+        Soter, Fundis in Campánia natus, sancívit ne sacræ vírgines vasa sacra et pallas attingerent,
+        neve thuris ministerio in ecclésia uteréntur. Idem státuit ut Christi corpus in Cœna Dómini
+        sumerétur ab ómnibus, iis exceptis, qui propter grave peccátum id fácere prohiberéntur.
+        Sedit in pontificatu annos tres, menses undecim, dies decem et octo. Martyrio coronátur sub
+        Marco Aurelio imperatóre, et in cœmeterio, quod póstea Callísti dictum est, sepelitur; more
+        majórum mense Decembri creátis presbyteris decem et octo, diáconis novem, epíscopis per
+        diversa loca undecim.

+        Soter, a countryman of Fondi in Campania, succeeded the holy martyr Anicetus. It was he who
+        ordained that nuns should not touch the sacred vessels and linen of the Altar, nor serve
+        with the incense in the Church. He ordained likewise, that on the anniversary of the Lord's
+        Supper, every one should receive the Body of Christ, except those who were forbidden to do
+        so on account of grievous sin. He sat as Pope three years, eleven months, and eighteen days.
+        He was crowned with martyrdom under the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, and was buried after the
+        manner of them that had gone before him, in the Cemetery, which was afterwards called that
+        of St. Calixtus, having ordained in the month of December, after the manner of his
+        predecessors, eighteen Priests, nine Deacons, and eleven Bishops for diverse places.

+        Cajus Dálmata ex genere Diocletiáni imperatóris, constítuit ut his ordinum et honórum
+        gradibus in Ecclésia ad episcopátum ascenderétur: Ostiarii, Lectóris, Exorcistæ, Acólythi,
+        Subdiáconi, Diáconi, Presbýteri. Hic Diocletiáni crudelitátem in Christiános fúgiens,
+        aliquámdiu in spelúnca delituit; verum octo post annis una cum Gabino fratre martyrii corónam
+        consecutus est, cum sedísset annos duodecim, menses quatuor, dies quinque; creátis mense
+        Decembri presbyteris vigintiquinque, diáconis octo, epíscopis quinque. Sepultus est in

+        Gaius was a Dalmatian and a kinsman of the Emperor Diocletian, and succeeded holy Eutychian.
+        It was he who ordained that the following should be the order of degrees in the Church
+        through which all should pass before they be made Bishop: first, Doorkeeper; second, Reader;
+        third, Exorcist; fourth, Acolyte; fifth, Subdeacon; sixth, Deacon; seventh, Priest. Caius
+        fled from the cruelties practiced by Diocletian against the Christians, and lay hid for a
+        while in a cave, but after eight years he and his brother Gabinus won the crown of
+        martyrdom. At that time he had sat in the chair of Peter twelve years, four months, and five
+        days, and had ordained in the month of December twenty-five Priests, eight Deacons, and
+        five Bishops. He was buried in the Cemetery of Calixtus. It was Urban VIII who renewed the
+        memorial of him in the city, rebuilt his Church, which had been in ruins, and distinguished
+        it by making it one of those whence the Cardinals take their titles, and of those which are
+        called "Stations," and enriching it with the relics of the Saint.

+        Dignum et congruum est, fratres, ut post lætítiam Paschæ, quam in Ecclésia celebrávimus,

+        Dearly beloved brethren, it is very meet and right that after the gladness of Easter, which
+        we have celebrated in the Church, we should mingle our own joy with the joy of the holy
+        Martyrs; yea, that we should tell of the glory of the Lord's rising again, to them that have
+        been made partakers of the Lord's sufferings. It truly must needs be that they which have
+        been partakers of His sufferings, should be also of His joy. For thus saith the blessed
+        Apostle: "As ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation."
+        (2 Cor. i. 7.) And again: "If we suffer, we shall also reign with Him." (2 Tim. ii. 12.) He,
+        therefore, that endureth sorrow for Christ, must needs also have glory with Christ.

+        Francíscus Paulæ, quod est Calábriæ óppidum, loco húmili natus est; quem paréntes, cum diu
+        prole caruíssent, voto facto, beáti Francísci précibus suscepérunt. Is adoléscens divíno
+        ardóre succénsus in erémum secéssit, ubi annis sex, victu ásperam, sed meditatiónibus
+        cæléstibus suávem vitam duxit. Sed cum virtútum ejus fama lóngius manáret, multíque ad eum
+        pietátis stúdio concúrrerent, fratérnæ caritátis causa e solitúdine egréssus, ecclésiam
+        prope Paulam ædificávit, ibíque prima sui órdinis fundaménta jecit.
+
+
+        Erat in eo mirífica loquéndi grátia: perpétuam virginitátem servávit: humilitátem sic cóluit,
+        ut se ómnium mínimum díceret, suósque alúmnos Mínimos appellári volúerit. Rudi amíctu, nudis

+        quo vesci in Quadragésima licet: quam consuetúdinem, ut fratres sui toto anni témpore
+        retinérent, quarto eos voto adstrínxit.

+        quod a nautis rejéctus, Sicíliæ fretum strato super flúctibus pállio cum sócio transmísit.
+        Multa étiam futúra prophético spíritu prædíxit. A Ludovíco undécimo Francórum rege expetítus,
+        magnóque in honóre est hábitus. Dénique annum primum et nonagésimum agens, Turónis migrávit
+        ad Dominum: cujus corpus dies úndecim insepúltum, ita incorrúptum permánsit, ut suávem étiam

+        This Francis was born of humble parents at Paola, a town in Calabria. His parents, who had
+        long been childless, obtained him, after making a vow, by the prayers of blessed Francis.
+        While he was yet a lad, the love of God moved him to withdraw into a desert place, where he
+        lived for six years, hardly as to the body, but sumptuously in meditation on things
+        heavenly. Nevertheless, when the fame of his holy life was noised abroad, and many betook
+        themselves to him, that they might learn godliness, he was drawn out of the desert by love
+        to his neighbour, and built a church near Paola, wherein he laid the first foundations of
+        his Order.
+
+
+        In his words there was a wonderful charm; he kept his virginity always inviolate; he was so
+        great a lover of lowliness that he used to call himself the last of all, and would that his
+        disciples should be called the Minimi, which is, being interpreted, the Least of the
+        brethren. His raiment was coarse; he went always bare-footed; and he slept on the ground.
+        The extreme smallness of the amount of food which he took was extraordinary. He ate only
+        once a day, and that after sunset. Then he took only bread and water, with scarcely any of
+        such condiment as is allowed in Lent. He bound his disciples by a fourth vow, added to those
+        of Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience, to observe the same rule of eating as himself.
+
+
+        It was the will of God to make the holiness of His servant manifest by many miracles. The
+        most notorious of these is that on one occasion when some seamen refused to take him over
+        the Straits of Messina, he spread his cloak upon the sea, and crossed over on it with his
+        companion. In the spirit of prophecy he foretold many things to come. Louis XI, King of
+        France, held him in great worship, and bade him to his court. At last, at Tours, in the
+        ninety-first year of his age, he departed hence to be ever with the Lord: his body remained
+        unburied for eleven days after his death, but it not only showed no signs of corruption but
+        even gave forth a sweet savour. Pope Leo X caused him to be numbered among the Saints.
