eternal, which despised and disdained the things worldly
+        and earthly overflowing with gladness at the vision, he yearned to dwell with Jesus
+        there, where the revelation of His glory had rejoiced him. And so he said Master, it
+        is good for us to be here if Thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles, one for
+        thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. To this proposal the Lord answered
+        nothing, this signifying, that what Peter wished was not wrong, but out of place,
+        since the world could not be saved but by the death of Christ. And the Lord's example
+        was to call the faith of believers to this, that albeit we are behoven to have no
+        doubts concerning the promise of eternal blessedness, yet we are to understand that,
+        amid the trials of this life, we are to seek for endurance before glory.

+        Tu vero Matthǽi philosophíam consídera, qui non celávit nómina eórum qui præpósiti
+        fúerant. Quod et Joánnes sǽpius facit, cum exímias Petri laudes veríssime ac
+        diligentíssime descríbat. Nullum enim in hoc Apostolórum consórtio livor aut inánis
+        glória locum habébat. Primos ígitur Apostolórum seórsum assúmpsit. Quam ob rem eos
+        solos accépit? Quia excellentióres céteris vidélicet erant. Cur autem non íllico, sed
+        post sex dies hoc fecit? Ne céteri scílicet discípuli seu hómines moveréntur; qua de

+        Since the Lord had spoken much concerning dangers, much concerning His Own
+        sufferings, much concerning death, and the killing of His disciples, and had laid
+        upon them many hard and grievous things, and since all these were in this present
+        life, and already hanging over them, whereas the good things were matter for hope and
+        waiting as, for example, that whosoever should lose his life for His sake should find
+        it, for that the Son of Man should come in the glory of His Father, and reward every
+        man according to his works. Therefore, to assure them by their own eyes, and show
+        them what the glory is wherein He will come, He manifested and unveiled it to them,
+        as far as in this life they were able to grasp it, lest they and especially Peter
+        should grieve over their own deaths, or the death of their Lord.
+
+
+        Behold what He doth, when He treateth of heaven and hell. Where He saith Whosoever
+        will save his life shall lose it, and whosoever will lose his life for My sake shall
+        find it. And again He shall reward every man according to his works in these words He
+        pointeth at heaven and hell. But although He speaketh concerning both, He giveth a
+        glimpse of heaven only and not of hell. To see hell would have profited the brutish
+        and stupid, but His disciples were upright and clear-sighted, and therefore for them
+        it was enough to be strengthened by the better things. This was what suited Him the
+        best. Yet He left not the other altogether undone. Sometimes He set the horrors of
+        hell, as it were, before the eyes, as for instance in the parable of the rich man and
+        Lazarus, and that of him who was fain to wring the hundred pence from his
+        fellow-servant.
+
+
+        But mark well Matthew's good will, in not concealing the names of those who were
+        preferred. John also likewise often recordeth the special praises of Peter with great
+        truthfulness and care. For in this companionship of the Apostles, there was no envy,
+        nor did vainglory find place. It was therefore the leaders of the Apostles whom
+        Christ took apart from the others. And wherefore did he take these only? Because
+        there were evidently superior to the rest. And why did he not do this straightway,
+        and not until after six days? Evidently to spare the natural feelings of the other
+        disciples; and for the same reason Christ did not for six days announce who were to
+        go up.
