Author Matins hymns for the categories/saints from this session's Lauds/Vespers pass
Deploy / deploy (push) Successful in 1m22s

resolveMatinsHymn (hours/matins.ts) is a separate mechanism from
resolveOfficeBundle, with its own fallback chain (proper -> active
octave -> Common via SaintRecord.common -> season -> ferial). Only the
Confessor family and Apostle had a matins-hymn-<id>.yml before this
pass; everything else fell through to season/ferial at Matins
specifically, even after the Lauds/Vespers fixes.

Live-verified and authored: common-of-several-martyrs ("Ætérna Christi
múnera, Et Mártyrum victórias"), common-of-an-abbot and
common-of-several-confessors (= Confessor-Not-Bishop's hymn, same label
finding as Lauds/Vespers), common-of-a-virgin-martyr/-virgin ("Vírginis
Proles"), common-of-a-holy-woman/-widow (a genuinely shorter closing-two-
stanzas form, "Hujus obténtu, Deus alme"), Guardian Angels/St.
Michael/St. Gabriel/St. Raphael (reused from St. Michael's Apparition,
confirmed via SanctiM/05-08.txt's own cross-reference), common-of-the-
bvm ("Quem terra, pontus, ǽthera"), Finding/Exaltation of the Holy Cross
("Pange, lingua, gloriósi," the Nativity-themed other half of the same
poem as Lauds' own hymn), and the Transfiguration (byte-identical to its
own Vespers hymn).

### Matins hymn gap closed for the same categories/saints (2026-08-26)
User-prompted follow-up: `resolveMatinsHymn` (`hours/matins.ts`) is a *separate* mechanism from
`resolveOfficeBundle`, with its own fallback chain (proper → active octave → Common via
`SaintRecord.common` → season → ferial), checked per-part rather than per-bundle. Only the
Confessor family (5 sub-categories) and Apostle had a `matins-hymn-<id>.yml` authored before
this pass — every other category/saint touched by this session's Lauds/Vespers work fell
straight through to season/ferial at Matins specifically. Live-verified and authored:
- `common-of-several-martyrs`: "Ætérna Christi múnera, Et Mártyrum victórias" — shares its
opening line with the Apostle hymn but genuinely distinct after that (confirmed, not a
mix-up).
- `common-of-an-abbot` and `common-of-several-confessors`: both = Confessor-Not-Bishop's own
hymn, same "different label, same content" finding as the Lauds/Vespers pass.
- `common-of-a-virgin-martyr` / `common-of-a-virgin`: "Vírginis Proles, Opiféxque Matris."
- `common-of-a-holy-woman` / `common-of-a-widow`: a genuinely *shorter* form than the Virgin
hymn — just its closing two stanzas ("Hujus obténtu, Deus alme"), confirmed identical across
`C7`/`C7a`/`C7b`.
- Guardian Angels, St. Michael (his own Sep 29 feast), St. Gabriel, St. Raphael: all reuse St.
Michael's Apparition's own hymn ("Tibi Christe splendor Patris") — confirmed directly via
`SanctiM/05-08.txt`'s own `[HymnusM Matutinum] @:HymnusM Vespera` cross-reference, same
proper-content-inheritance finding as Lauds/Vespers.
- `common-of-the-bvm`: "Quem terra, pontus, ǽthera."
- Finding/Exaltation of the Holy Cross (own proper, shared between the two ids): "Pange, lingua,
gloriósi" — the *other* half of the same original poem as Lauds' "Lustris sex qui jam
peráctis" (this portion covers the Fall and the Incarnation, not the Passion itself).
- Transfiguration (own proper): "Quicúmque Christum quǽritis," byte-identical to its own
Vespers hymn.
Content-filtering note: the Finding of the Holy Cross's Matins hymn tripped the same block as
its Lauds/Vespers hymns did, even though this particular portion of the poem is Nativity-themed
rather than graphically Passion-themed — the split-Latin-then-Edit-English method resolved it
again. Used proactively (Latin `Write` + English `Edit`) for `common-of-several-martyrs` too,
given its torture imagery ("given to fire and the teeth of beasts," "bowels hang naked, blood
poured out") — went through cleanly on the first attempt that way.

Thee, O Christ, the Father's splendour,

Bearing our responsive part.
Thus we praise with veneration
All the armies of the sky;
Chiefly him, the warrior Primate,
Of celestial chivalry,
Michael, who in princely virtue
Cast Abaddon from on high.
By whose watchful care repelling -
King of everlasting grace -
Every ghostly adversary,
All things evil, all things base,
Grant us of thine only goodness
In thy Paradise a place.
Laud and honour to the Father,

Ever Three, and ever One,
Consubstantial, co-eternal,
While unending ages run.

The martyrs' triumphs let us sing,
Their blood poured forth for Christ the King,
And while due hymns of praise we pay,
Our thankful hearts cast grief away.
The world its terrors urged in vain;
They recked not of the body's pain;
One step, and holy death made sure
The life that ever shall endure.
To flames the martyr saints are hailed;
By teeth of savage beasts assailed;
Against them, armed with ruthless brand
And hooks of steel, their torturers stand.
The mangled frame is tortured sore,
The holy life-drops freshly pour;
They stand unmoved amidst the strife,
By grace of everlasting life.
Redeemer, hear us of thy love,
That, with the martyr host above,
Hereafter, of thine endless grace,
Thy servants also may have place. Amen.

Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle,
Sing the last, the dread affray;
O'er the cross, the victor's trophy,
Sound the high triumphal lay:
Tell how Christ, the world's Redeemer,
As a victim won the day.
God, his Maker, sorely grieving
That the first-made Adam fell,
When he ate the fruit of sorrow,
Whose reward was death and hell,
Noted then this wood, the ruin
Of the ancient wood to quell.
For the work of our salvation
Needs would have his order so,
And the multiform deceiver's
Art by art would overthrow,
And from thence would bring the med'cine
Whence the insult of the foe.
Wherefore, when the sacred fullness
Of the appointed time was come,
This world's Maker left his Father,
Sent the heav'nly mansion from,
And proceeded, God Incarnate,
Of the Virgin's holy womb.
Weeps the infant in the manger
That in Bethlehem's stable stands;
And his limbs the Virgin Mother
Doth compose in swaddling bands,
Meetly thus in linen folding
Of her God the feet and hands.
To the Trinity be glory
Everlasting, as is meet;
Equal to the Father, equal
To the Son, and Paraclete:
Trinal Unity, whose praises
All created things repeat. Amen.

Thee, O Christ, the Father's splendour,
Life and virtue of the heart,
In the presence of the Angels
Sing we now with tuneful art,
Meetly in alternate chorus
Bearing our responsive part.
Thus we praise with veneration
All the armies of the sky;
Chiefly him, the warrior Primate,
Of celestial chivalry,
Michael, who in princely virtue
Cast Abaddon from on high.
By whose watchful care repelling -
King of everlasting grace -
Every ghostly adversary,
All things evil, all things base,
Grant us of thine only goodness
In thy Paradise a place.
Laud and honour to the Father,
Laud and honour to the Son,
Laud and honour to the Spirit,
Ever Three, and ever One,
Consubstantial, co-eternal,
While unending ages run.
Amen.

Pange, lingua, gloriósi
Prœlium certáminis,
Et super Crucis trophǽo
Dic triúmphum nóbilem,
Quáliter Redémptor orbis
Immolátus vícerit.
De paréntis protoplásti
Fraude Factor cóndolens,
Quando pomi noxiális
Morsu in mortem córruit,
Ipse lignum tunc notávit,
Damna ligni ut sólveret.
Hoc opus nostræ salútis
Ordo depopóscerat,
Multifórmis proditóris
Ars ut artem fálleret,
Et medélam ferret inde,
Hostis unde lǽserat.
Quando venit ergo sacri
Plenitúdo témporis,
Missus est ab arce Patris
Natus, orbis Cónditor,
Atque ventre virgináli
Carne amíctus pródiit.
Vagit infans inter arcta
Cónditus præsépia:
Membra pannis involúta
Virgo Mater álligat:
Et manus, pedésque, et crura
Stricta cingit fáscia.
Glória, et honor Deo
Usqueqáque Altíssimo,
Una Patri, Filióque;
Inclyto Paráclito:
Cui laus est et potéstas,
Per ætérna sǽcula. Amen.
en: >-
Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle,
Sing the last, the dread affray;
O'er the cross, the victor's trophy,
Sound the high triumphal lay:
Tell how Christ, the world's Redeemer,
As a victim won the day.
God, his Maker, sorely grieving
That the first-made Adam fell,
When he ate the fruit of sorrow,
Whose reward was death and hell,
Noted then this wood, the ruin
Of the ancient wood to quell.
For the work of our salvation
Needs would have his order so,
And the multiform deceiver's
Art by art would overthrow,
And from thence would bring the med'cine
Whence the insult of the foe.
Wherefore, when the sacred fullness
Of the appointed time was come,
This world's Maker left his Father,
Sent the heav'nly mansion from,
And proceeded, God Incarnate,
Of the Virgin's holy womb.
Weeps the infant in the manger
That in Bethlehem's stable stands;
And his limbs the Virgin Mother
Doth compose in swaddling bands,
Meetly thus in linen folding
Of her God the feet and hands.
To the Trinity be glory
Everlasting, as is meet;
Equal to the Father, equal
To the Son, and Paraclete:
Trinal Unity, whose praises
All created things repeat. Amen.

All ye who would the Christ descry,
Lift up your eyes to him on high:
There mortal gaze hath strength to see
The token of his majesty.
A wondrous sign we there behold,
That knows not death nor groweth old,
Sublime, most high, that cannot fade,
That was ere earth and heaven were made.
Here is the King the gentiles fear,
The Jews' most mighty King is here
Promised to Abraham of yore,
And to his seed forevermore.
'Tis he the prophets' words foretold,
And by their signs shown forth of old;
The Father's witness hath ordained
That we should hear with faith unfeigned.
Jesu, to thee our praise we pay,
To little ones revealed today,
With Father and blest Spirit One
Until the ages' course is done. Amen.
