Add 6 more February saints/feasts previously never added

Purification of the BVM (Feb 2), St. Andrew Corsini (Feb 4), St. John
of Matha (Feb 8), Apparition of the Immaculate BVM at Lourdes (Feb 11),
Ss. Seven Founders of the Servite Order (Feb 12), St. Gabriel of Our
Lady of Sorrows (Feb 27) -- all had real, complete Matins content in
the reference engine and no exclusion comment; simply never reached
during the earlier month-by-month sanctoral pulls. Continuing the same
sweep as January's St. Francis de Sales/St. Martina/St. John Bosco.

Test update (not a regression): St. Andrew Corsini transfers onto Feb 5
in years where Sexagesima falls on his own Feb 4, outranking St. Agatha
when it does -- february-sanctoral.test.ts's proof year for Agatha
moved from 2029 (now a collision year) to 2025 (clean).

npm test (365 tests) and tsc --noEmit both pass.

+        flúminis oram prope óppidum Lourdes diœcésis Tarbiénsis in Gállia, ipsa Virgo in
+        rupis sinu super specum Massabiélle puéllæ cuidam, vernácula lingua Bernadétte
+        nuncupátæ, paupérrimæ quidem sed ingénuæ ac piæ, plúries se conspiciéndam óbtulit.
+        Immaculáta Virgo juveníli ac benígno videbátur aspéctu, nívea veste niveóque pállio
+        contécta, ac zona cærúlea succíncta; nudos pedes áurea rosa ornábat. Primo
+        apparitiónis die, qui fuit undécimus Februárii anno millésimo octingentésimo
+        quinquagésimo octávo, puéllam signum crucis rite piéque faciéndum edócuit, atque ad
+        sacri rosárii recitatiónem, exémplo suo, corónam, quæ prius ex brácchio demíssa
+        pendébat, manu advólvens, excitávit: quod in céteris étiam apparitiónibus prǽstitit.
+        Altero autem apparitiónis die, puélla in simplicitáte cordis sui, diabólicam fraudem
+        timens, lustrálem aquam in Vírginem effúdit; sed beáta Virgo, léniter arrídens,
+        benigniórem illi vultum osténdit. Cum vero tértio apparuísset, puéllam ad specum per
+        quíndecim dies invitávit. Exínde eam sǽpius est allocúta, ac pro peccatóribus oráre,
+        terram deosculári, pœnitentiámque ágere est hortáta; deínde imperávit, ut
+        sacerdótibus edíceret, ædificándum ibi esse sacéllum, solemnísque supplicatiónibus
+        more illo accedéndum. Mandávit ínsuper ut e fonte, qui sub aréna adhuc latébat sed
+        mox erat eruptúrus, aquam bíberet, eáque se abstérgeret. Dénique die festo
+        Annuntiatiónis, percontánti eníxe puéllæ illíus nomen, cujus aspéctu tóties
+        dignáta fúerat, Virgo, admótis péctori mánibus elatísque in cælum óculis,
+        respóndit: Immaculáta Concéptio ego sum.
+

+        Percrebrescénte fama beneficiórum, quæ in sacro specu recepísse fidéles
+        dicebántur, augebátur in dies hóminum concúrsus, quos loci relígio ad specum
+        advocábat. Itaque prodigiórum fama puellǽque candóre mortus Tarbiénsis epíscopus,
+        quarto ab enarrátis anno, post jurídiam factórum inquisitiónem, supernaturáles
+        esse apparitiónis notas sua senténtia probávit, cultúmque Vírginis immaculátæ in

+        In the fourth year from the dogmatic definition of the Immaculate Conception of the
+        Blessed Virgin, at the bank of the river Gave near the town of Lourdes of the diocese
+        of Tarbes in France, the Virgin herself in a bend of the rock above the grotto of
+        Massabiele, often shewed herself to a certain girl, called in the vernacular tongue
+        Bernadette, indeed most poor but noble and pious, to be seen. The Immaculate Virgin
+        appeared with a young and kind appearance, clothed with a white garment and white
+        veil, and girt with a blue girdle; she adorned her bare feet with a golden rose. On
+        the first day of the apparition, which was the eleventh of February in 1858, she
+        taught the girl the sign of the cross to be duly and piously made, and she incited
+        her, by her example, to the recitation of the sacred rosary. On the second day of the
+        apparition, the girl in the simplicity of her heart, fearing diabolic fraud, flung
+        holy water on the Virgin; but the blessed Virgin, smiling gently, shewed her face
+        more kindly to her. And when she appeared a third time, she invited the girl to the
+        grotto for fifteen days. Thence she often addressed her; then commanded, that it
+        might be declared to the priests, a chapel to be built there, and to be approached
+        there for supplications in a manner of solemnity. Moreover she commanded that from
+        the spring, which thus far was hidden under the sand but now was about to erupt, she
+        might drink the water, and by it cleanse herself. Finally on the feast day of the
+        Annunciation, to the girl earnestly inquiring her name, the Virgin, her hands having
+        been moved to her breast and her eyes raised to heaven, answered: I am the Immaculate
+        Conception.
+
+
+        The fame of favours becoming widespread, which the faithful were said to have
+        received in the sacred grotto, in time the assembly of men increased, whom the
+        sanctity of the place called to the grotto. Therefore the bishop of Tarbes moved by
+        the fame of the wonders and the purity of the girl, after a juridical inquiry of the
+        happenings, approved by his decree the signs of the apparition to be supernatural,
+        and permitted the worship of the immaculate Virgin in the same grotto. Soon a chapel
+        is built: from that day the almost innumerable crowds of the faithful, for the
+        purpose of prayer and supplication, from France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, and the other
+        provinces of Europe and also from the remote regions of America arrived there in
+        every year, and the name of the Immaculate of Lourdes becometh famous of countries
+        everywhere. The water of the spring, having been carried into all parts of the
+        world, restored health to the sick. And the Catholic world mindful of such great
+        favours, built holy shrines there with wonderful work.
+
+
+        It is known by all for certain the pilgrimages of this sort to have stirred up faith,
+        in a world becoming cold, the soul to have increased to profess the Christian law,
+        and to have spread the worship of the immaculate Virgin in a wonderful manner. Pius
+        the ninth, with sacred indulgences, distinguished it with the privilege of an
+        archconfraternity and title of a minor Basilica; and willed the image honoured there
+        of the Godbearer to be adorned with a crown by his apostolic legate in France. And
+        Leo the thirteenth also conferred innumerable benefits, and arranged to complete by
+        his name the solemn dedication of the Church under the title of the Rosary; he
+        accumulated the extent of which benefits, when, with the asking of many bishops, he
+        kindly granted a solemn feast to be celebrated under the title of the Apparition of
+        the blessed Virgin Mary immaculate with a proper Office and proper Mass. Finally
+        supreme Pontiff Pius the tenth extended the same feast to the universal Church.

+
+
+        Quid dicébas, o Adam? Múlier quam dedísti mihi, dedit mihi de ligno, et comédi.
+        Verba malítiæ sunt hæc quibus magis áugeas quam déleas culpam. Verúmtamen Sapiéntia

+        Rejoice, father Adam, and yet more thou mother Eve, ye that are the source of all,
+        and the ruin of all, and the unhappy cause of their ruin before ye gave them birth.
+        Be comforted both in your daughter, and such a daughter; but chiefly thou, O woman,
+        of whom the first evil came, and who hast cast thy slur upon all women. The time is
+        come for the slur to be taken away, and for the man to have nothing to say against
+        the woman. At the first, when he unwisely began to make excuse, he scrupled not to
+        throw the blame upon her, saying, The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave
+        me of the tree, and I did eat. Wherefore, O Eve, betake thyself to Mary Mother,
+        betake thyself to thy daughter let the daughter answer for the mother let her take
+        away her mother's reproach; let her make up to her father for her mother's fault for
+        if man be fallen by means of woman, it is by means of woman that he is raised up
+        again.
+
+
+        What didst thou say, O Adam? The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave me
+        of the tree, and I did eat. These are wrathful words, by the which thou dost rather
+        magnify than diminish thine offence. Nevertheless, Wisdom hath defeated thy malice.
+        God asked thee that He might find in thee an occasion of pardon, but, in that He
+        found it not, He hath sought and found it in the Treasure of His Own mercy. One
+        woman answereth for another; the wise for the foolish; the lowly for the proud; for
+        her that gave thee of the tree of death, another that giveth thee to taste of the
+        tree of life; for her that brought thee the bitter food of sin, another that giveth
+        thee of the sweet fruits of righteousness. Wherefore accuse the woman no more, but
+        speak in thanksgiving, and say, Lord, the woman whom Thou hast given me, she hath
+        given me of the tree of life, and I have eaten; and it is in my mouth sweeter than
+        honey, for thereby hast Thou quickened me. Behold, it was for this that the angel
+        Gabriel was sent to the Virgin, to the most worshipful of women, a woman more
+        wonderful than all women, the restorer of them that went before, and the quickener
+        of them that come after her.
+
+
+        Has it not of this thy daughter, O Adam, that God spake when He said unto the
+        serpent, I will put enmity between thee and the woman And if thou wilt still doubt
+        that He speaketh of Mary, hear what followeth She shall bruise thy head. Who won
+        this conquest but Mary? She brought to nought the whole wiles of Satan, whether for
+        the pollution of her body or the injury of her soul. Was it not of her that Solomon
+        spake, where he saith, Who shall find a virtuous woman? The wise man knew the
+        weaknesses of women, how frail they are in body, and how changeable in mind. But he
+        had read that God had promised that the enemy, who had prevailed by means of a
+        woman, was by a woman to be overthrown, and he believed. But he wondered greatly,
+        and said, Who shall find a virtuous woman? that is to say If our salvation, and the
+        bringing back of that which is lost, and the final triumph over the enemy, is in the
+        hand of a woman, it must needs be that a virtuous woman be found, meet to work in
+        that matter.

+        In old time it was written: And of Zion shall it not be said This and that man was
+        born in her, and the Highest Himself shall establish her? Blessed be the omnipotence
+        of Him That was born! Blessed the glory of Him That came from heaven to earth! While
+        yet He was borne in His Mother's womb, He was saluted by John the Baptist; He was
+        presented in the temple, and recognised by that famous, ancient, and glorious
+        worthy, the old man Simeon. As soon as he knew Him he worshipped Him, and said Lord,
+        now lettest Thou thy servant depart in peace for mine eyes have seen thy Salvation.
+
+
+        He lingered in the world to see the birth of Him Who made the world. The old man
+        knew the Child, and in that Child became a child himself, for in the love wherewith
+        he regarded the Father of all, he felt his own years to be but as of yesterday. The
+        old man Simeon bore the new-born Christ, and all the while, Christ was the old man's
+        Lord. It had been told him by the Lord that he should not taste of death before he
+        had seen the birth of the Lord's Christ. Now Christ is born, and all the old man's
+        wishes on earth are fulfilled. He That came to a decrepit world came to an old man.
+
+
+        He wished not to remain long in the world, but he longed to see Christ in the world,
+        singing with the Prophet, and saying: Show us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy
+        salvation. And now at last, that ye may know that the cause of his joy was that this
+        prayer was granted, he saith: Now lettest Thou thy servant depart in peace, for mine
+        eyes have seen thy salvation. The Prophets have sung that the Maker of heaven and
+        earth would converse on earth with men, an angel hath declared that the Creator of
+        flesh and spirit would come in the flesh, the unborn John, yet in the womb, hath
+        saluted the unborn Saviour yet in the womb. The old man Simeon hath seen God, a

+        And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and the same man
+        was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel. The birth of the Lord is
+        attested not only by Angels and Prophets, and shepherds, but also by elders and just
+        men. Every age, and both sexes, as well as the miracles of the events themselves, are

+        Well is he called just, who looked not for favour for himself, but for consolation
+        for his people. He desired to be set free from the bondage of this frail body, but he
+        waited to see the Promised One for he knew that blessed are the eyes that see Him.
+        Then took he Him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said: Lord, now lettest Thou

+        Word of God, let him embrace it with good works, as it were with arms of faith and
+        then let him depart in peace, for he shall not see death, who hath seen life. Behold
+        how the Lord's Birth doth overflow with abounding grace for all, and prophecy is not
+        denied to the just, but to the unbelieving. Behold, Simeon prophesieth that the Lord
+        Jesus Christ is come for the fall and rising again of many; yea, He shall separate

+        In the thirteenth century, when the more cultured parts of Italy were rent by the
+        dread dissension of the Emperor Frederick the Second and by bloody civil wars, the
+        mercy of God set forth diverse men eminent for holiness, and among others raised up
+        seven nobles of Florence, who were bound one to another in charity and gave an
+        illustrious example of brotherly love. Their names were Bonfiglio Monaldi,
+        Bonajuncta Manetti, Manetto Antalli, Amadeo de' Amidei, Uguccio de' Uguccioni,
+        Sosteneo de' Sostenei, and Alexis de' Falconieri. Upon the holiday of the Assumption
+        of the Virgin into heaven, in the year 1233, they were praying in the oratory of a
+        guild called the Guild of Praise, when the same Mother of God appeared to each one
+        of them, and bade them embrace a life of greater holiness and perfection. These seven
+        men discussed the matter with the Bishop of Florence, and then, considering neither
+        the nobility of their birth nor their wealth, and clad in haircloth under vile and
+        worn-out garments, withdrew into a little house in the country upon the eighth day of
+        September, that they might begin their holier life upon the same day whereon the
+        Mother of God herself had by her birth begun her life of holiness upon earth.
+
+
+        She showed by a miracle how acceptable in His sight should be their manner of life,
+        for a short while after, when these seven men were begging alms from door to door
+        through the city of Florence, it came to pass that some children, among whom was
+        holy Philip Benizi, who had then scarcely entered the fifth month of his age, called
+        them blessed Mary's servants, by the which name they were called ever after. To
+        avoid meeting people, and in the desire to be alone, they all withdrew together to
+        the solitude of Monte Senario, and there began a kind of heavenly life. They lived in
+        caves and upon herbs and water only, while they wore out their bodies with watching
+        and other hardships, while they contemplated unweariedly the sufferings of Christ
+        and the woes of His most sorrowful Mother. One Good Friday, when their thoughts were
+        fixed thereon more than ever, the Blessed Virgin appeared to them twice, and showed
+        them her garments of mourning as those wherein they should clothe themselves. She
+        bade them know that she would take it right well that they should raise up in the
+        Church a new order to recall the memory of the sorrows which she bore beneath the
+        Cross of the Lord. Holy Peter, the illustrious martyr of the Order of Friars
+        Preachers, learnt this not only from his familiar converse with these holy men, but
+        also from a special vision of the Mother of God, and it was on his incitement that
+        they founded the regular Order called that of the Servites, or servants of the
+        Blessed Virgin, the which Order was afterward approved by the Supreme Pontiff
+        Innocent IV.
+
+
+        These holy men, when they had gathered to themselves some companions, began to go
+        through the cities and towns of Italy, and especially of Tuscany, everywhere
+        preaching Christ crucified, stilling contests among the citizens, and calling back
+        almost countless backsliders into the path of grace. Neither did they make Italy
+        only the field of their Gospel labours, but also France, Germany, and Poland. They
+        passed away to be ever with the Lord when they had spread far and wide a sweet
+        savour of Christ, and were famous also for the glory of signs and wonders. As one
+        love of brotherhood and of the monastic life had joined them together upon earth, so
+        one grave held their dead bodies, and one honour was paid them by the people. For
+        this reason the Supreme Pontiffs Clement XI. and Benedict XIII. confirmed the honour
+        which had for centuries been paid to them individually, and Leo XIII., after proof of
+        their miracles which had been wrought by God on the common invocation of these
+        saints, after their veneration had been sanctioned in the jubilee year of his
+        priesthood, decreed to them the honours paid to Saints, and ordered that their
+        memory should every year be kept throughout the universal Church with an office and
+        Mass.

+        Peter was a fisherman, he was not rich, he earned his bread by his hand and skill,
+        and nevertheless he is thus bold, and saith confidently: We have forsaken all. And
+        because it sufficeth not to forsake only, he addeth that which to do is to be
+        perfect: and followed thee. We have done that which Thou hast commanded us, what
+        reward therefore wilt Thou give us? And Jesus said unto them Amen I say unto you,
+        that ye which have followed Me, in the regeneration, when the Son of Man shall sit
+        in the throne of His glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the
+        twelve tribes of Israel. He said not, Ye which have forsaken all, for this did even
+        Crates the philosopher, and they which have set nothing by riches are many, but, Ye
+        which have followed Me. This did the Apostles, and this do believers do.
+
+
+        In the regeneration, when the Son of Man shall sit in the throne of His glory, and
+        when the dead shall rise again from corruption incorruptible, ye also shall sit upon
+        twelve thrones of judgment, condemning the twelve tribes of Israel, because, when ye
+        believed in Me, they would not. And every one that hath forsaken houses, or
+        brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My
+        Name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. This
+        place agreeth well with that other where the Saviour saith I came not to send peace,
+        but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the
+        daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and
+        a man's foes shall be they of his own household. Every one, therefore, that hath set
+        no store by affection, and riches, and the pleasures of the world, for Christ's
+        faith's sake, and the preaching of the Gospel, shall receive an hundred-fold, and
+        shall inherit everlasting life.
+
+
+        By reason of these words, an hundredfold, some will have that there shall be a
+        thousand years after the resurrection, wherein they that have forsaken all things
+        shall receive an hundredfold of those things which they have forsaken, and shall
+        inherit everlasting life. Such men consider not that though in other things this
+        were worthy, as touching wives it is unseemly for it becometh us not to think that
+        he that hath forsaken one wife in this world, shall receive an hundred wives in that
+        which is to come. But the meaning is this, that every one that for the Saviour's sake
+        hath forsaken earthly things, shall receive spiritual things which things, being
+        rightly weighed against earthly things, are as though an hundredfold were weighed
+        against one.

+        Andream, Floréntiæ ex nobili Corsinórum família natum, paréntes precibus a Deo

+        Carmelitárum institutum amplexus est; in quo variis tentatiónibus a dæmone vexatus,

+        This Andrew was born at Florence, of the noble family of Corsini. His birth was a
+        special answer to prayer, and his parents vowed him to the Blessed Virgin. God
+        fore-showed even before his birth what he was to be. While his mother was great with
+        child she dreamt that she brought forth a wolf, which ran to the Carmelite Church and
+        was changed into a lamb as soon as it reached the porch. The lad was brought up in
+        godliness and learning becoming his rank, but turned to bad courses; wherefore his
+        mother often rebuked him. Nevertheless, when he knew how his parents had vowed him
+        to the Maiden Mother of God, the love of God touched his heart, and the vision of
+        his mother moving him, he betook himself to the Institute of the Carmelites. In that
+        place the devil exercised him with many and diverse temptations, but could not break
+        him off from his determination to profess as a friar. He was soon after sent to
+        Paris, where he finished his studies at the University, and took his degree; after
+        which he returned to his own country, and was set over the houses of his order in
+        Tuscany.
+
+
+        The Bishop of Fiesole being dead, the Church in that place chose Andrew Corsini for
+        his successor. He held himself altogether unworthy of that office, and for a long
+        time lay hidden and unknown, till he was betrayed by the voice of a child
+        marvellously speaking, and found outside the city. Then, lest he should seem to
+        resist the Will of God, he took the Bishopric. Being dignified with this office, he
+        set himself to a more perfect exercise of the virtue of lowliness, whereof he was
+        already a diligent practiser. He was eminent in watchfulness over the flock
+        committed to his charge, joining thereto great tenderness and liberality towards the
+        poor. He continued instant in prayer and watching. Thus was he so adorned with these
+        and many other virtues, and even with the gift of prophecy, that the fame of his holy
+        life was in the mouths of all men.
+
+
+        Urban V., moved by the fame of his godly conversation, sent him as his Legate to
+        quiet disturbances at Bologna. He endured much in the discharge of this duty,
+        calming with great wisdom the angry passions of the citizens, who had broken out
+        into civil war, and when peace was restored, he returned home. Shortly after, he
+        received from the Blessed Virgin a warning of his approaching death, and being worn
+        out with his unceasing toil, and the rigour of his voluntary mortifications, he
+        passed to the kingdom of heaven, in the year of our Lord 1373, and the 71st of his
+        own age. His name became illustrious for many and great miracles, and Urban VIII.
+        enrolled him in the number of the Saints. His body resteth at Florence in the Church
+        of his Order, and is looked on with great reverence by the citizens, to whom, even
+        in these days, he hath more than once shown himself a protector.

+        Gabriel, Assisii in Umbria, honesto genere natus, et Franciscus ob seráphici civis
+        memóriam vocatus, egregiam animi índolem a púero osténdit. Adoléscens, cum Spoleti
+        litteris operam daret, inani sæculi spécie et pompa aliquantulum állici visus est.
+        Sed miserentis Dei munere, qui eum ad perfectiónem christianæ vitæ jamdúdum
+        invitabat, cum in morbum incidísset, sæculi vanitátem fastidire cœpit, atque
+        immortalia dumtáxat bona appétere. Quo autem citius Deo vocanti obtemperaret,
+        factum est, ut insignem illam beatíssimæ Vírginis Icónem, solemni pompa extra
+        Spoletinæ ecclésiæ septa delatam intúitus, divini amoris flammam conciperet,
+        simulque Institutum Clericórum a Passióne Jesu amplecti statúeret. Itaque non
+        exíguas difficultates eluctatus, in recessu Morrovallénsi, lúgubrem vestem lætus
+        induit, et Gabriel a Vírgine perdolénte maluit appellári; ad ejusdem gaudiórum et
+        dolórum memóriam perpetuo recoléndam.
+
+
+        In tirocinio, cum regulari observántia et ómnium exercitatióne virtútum cotidie
+        magis eminéret, brevi eo pérvenit, ut absolutæ sanctimoniæ exemplar haberétur non
+        modo a sodálibus, vel provectis, sed étiam ultra cœnobii septa, factus bonus odor
+        Christi in omni loco. Dominicæ passiónis cultor assiduus, in ea meditanda dies
+        noctesque insumebat. In divinam Eucharistiam, quæ ejusdem Passiónis memóriam
+        prodit, incredibili quodam studio ferebátur; qua cum se refíceret, seraphico ardore
+        flagrábat. Nihil autem insígnius quam ejus erga magnam Dei Parentem pietas fuit.
+        Ipsam omni obsequii genere percólere consuevit; sed præsertim confectam
+        afflictámque cruciátibus Jesu tam dolenter contemplari, ut vim lacrimárum
+        profúnderet. Pérdolens Virgo quasi tota ei vitæ rátio fuit, adeptæque ab eo
+        sanctitátis magistra; ita ut inter æquales una fúerit senténtia, ideo excitátum Dei
+        famulum divinitus fuísse, ut cultus Maríæ perdolentis magnum exemplo ejus cáperet
+        increméntum.
+
+
+        Inter ceteras virtútes christianam humilitátem et obœdiéntiam maxime diléxit: nam
+        inter omnes se minimum exístimans, abjectíssima quæque ministeria domus cupide
+        affectabat, et antistitum suórum non modo jussa, sed et optáta diligentíssime
+        perficiebat. Idem, refrenátis sensibus et vitæ asperitáte usus, illibátum retinuit
+        florem virginitátis ac plane mundo crucifixus unice Deo vixit, intima Dómini sui
+        fruítus consuetúdine. Ita brevem vitæ cursum tot virtútibus nobilitátum
+        conficiens, Insulæ in Aprutio, caritátis incendio verius quam vi morbi consumptus,
+        divinæque Matris ope recreatus, placidíssimo éxitu ad Superos evolávit, anno
+        millesimo octingentésimo sexagesimo secundo, ætátis suæ vigesimo quarto. Eum

+        Gabriel, born at Assisi in Umbria of a respectable family, and called Francis in
+        memory of his seraphic fellow-townsman, showed from boyhood an excellent disposition
+        of soul. As a youth, when studying letters at Spoleto, he seemed for a time to be
+        allured by the empty beauty and pomp of the world. But by the gift of the merciful
+        God, who had already called him to the perfection of a Christian life when he had
+        fallen sick, he began to tire of the vanity of the world, and to desire immortal
+        treasures alone. But to quicken his obedience to the call of God, it happened that
+        as he saw the celebrated Image of the Blessed Virgin being carried with solemn pomp
+        outside the precincts of the church of Spoleto, he experienced the flame of divine
+        love, and at the same time decided to enter the Institute of the Clerks of the
+        Passion of Jesus. Therefore, after overcoming no slight difficulties, he joyfully
+        donned the somber habit in the secluded place of Morrovalle, and chose to be called
+        Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows, to recall forever the memory of her joys and griefs.
+
+
+        In the novitiate, day by day he became conspicuous for regular observance and for
+        the exercise of all the virtues, and in a short time he came to be considered a
+        pattern of perfect holiness, not only by his companions and his seniors, but also
+        beyond the confines of the monastery; he became a sweet odour in Christ in every
+        place. An assiduous devotee of the Lord's Passion, he spent days and nights
+        meditating upon it. He was drawn by unbelievable zeal towards the Holy Eucharist, a
+        memorial of that Passion; and when he nourished himself with it, he burned with
+        seraphic ardour. There was nothing more noticeable than his filial piety towards the
+        great Mother of God. He was accustomed to pay her honour for every type of devotion,
+        but especially to contemplate her stricken and afflicted by the sufferings of Jesus,
+        with such sorrow that he shed floods of tears. The sorrowful Virgin was, as it were,
+        the whole reason of his being, and the teacher of the holiness that he had acquired.
+        As a result all his associates shared the one opinion that this servant of God had
+        been inspired from on high so that the cult of St. Mary of Sorrows through his
+        example might receive a great increase.
+
+
+        Among other virtues, he especially loved Christian humility and obedience; for he
+        considered himself the least of all. He therefore strove eagerly to do all the most
+        menial work of the house, and he most diligently performed, not only the direct
+        commands, but even the unexpressed wishes of his superiors. Curbing his senses, and
+        accustoming himself to a life of austerity, he retained unfaded the flower of his
+        virginity, and completely crucified to the world, he lived to God alone, enjoying an
+        intimate familiarity with his Lord. And so, at Isola in the Abruzzi, filling the
+        short span of his life with so many noble virtues, consumed by the fire of charity
+        rather than by disease, and refreshed by the aid of the Mother of God, his soul flew
+        to heaven in a most peaceful journey in the year 1862, at the age of twenty-four.
+        Then, as he had been made illustrious by God through miracles, Pope Pius X added him
+        to the number of the Blessed in heaven. Likewise, the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XV in
+        1920, two hundred years after the foundation of the Institute of the Passion, on the
+        feast of the Ascension of the Lord, decreed the honours of the Saints to the blessed
+        youth; and Pius XI extended his Office and Mass to the Universal Church.

+        poscit sibi non per parábolas, sed aperte, quibus óperum meritis vitam ætérnam
+        cónsequi possit, exponi. Jesus autem dixit ei: Præcepta nosti. Hæc est puerílis
+        innocéntiæ castitas, quæ nobis imitanda propónitur, si regnum Dei volumus intrare.
+        At ille respondens, ait ille: Magister, hæc ómnia observávi a juventúte mea. Non

+        vende et da paupéribus, et habebis thesáurum in cælo, et veni, séquere me.
+        Quicúmque perfectus esse volúerit, debet vendere quæ habet; et non ex parte

+        Jesus saith unto his disciples: Suffer the little children to come unto me, and
+        forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. It is noteworthy that he saith:
+        Of such; not: Of these. That is, he is concerned with conduct, not with age; for the
+        reward is promised to all such as are like unto children, not in age, but in
+        innocence and simplicity; as saith the Apostle: Be not children in understanding;
+        howbeit, in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. Verily I say unto
+        you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not
+        enter therein. A child doth not for long remain angry or remember an injury; he
+        taketh no lustful pleasure in looking at a beautiful woman; he doth not think one
+        thing and say another. In like manner, ye also, unless ye have this innocence and
+        purity of soul, cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. We are commanded to receive the
+        kingdom of God (that is, the teaching of the Gospel) like as children, because they,
+        when learning, do not contradict their teacher, nor adduce reasons and arguments
+        against them, but trustingly accept what they are taught in respectful silence and
+        obedience. And the Lord took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and
+        blessed them. He blesseth the children by taking them up in his arms, to shew that
+        such as are poor in spirit do merit his blessing, grace, and love.
+
+
+        And as he was going forth on his journey, a certain man came running up, and fell
+        on his knees before him, and asked him: Good Master, what shall I do that I may
+        inherit eternal life? Doubtless this seeker after eternal life was one of those who
+        had heard the Lord say that whoso shall not receive the kingdom of God as little
+        child shall not enter therein; and therefore, taking the safer course, he asketh
+        for himself not in parables, but simply and openly, for teaching concerning the
+        meritorious works by which eternal life is to be gained. Whereupon Christ said:
+        Thou knowest the commandments. This is the chastity of childlike innocence, which
+        is proposed for our imitation, if we wish to enter the kingdom of God. But he
+        answering, said unto him: Master, all these have I observed from my youth. This man
+        should not be considered as having asked the Lord with a view to tempting him (as
+        some have thought), or to have lied about his life when he said he had kept the
+        commandments of the law; but that rather he was trying to explain how he had
+        hitherto lived. Because, if he be considered guilty of lies and pretence, it would
+        not have been said of Jesus, who looketh on the secrets of the heart, that he,
+        beholding him, loved him.
+
+
+        For the love of the Lord goeth out to all those who not only keep the commandments
+        of the law, but have regard even for things which are not of strict precept. Which
+        latter things he who came not to destroy the Law and the Prophets, but to fulfill
+        them, showeth forth unto such as would be perfect, saying: Sell whatsoever thou
+        hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come,
+        follow me. Whosoever would be perfect must sell all (not merely in part, as did
+        Ananias and Sapphira), and thereafter give all to the poor, and thus prepare for
+        himself a treasure in the kingdom of heaven. But contempt for riches is not enough
+        to achieve perfection. He must also follow the Saviour, leaving evil and doing
+        good. For it is easier to spurn the world than the will; and many spurn their
+        riches, but fail thereafter to follow the Lord. Whosoever would follow him must be
+        his imitator, and walk in his footsteps. For whoso saith he believeth in Christ
+        ought also to walk as Christ walked.

+        ipso cum aliis astante, primum Deo Sacrum offerret, cælésti favore meruit recreari.
+        Nam Angelus cándida et fulgénti veste indútus, cui in péctore crux rúbei et cærúlei
+        coloris assuta erat, brácchiis cancellátis et super duos captivos ad látera

+        captivos destinari.
+
+
+        Quo vero matúrius in re tanti moménti procéderet, in solitúdinem secessit, ibique
+        divino nutu factum est, ut Felicem Valesium in ipsa erémo jam multis annis degentem
+        repérerit: cum quo ínita societáte, se per triennium in oratióne, et contemplatióne,
+        omniúmque virtútum studio exercuit. Cóntigit autem, ut, dum secum de rebus divinis
+        prope fontem colloqueréntur, cervus ad eos accesserit, crucem inter córnua gerens
+        rúbei et cærúlei coloris. Cumque Felix ob rei novitátem mirarétur, narrávit ei
+        Joánnes visiónem in prima Missa hábitam; et exínde ferventius oratióni incumbéntes,
+        ter in somnis admoniti, Romam proficísci decrevérunt, ut a summo Pontifice novi
+        ordinis pro rediméndis captivis institutiónem impetrarent. Electus fuerat eo témpore
+        Innocentius tertius; qui, illis benígne acceptis, dum secum de re proposita
+        deliberat, in festo sanctæ Agnetis secundo, Laterani intra Missárum solemnia ad
+        sacræ Hostiæ elevatiónem, Angelus ei cándida veste, cruce bicolori, spécie
+        redimentis captivos appáruit. Quo viso, Pontifex institutum approbávit, et novum
+        ordinem sanctíssimæ Trinitátis redemptiónis captivórum vocari jussit, ejusque
+        professóribus albas vestes cum cruce rúbei et cærúlei coloris præbuit.

+        Sic stabilito ordine, sancti fundatores in Gálliam rediérunt, primoque cœnobio

+        John de la Mata, the founder of the Order of the Most Holy Trinity for the Ransom of
+        Prisoners, was born at Faucon, in Provence, and was the child of parents equally
+        distinguished for their rank and their godly life. He went for his education first to
+        Aix and then to Paris. At the University of Paris, where he went through the course
+        of Divinity and took the degree of Doctor, he became eminent for learning and virtue.
+        For this reason the Bishop of Paris ordained him Priest, an honour from which his
+        lowliness caused him to shrink, in the hope that he should induce him to remain at
+        Paris, and be a bright example of wisdom and manners to the students who resorted
+        thither. He offered up the Holy Sacrifice to God for the first time in the private
+        Chapel of the Bishop, and in the presence of that Prelate and diverse other persons.
+        In the midst of the ceremony, a vision from God appeared to John. There appeared to
+        him an angel, clad in raiment white and glistering; having sewn on his breast a
+        cross of red and blue. His arms were crossed before him, and his hands were upon the
+        heads of two slaves, one a Christian and the other a Moor. And immediately the man of
+        God was in the spirit, and knew that he was called to the work of ransoming bondsmen
+        from the power of the unbelievers.
+
+
+        That he might set himself with due forethought to the carrying out of his work, he
+        withdrew into a certain desert, and there, by the will of God, he found Felix de
+        Valois, who had already spent many years in that place. With him he joined company,
+        and they passed three years together in continual prayer, meditation, and all
+        spiritual exercises. It came to pass, one day, when they were sitting on the bank of
+        a spring, that there came to them a stag having between his horns a cross of red and
+        blue. Felix cried out in wonder at that sight, and John then told him of the vision
+        that had appeared to him when he was saying his first Mass. Thenceforth they gave
+        themselves with redoubled fervour to prayer, and, being three times warned in
+        sleep, they determined to go to Rome, and pray the Pope to institute an Order for the
+        ransom of prisoners. They arrived at the time of the election of Innocent III., who
+        received them courteously, and entertained in his mind their petition. While he was
+        in consideration, he went to the Lateran Cathedral, on the second Feast of St.
+        Agnes, and there, while Mass was being solemnly sung, at the moment of the
+        elevation of the Sacred Host, there appeared to him an angel, clad in raiment white
+        and glistering, having sewn on his breast a cross of red and blue, and making as
+        though he would free prisoners. Thereupon the Pope founded the Order, commanding
+        that it should be called the Order of the Most Holy Trinity for the Ransom of
+        prisoners, and that they who professed in it should be clad in white raiment,
+        having sewn on their breasts a cross of red and blue.
+
+
+        The Order being thus established, the holy Founders returned into France, and built
+        their first Convent at Cerfroid, in the diocese of Meaux. Felix remained in charge of
+        this house, and John went back to Rome with several companions. To them Innocent
+        gave the house, Church, and hospital of St. Thomas de Formis on the Coelian Mount,
+        with great endowments and property. Moreover he gave them a letter of introduction to
+        Miramolin, King of Morocco, and they began with bright hopes the work of ransoming
+        prisoners. John next betook himself to Spain, great part of which was then in the
+        hands of the Saracens, and stirred up the hearts of the kings, princes, and all the
+        faithful to have pity on slaves and the poor. He built Convents, founded Hospitals,
+        and ransomed many bondsmen, to the great gain of souls. At last he returned to Rome,
+        still busied in good works, but worn out by unceasing toil, and weakened by
+        sickness. As he drew near the end of his earthly pilgrimage, his burning love for God
+        and for his neighbour suffered no diminution. He called together his brethren, and
+        earnestly exhorted them to go on with that work of ransom which had been pointed out
+        to them from heaven, and then fell asleep in the Lord, on the 21st day of December,
+        1213. His body was buried with due honour in the Church of St. Thomas de Formis.

+        Our lights burn when, by good works, we give bright example to our neighbour;
+        concerning which works the Lord saith Let your light so shine before men, that they
+        may see your good works, and glorify your Father Which is in heaven.
+
+
+        Here, then, are two commandments, to gird our loins about, and to keep our lights
+        burning the cleanness of purity in our body, and the light of the truth in our
+        works. Whoso hath the one and not the other, pleaseth not thereby our Redeemer; that
+        is, he pleaseth Him not which doth good works, but bridleth not himself from the
+        pollutions of lust, neither he which is eminent in chastity, but exerciseth not
+        himself in good works. Neither is chastity a great thing without good works, nor
+        good works anything without chastity. And if any man do both, it remaineth that he
+        must look by hope toward our Fatherland above, and not have for his reason
+        wherethrough he turneth himself away from vice, the love of honour in this present
+        world.
+
+
+        And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from
+        the wedding that, when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
+        The Lord cometh at the hour of judgment He knocketh when, by the pains of sickness,
+        He biddeth us know that death is nigh. To Him open we immediately, if we receive Him
+        in love. Whoso feareth to leave this body, will not open to the Judge when He
+        knocketh, for he dreadeth to see that Judge, Whom he knoweth that he hath despised.
+        But whosoever knoweth that his hope and works are built upon a good foundation, when
+        he heareth the Judge knock, openeth to Him immediately, for to such an one that
+        coming is blessed, yea, when the hour of death is at hand, such an one haileth with
+        gladness a glorious reward.
