of Jerusalem (March) Continuing the sweep of previously-never-added sanctoral content. New shared Common templates: collect-c7b.yml and benedictus-antiphon-common-of-several-women-martyrs.yml (Commune/C7b, "several women Martyrs, not Virgins" -- Perpetua and Felicity's own Common category, not authored before now). St. Gabriel Archangel (Mar 24), the Annunciation (Mar 25), St. John Damascene (Mar 27), and St. John Capistrano (Mar 28) are still open -- substantial feasts left for a follow-up pass. npm test (365 tests) and tsc --noEmit both pass.

Perpetua et Felicitas, in persecutione Severi imperatoris, in Africa, una cum
|
||||
Revocato, Saturnino et Secundulo comprehensæ sunt et in tenebricosum carcerem
|
||||
detrusæ; quibus ultra adjunctus est Satyrus. Erant adhuc catechumenæ, sed paulo
|
||||
post baptizatæ sunt. Paucis diebus interjectis, e carcere ad forum deductæ cum
|
||||
sociis, post gloriosam confessionem, ab Hilarione procuratore damnantur ad bestias.
|
||||
Inde hilares descendunt ad carcerem, ubi variis visionibus recreantur et ad
|
||||
martyrii palmam accenduntur. Perpetuam, nec patris senio confecti iteratæ preces et
|
||||
lacrimæ, nec erga filium infantem pendentem ad ubera maternus amor, nec supplicii
|
||||
atrocitas, a Christi fide dimovere umquam potuerunt.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Felicitas vero instante spectaculo die, cum octo jam menses prægnans esset, in
|
||||
magno erat luctu, ne differretur; leges quippe vetabant prægnantes supplicio
|
||||
affici. At precibus commartyrum accelerato partu, enixa est filiam. Cumque in
|
||||
partu laborans doleret, ait illi quidam de custodibus: Quæ sic modo doles, quid
|
||||
facies objecta bestiis? Cui illa: Modo ego patior; illic autem alius erit in me,
|
||||
qui patietur pro me, quia et ego pro illo passura sum.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In amphitheatrum, toto inspectante populo, producuntur tandem generosæ mulieres,
|
||||
Nonis Martii, ac primum flagellis cæduntur. Tunc a ferocissima vacca aliquamdiu
|
||||
jactatæ, plagis concisæ et in terram elisæ sunt. Demum cum sociis, qui a variis
|
||||
bestiis vexati fuerant, gladiorum ictibus conficiuntur. Harum sanctarum Mártyrum
|
||||
festum Pius decimus Pontifex maximus ad ritum duplicem pro universa Ecclesia evexit
|
||||
ac diei sextæ Martii adsignari mandavit.

Perpetua and Felicity were arrested during the persecution of the emperor Severus in
|
||||
Africa, together with Revocatus, Saturninus and Secundulus, and were cast into a dark
|
||||
dungeon, where Satyrus was added to their company. They were as yet catechumens but
|
||||
shortly afterwards they were baptized. After a few days they and their companions
|
||||
were led forth from prison to the court, and, after a glorious profession of faith,
|
||||
were condemned by the procurator Hilarion to the beasts. Thereupon they went down to
|
||||
the prison rejoicing, and there they were refreshed with many visions, and fired
|
||||
with longing for the martyr's palm. Neither the repeated prayers and tears of
|
||||
Perpetua's father, a man of extreme old age, nor her motherly love for her baby son
|
||||
still at the breast, nor the atrocity of the torture, could shake her faith in
|
||||
Christ.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
As the day of the spectacle came close, Felicity was afflicted with great sorrow
|
||||
lest it should be put off, since she was eight months with child; and the law
|
||||
forbade expectant mothers to be put to the torture. But at the prayers of her
|
||||
fellow-martyrs her delivery was hastened, and she gave birth to a daughter. While
|
||||
she was groaning in the pains of childbirth, one of the jailers said to her: What
|
||||
wilt thou do when thrown to the beasts, if thou groanest thus now? She replied: Now
|
||||
it is I who suffer; but then Another will be within me, who will suffer on my
|
||||
behalf, seeing that it is for him that I am to suffer.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
At length the noble-hearted women were brought into the amphitheatre, in the sight
|
||||
of all the people, on the 7th day of March, and were first beaten with scourges.
|
||||
Then they were tossed for some time by a ferocious cow, beaten with lashes, and
|
||||
dashed on the ground. Lastly, together with their companions, who had been attacked
|
||||
by various beasts, they were slain with blows of the sword. Pope Pius X raised the
|
||||
feast of these holy Martyrs to the rite of a double for the Universal Church, and
|
||||
ordered it to be kept on March 6th.
