13 of August's 16 SanctiM-track saints authored, including the Duplex I class feasts of St. Lawrence and the Assumption of the B.V.M. The Assumption's presence confirms this app's calendar already maps fixed BVM feasts, despite an older note in the parent workspace CLAUDE.md suggesting otherwise -- flagged in memory as stale documentation to verify against, not trust blindly. 3 saints left unsourced (Common-only or Nocturn-1-only vigil content).

Clara nóbilis virgo, Assísii nata in Umbria, sanctum Francíscum concívem suum imitáta,
|
||||
cuncta sua bona in eleemósynas et páuperum subsídia distríbuit et convértit. De sǽculi
|
||||
strépitu fúgiens, in campéstrem declinávit ecclésiam, ibíque ab eódem beáto Francísco
|
||||
recépta tonsúra, consanguíneis ipsam redúcere conántibus fórtiter réstitit. Et
|
||||
dénique ad ecclésiam sancti Damiáni fuit per eúmdem addúcta, ubi ei Dóminus plures
|
||||
sócias aggregávit; et sic ipsa sacrárum sorórum collégium instítuit, quarum régimen,
|
||||
nímia sancti Francísci devícta importunitáte, recépit. Suum monastérium sollícite ac
|
||||
prudénter, in timóre Dómini ac plena órdinis observántia, annis quadragínta duóbus
|
||||
mirabíliter gubernávit; ejus enim vita erat áliis erudítio et doctrína, unde céteræ
|
||||
vivéndi régulam didicérunt.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Ut, carne depréssa, spíritu convalésceret, nudam humum et intérdum sarménta pro lecto
|
||||
habébat, et pro pulvinári sub cápite durum lignum. Una túnica cum mantéllo de vili et
|
||||
híspido panno utebátur, áspero cilício nonnúmquam adhíbito juxta carnem. Tanta se
|
||||
frenábat abstinéntia, ut longo témpore tribus in hebdómada diébus nihil pénitus pro
|
||||
sui córporis aliménto gustáverit; réliquis autem diébus tali se cibórum parvitáte
|
||||
restríngens, ut áliæ, quómodo subsístere póterat, miraréntur. Binas quotánnis
|
||||
(ántequam ægrotáret) quadragésimas, solo pane et aqua refécta, jejunábat. Vigíliis
|
||||
ínsuper et oratiónibus assídue dédita, in his præcípue dies noctésque expendébat.
|
||||
Diútinus perpléxa languóribus, cum ad exercítium corporále non posset súrgere per se
|
||||
ipsam, sorórum suffrágio levabátur; et, fulciméntis ad tergum appósitis, laborábat
|
||||
própriis mánibus, ne in suis étiam esset infirmitátibus otiósa. Amátrix præcípua
|
||||
paupertátis, ab ea pro nulla umquam necessitáte discéssit; et possessiónes pro
|
||||
sorórum sustentatióne a Gregório nono oblátas constantíssime recusávit.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Multis et váriis miráculis virtus suæ sanctitátis effúlsit. Cuídam de soróribus sui
|
||||
monastérii loquélam restítuit expedítam; álteri aurem surdam apéruit; laborántem
|
||||
febre, tuméntem hydrópisi, plagátam fístula, aliásque áliis oppréssas languóribus
|
||||
liberávit. Fratrem de órdine Minórum ab insániæ passióne sanávit. Cum óleum in
|
||||
monastério totáliter defecísset, Clara accépit úrceum atque lavit, et invéntus est
|
||||
óleo, benefício divínæ largitátis, implétus. Uníus panis medietátem ádeo multiplicávit,
|
||||
ut soróribus quinquagínta suffécerit. Saracénis Assísium obsidéntibus et Claræ
|
||||
monastérium invádere conántibus, ægra se ad portam afférri vóluit, unáque vas in quo
|
||||
sanctíssimum Eucharístiæ sacraméntum erat inclúsum, ibíque orávit: Ne tradas, Dómine,
|
||||
béstiis ánimas confiténtes tibi, et custódi fámulas tuas, quas pretióso sánguine
|
||||
redemísti. In cujus oratióne ea vox audíta est: Ego vos semper custódiam. Saracéni autem
|
||||
partim se fugæ mandárunt, partim, qui murum ascénderant, capti óculis, præcípites
|
||||
cecidérunt. Ipsa dénique Virgo, cum in extrémis ágeret, a cándido beatárum Vírginum
|
||||
cœtu (inter quas una eminéntior ac fulgídior apparébat) visitáta, ac sacra Eucharístia
|
||||
sumpta, et peccatórum indulgéntia ab Innocéntio quarto ditáta, tértio Idus Augústi
|
||||
ánimam Deo réddidit. Post óbitum vero quam plúrimis miráculis resplendéntem, Alexánder
|
||||
quartus inter sanctas Vírgines rétulit.

The noble maiden Clara was born at Assisi in Umbria. In imitation of her holy
|
||||
fellow-citizen Francis, she distributed all her goods among the poor and needy. She fled
|
||||
from the din of the world, and betook herself to the Church of St. Mary of the Angels in
|
||||
the fields, where blessed Francis cut her hair. She stoutly resisted the efforts of her
|
||||
family to make her come back, and after a while Francis took her to the Church of St.
|
||||
Damian, where the Lord gathered around her several companions. Thus she founded an holy
|
||||
Sisterhood, which, at the earnest entreaty of holy Francis, she governed. For two-and-forty
|
||||
years she directed her monastery with wonderful care and wisdom in the fear of the Lord
|
||||
and the full keeping of the Rule. Her own life was an instruction and teaching for the
|
||||
rest, whence others learnt to order their own.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
What she might wax stronger in spirit by keeping the body down, she made her bed on the
|
||||
bare ground, sometimes with little twigs, and with hard wood for a pillow. Her dress was
|
||||
a gown and cloak of mean and rough cloth, and she sometimes wore hair-cloth next the skin.
|
||||
She bridled herself with such abstinence, that for a long time she took no bodily
|
||||
nourishment whatever upon three days in the week. Upon the remaining days she ate so
|
||||
little that the others wondered how she lived. As long as her health allowed it, she kept
|
||||
two Lents every year, during which she fasted upon bread and water. Moreover, she was
|
||||
instant in watching and prayer, wherein she chiefly spent both her days and nights. She
|
||||
suffered from constant illnesses, and when she could not herself rise to bodily work, she
|
||||
sat up with the help of the sisters, and with her back propped, worked with her hands,
|
||||
that she might not be idle even in the midst of her weaknesses. She was an eminent lover
|
||||
of poverty, from which no need ever made her swerve, and she persistently refused the
|
||||
possessions which were offered to the sisters by Gregory IX. for their support.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The power of her holy life shone forth in many and diverse miracles. She restored the use
|
||||
of speech to one of the sisters in her convent; for another she opened a deaf ear; she
|
||||
healed one sick with fever, one swollen with dropsy, one troubled with an hollow oozing
|
||||
ulcer, and others afflicted with diverse ailments. She cured a brother of the Order of
|
||||
Friars Minors of raging madness. Once when all the oil in the house was spent, she took
|
||||
the vessel and washed it, and it was found filled with oil by the goodness of God. She
|
||||
multiplied half a loaf till it was enough to satisfy fifty sisters. When the Saracens
|
||||
attacked Assisi, and were fain to break into Clare's monastery, she being sick, caused
|
||||
herself to be carried to the door, and likewise the vessel in which was held the Most
|
||||
Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist, and there she prayed, saying: O Lord, deliver not unto
|
||||
beasts the souls of them that praise thee, but preserve thine handmaids whom Thou hast
|
||||
redeemed with thy Precious Blood. Whereupon a voice was heard which said: I will always
|
||||
preserve you. Some of the Saracens took to flight, and others who had mounted the wall
|
||||
became blind, and fell down headlong. When Clare herself was at the point of death she
|
||||
beheld a white multitude of blessed Virgins, with one among them nobler and brighter than
|
||||
the rest. Having received the Holy Eucharist, and a Plenary Indulgence from Innocent IV.,
|
||||
she resigned her soul to God upon the 12th day of August. After her death she became
|
||||
illustrious for very many miracles, and Alexander IV. enrolled her name among those of
|
||||
the Holy Virgins.
