Own real Oratio and Nocturn 2-3 content (Duplex majus). This was the only real gap left in December -- the rest of the month was already complete from the earlier pre-1955 sanctoral pull. No test collisions: Dec 3 was genuinely open. This closes out the full-year sanctoral sweep (January-December). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Francíscus, in Xavério diœcésis Pampelonénsis nobílibus

paréntibus natus, Parísiis sancto Ignátio sese cómitem et

discípulum junxit. Ipso magistro eo brevi devénit, ut in

Multa centéna hóminum mília ad Christum in Indiis convértit;

|

Et cum tam magna pro Deo ágeret, ea erat humilitáte, ut

Francis was of noble family, and was born in the castle of
|
||||
Xavier, in the diocese of Pampeluna, (in the year of our Lord
|
||||
1506.) He was a companion of St. Ignatius at Paris, and one
|
||||
of his earliest disciples. Under his teaching, he learnt to
|
||||
become so wrapt in the contemplation of divine things, that
|
||||
he was sometimes lifted in ecstasy off the ground, which
|
||||
happened to him several times when he was saying Mass in
|
||||
public before large congregations. He earned these
|
||||
refreshments of the soul by the sharpest punishment of the
|
||||
body. He gave up the use not only of meat and wine, but also
|
||||
of wheaten bread; he lived on the vilest food, and ate only
|
||||
once every two or three days. He used an iron scourge till
|
||||
his blood ran freely; he shortened the hours of his rest, and
|
||||
lay only on the ground.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The hardness and holiness of his life had made him meet to be
|
||||
called to be an Apostle, and when John III, King of Portugal,
|
||||
asked Pope Paul III to send to the Indies some members of the
|
||||
then new Society of Jesus, the Pontiff, by the advice of St.
|
||||
Ignatius, sent Francis to enter on that vast field of labour
|
||||
with the powers of Apostolic Nuncio. He arrived (in India on
|
||||
the 6th day of May, in the year 1542.) When he began his
|
||||
work, it seemed as though God Himself taught him the many and
|
||||
difficult languages of the natives. It even happened that
|
||||
when he preached in one language to a mixed congregation of
|
||||
different nationalities, each one heard him in his own
|
||||
tongue wherein he was born. He travelled over countless
|
||||
districts, always walking, and often bare-footed. He
|
||||
introduced the faith into Japan, and six other countries. In
|
||||
India he turned many hundred thousands to Christ, and
|
||||
regenerated many chiefs and kings in the holy font. And
|
||||
notwithstanding that he was doing all these great things for
|
||||
God's service, so deep was his lowliness that when he wrote
|
||||
to St. Ignatius, the General of the Society, he did so on his
|
||||
knees.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
God was pleased to support his zeal for spreading the Gospel
|
||||
with many and great miracles. He gave sight to a blind man.
|
||||
On one occasion the supply of fresh water failed when he was
|
||||
at sea, and five hundred sailors were in danger of perishing
|
||||
by thirst, but the servant of God, by the sign of the Cross,
|
||||
turned salt water into fresh, and they used it for a
|
||||
considerable time. Some of this water was also carried into
|
||||
different countries, and a great number of sick persons were
|
||||
instantaneously cured by it. He called several dead men to
|
||||
life, among whom was one who had been buried the day before,
|
||||
and who was disinterred by command of the saint; and likewise
|
||||
two others who were being carried to the grave, and whom he
|
||||
took by the hand and restored living to their parents. He had
|
||||
the spirit of prophecy, and foretold many things, remote both
|
||||
in place and time. Utterly worn out with his labours, he died
|
||||
full of good works in the island of San-Chan in the Canton
|
||||
River, (upon the 2nd day of December, in the year of our Lord
|
||||
1552.) His body was buried in quick lime, and, being again
|
||||
taken up, was again buried in the same, but at the end of
|
||||
many months it was found entirely incorrupt, and sweet, and,
|
||||
when cut, blood flowed freely from it. From China it was
|
||||
carried to Malacca, and, as soon as it reached that place, a
|
||||
plague, which was raging there, ceased. At length, when he
|
||||
had become famous throughout the whole world for new and
|
||||
wonderful miracles, Gregory XV added his name to the list of
|
||||
the Saints.

Potest omnis creaturæ nómine omnis natio Géntium designari.
|
||||
Ante enim dictum fuerat: In viam Géntium ne abieritis; nunc
|
||||
autem dícitur: Prædicate omni creaturæ: ut scilicet prius a
|
||||
Judǽa Apostolórum repulsa prædicátio tunc nobis in adjutórium
|
||||
fieret, cum hanc illa ad damnatiónis suæ testimónium superba
|
||||
repulísset. Sed cum discipulos ad prædicándum Véritas mittit,
|
||||
quid aliud in mundo facit, nisi grana seminis spargit? Et
|
||||
pauca grana mittit in semine, ut multárum messium fruges
|
||||
recipiat ex nostra fide.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Neque étenim in universo mundo tanta fidelium messis
|
||||
exsúrgeret, si de manu Dómini super rationalem terram illa
|
||||
electa grana prædicántium non venissent. Sequitur: Qui
|
||||
crediderit et baptizátus fúerit, salvus erit: qui vero non
|
||||
crediderit, condemnábitur. Fortasse unusquísque apud
|
||||
semetípsum dicat: Ego jam credidi, salvus ero. Verum dicit,
|
||||
si fidem opéribus tenet. Vera étenim fides est, quæ in hoc,
|
||||
quod verbis dicit, móribus non contradicit. Hinc est enim
|
||||
quod de quibusdam falsis fidelibus Paulus dicit: Qui
|
||||
confiténtur se nosse Deum, factis autem negant.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Signa autem eos qui credituri sunt, hæc sequéntur: In nómine
|
||||
meo dæmónia ejícient, linguis loquéntur novis, serpéntes
|
||||
tollent: et si mortiferum quid biberint, non eis nocébit:
|
||||
super ægros manus impónent, et bene habébunt. Numquidnam,
|
||||
fratres mei, quia ista signa non fácitis, minime creditis?
|
||||
Sed hæc necessaria in exordio Ecclésiæ fuérunt. Ut enim ad
|
||||
fidem cresceret multitúdo credéntium, miraculis fuerat
|
||||
nutriénda: quia et nos, cum arbústa plantamus, tamdiu eis
|
||||
aquam infúndimus, quoúsque ea in terra jam coaluisse
|
||||
videámus: et si semel radícem fixerint, irrigátio cessabit.
|
||||
Hinc est enim quod Paulus dicit: Linguæ in signum sunt non

||||
fidelibus, sed infidelibus.

By the words every creature we may understand every tribe of
|
||||
the Gentiles. Of aforetime it had been said, Go not into the
|
||||
way of the Gentiles, (Matth. x. 5,) but now, Preach the
|
||||
Gospel to every creature, that, since the Jews had proudly
|
||||
rejected the preaching of the Apostles, that might become our
|
||||
gain which was the seal of their condemnation. But when the
|
||||
Eternal Truth sendeth forth His disciples to preach, what
|
||||
doth He but scatter seed over the field of the world? He
|
||||
scattereth abroad a few grains for seed, that He may
|
||||
afterward reap an abundant harvest in our faith.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The great harvest of faithful souls throughout the whole
|
||||
world would never have sprung up, if the hand of the Lord had
|
||||
not first scattered those chosen grains of preachers over the
|
||||
reasonable soil of men's minds. Then is written, He that
|
||||
believeth and is baptized shall be saved but he that
|
||||
believeth not, shall be damned. Now, perchance, thou sayest
|
||||
in thine heart I believe, and therefore I shall be saved.
|
||||
True, if to thy faith thou dost add works. He only hath a
|
||||
living faith whose life doth not give the lie to his
|
||||
profession. It is of this that Paul speaketh, where he saith
|
||||
of certain vain believers, They profess that they know God;
|
||||
but in works they deny Him. (Tit. i. 16.)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
And these signs shall follow them that believe In My name
|
||||
they shall cast out devils, they shall speak with new
|
||||
tongues, they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any
|
||||
deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on
|
||||
the sick, and they shall recover. My brethren, these signs do
|
||||
not follow us. Do we, then, not believe? Nay. The truth is,
|
||||
these things were needful when the Church was young. That she
|
||||
might grow by the increase of the faithful, she needed to be
|
||||
nourished with miracles. So we, when we plant a young tree,
|
||||
continually water and tend it, till we see that it hath taken
|
||||
firm root in the earth but when once it hath taken firm root,
|
||||
it can grow of itself. Hence Paul saith of tongues Tongues
|
||||
are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that
|
||||
believe not. ~(i Cor. xiv. 22.)
