8 of February's 10 SanctiM-track saints authored (2 left unsourced — Common-only, no proper text in the source). Two more turned out to be missed pre-1955-pool candidates rather than genuine SanctiM cases (their date's SanctiM file belongs to a different saint sharing the date). Also settles a convention for bare Gospel incipits followed by a real homily: author the homily alone as isGospel:false rather than including the incipit line under isGospel:true.

The solemn Feast of today received from our forefathers the name of that of St. Peter's
|
||||||
|
Chair, because there is a tradition that it was on this day that Peter, first of the
|
||||||
|
Apostles, was enthroned in a Bishop's Chair. Rightly, therefore, do the Churches observe
|
||||||
|
the anniversary of that Chair, the right to which the Apostle received for the salvation of
|
||||||
|
the Churches from the Lord of the Churches Himself, with the words: Thou art Peter, and
|
||||||
|
upon this rock I will build My Church.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It was the Lord Himself Who called Peter the foundation of the Church, and therefore it is
|
||||||
|
right that the Church should reverence this foundation whereon her mighty structure riseth.
|
||||||
|
Justly is it written in the Psalm which we have just heard: Let them exalt him in the
|
||||||
|
congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders. Blessed be God,
|
||||||
|
Who hath commanded that the Blessed Apostle Peter should be exalted in the congregation!
|
||||||
|
Worthy to be honoured by the Church is that foundation from which her goodly towers rise,
|
||||||
|
pointing to heaven!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the honour which is this day paid to the inauguration of the first Bishop's throne, an
|
||||||
|
honour is paid to the office of all Bishops. The Churches testify one to another, that, the
|
||||||
|
greater the Church's dignity, the greater the reverence due to her priests. While I confess
|
||||||
|
how rightly godly custom hath exalted this Feast in the estimation of all the Churches, the
|
||||||
|
more do I wonder at the growth of that unhealthy error which at this day causeth some
|
||||||
|
unbelievers to lay food and wine upon the graves of the dead, as if souls once rid of the
|
||||||
|
body had any longer any need of bodily refreshment.

Apóstolos Dóminus, quid de se hómines opinéntur, intérrogat: et tamdiu sermo
|
||||||
|
respondéntium commúnis est, quámdiu humánæ intellegéntiæ ambigúitas explicátur. At ubi
|
||||||
|
quid hábeat sensus discipulórum exígitur, primus est in Dómini confessióne, qui primus est
|
||||||
|
in apostólica dignitáte. Qui cum dixísset: Tu es Christus Fílius Dei vivi: respóndit ei
|
||||||
|
Jesus: Beátus es Simon Bar-Jona, quia caro et sanguis non revelávit tibi, sed Pater meus,
|
||||||
|
qui in cælis est. Id est, Ideo beátus es, quia Pater meus te dócuit: nec terréna opínio te
|
||||||
|
feféllit, sed inspirátio cæléstis instrúxit: et non caro et sanguis, sed ille me tibi,
|
||||||
|
cujus sum unigénitus Fílius, indicávit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Et ego, inquit, dico tibi: hoc est, sicut Pater meus tibi manifestávit divinitátem meam,
|
||||||
|
ita et ego tibi notam fácio excelléntiam tuam, quia tu es Petrus: id est, cum ego sim
|
||||||
|
inviolábilis petra, ego lapis anguláris, qui fácio útraque unum, ego fundaméntum præter
|
||||||
|
quod nemo potest áliud pónere: tamen tu quoque petra es, quia mea virtúte solidáris, ut
|
||||||
|
quæ mihi potestáte sunt própria, sint tibi mecum participatióne commúnia. Et super hanc
|
||||||
|
petram ædificábo Ecclésiam meam, et portæ ínferi non prævalébunt advérsus eam. Super hanc,
|
||||||
|
inquit, fortitúdinem ætérnum éxstruam templum: et Ecclésiæ meæ cælo inserénda sublímitas,
|
||||||
|
in hujus fídei firmitáte consúrget.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Hanc confessiónem portæ ínferi non tenébunt, mortis víncula non ligábunt: vox enim ista
|
||||||
|
vox vitæ est. Et sicut confessóres suos in cæléstia próvehit, ita negatóres ad inférna
|
||||||
|
demérgit. Propter quod dicit beatíssimo Petro: Tibi dabo claves regni cælórum: Et
|
||||||
|
quæcúmque ligáveris super terram, erunt ligáta et in cælis: et quæcúmque sólveris super
|
||||||
|
terram, erunt solúta et in cælis. Transívit quidem étiam in álios Apóstolos vis
|
||||||
|
potestátis istíus, et ad omnes Ecclésiæ príncipes decréti hujus constitútio commeávit:
|
||||||
|
sed non frustra uni commendátur, quod ómnibus intimátur. Petro enim ídeo hoc singuláriter
|
||||||
|
créditur, quia cunctis Ecclésiæ rectóribus Petri forma præpónitur. Manet ergo Petri
|
||||||

privilégium, ubicúmque ex ipsíus fertur æquitáte judícium. Nec nímia est vel sevéritas vel

The Lord asked His disciples Who men said that He was, and their answers were human as
|
||||||
|
long as they were the answers of human reason, unilluminated by Divine light. At last, when
|
||||||
|
the glimmerings of earthly conjecture were spoken, he whose Apostleship is the first in
|
||||||
|
dignity, was the first to confess his Lord. And Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art the
|
||||||
|
Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him: Blessed art thou,
|
||||||
|
Simon Bar-Jona, for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but My Father Which is
|
||||||
|
in heaven. That is to say, For this cause art thou blessed, because My Father Himself hath
|
||||||
|
taught thee; the opinions of men have not beguiled thee, the voices of angels have not
|
||||||
|
taught thee, not flesh and blood, but He, Whose Only begotten Son I am, hath revealed Me
|
||||||
|
unto thee.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Thus saith the Lord unto Simon Peter: And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter. That
|
||||||
|
is to say, Even as My Father hath revealed unto thee concerning Me that I am God, even so
|
||||||
|
now will I also reveal unto thee that thou art Peter; I am the sure Rock of defence, the
|
||||||
|
Corner Stone, Who make both one, I am the Foundation, beside Which other can no man lay,
|
||||||
|
and thou also art a rock, in My Strength made hard, and those things whereof I by right am
|
||||||
|
Lord, into thy hand do I give them, that thou mayst bear rule over them, for Me, and with
|
||||||
|
Me. And upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail
|
||||||
|
against it. Upon this strength of thine, whereof I am the Strength, I will build My eternal
|
||||||
|
temple, and upon the truth of thy confession of Me I will make to rise My glorious Church
|
||||||
|
whose spires shall pierce to heaven.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Against this confession the gates of hell shall never prevail, neither shall the bonds of
|
||||||
|
death take hold upon it. Thus saith He That is faithful and true. And as this confession
|
||||||
|
hath power to lift up to heaven them that make it, so is it able to thrust down to hell them
|
||||||
|
that gainsay it. Wherefore it is said unto the most blessed Peter: And I will give unto thee
|
||||||
|
the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound
|
||||||
|
in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven. This power
|
||||||
|
passed indeed to the other Apostles also; this the Lord's will had effect in them; but it
|
||||||
|
is not in vain that it is written that that was given to one which passed from him to all.
|
||||||
|
To Peter alone were the keys given, and Peter is set as the pattern for all them that bear
|
||||||
|
rule in the Church to follow. There remaineth therefore the right of Peter, wheresoever his
|
||||||
|
judgment decreeth justice. Neither is there anything too hard, or too lax, where there is
|
||||||
|
nothing bound and nothing loosed, save when Peter bindeth or looseth.

The Maiden Agatha was a Sicilian of noble birth. The citizens of Palermo and Catania
|
||||||
|
dispute as to which city had the honour of being her birthplace. It was at Catania that,
|
||||||
|
during the persecution under the Emperor Decius, she won the crown of a glorious
|
||||||
|
martyrdom. She was equally celebrated for her beauty and her chastity, and Quintianus,
|
||||||
|
Praetor of Sicily, conceived a passion for her. He tried every sort of device to overcome
|
||||||
|
her modesty, and when he found it impossible to make her consent to his wishes, he caused
|
||||||
|
her to be arrested on a charge of Christian superstition, and handed over to a woman named
|
||||||
|
Aphrodisia to be corrupted. The company, however, of this woman had no effect in shaking
|
||||||
|
her constancy in the Christian worship, nor her settled determination to preserve her
|
||||||
|
purity. Aphrodisia therefore reported to Quintianus that she was only throwing away her
|
||||||
|
pains on Agatha. He ordered her to be brought before him. Thou, said he, art the daughter
|
||||||
|
of a noble family; dost thou feel no shame in living the degraded and slavish life of a
|
||||||
|
Christian? Agatha answered him, The lowliness and bondage of a Christian are far nobler
|
||||||
|
than the estate and pride of a king.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Then the Praetor, being incensed against her, gave her the alternative of either
|
||||||
|
sacrificing to the gods, or being submitted to the torture; and as she remained firm in
|
||||||
|
the faith, she was buffeted and sent back to prison. The next day she was brought forth,
|
||||||
|
and, because her resolution was still unshaken, she was stretched on the rack and tortured
|
||||||
|
with pieces of white-hot metal. Then her breasts were cut off. When Agatha received this
|
||||||
|
injury she cried out to Quintianus, Cruel tyrant, art thou not ashamed to do this to me,
|
||||||
|
having thyself sucked at a mother's breast? She was remanded again to prison and put in
|
||||||
|
irons. That night an old man, who called himself an Apostle of Christ, came to her, and
|

healed her wounds. The following day she was brought for the last time before the Praetor.
|
||||||
|
Her constancy was unmoved, and she was rolled on sharp potsherds and live embers.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At that time the whole city was shaken with a great earthquake, and two of the Praetor's
|
||||||
|
dearest friends, Silvinus and Falconius, were killed by falling walls. The townspeople were
|
||||||
|
in an uproar, and Quintianus, in fear of a riot, ordered Agatha, who was half dead, to be
|
||||||
|
carried back to prison quietly. Then she made the following prayer: O Lord, Who hast been
|
||||||
|
my Keeper from my childhood, Who hast taken from me all love for this present world, Who
|
||||||
|
hast strengthened me so that I am more than conqueror over the cruelty of the executioners,
|
||||||
|
receive my spirit, and with these words she passed to heaven. She finished her testimony
|
||||||
|
on the 5th day of February. Her body was buried by the Christians.

Ignatius was the third Bishop of Antioch after the Apostle Peter. When Trajan stirred up
|
||||||
|
his persecution, he was condemned to be devoured by wild beasts, and sent to Rome in
|
||||||
|
chains. When on his journey thither he arrived at Smyrna, where Polycarp, the disciple of
|
||||||
|
John, was Bishop, he wrote an Epistle to the Ephesians, another to the Magnesians, a third
|
||||||
|
to the Trallians, and a fourth to the Romans, and after leaving Smyrna, he addressed a
|
||||||
|
further Epistle to the Philadelphians, and another to the Smyrnians, along with a private
|
||||||
|
Epistle to Polycarp, to whose care he commended the Church of Antioch. In this last he
|
||||||
|
quoteth a passage regarding the Person of Christ from the Gospel, which I have recently
|
||||||
|
translated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is fitting that, as we have made mention of a man of so much importance, we should also
|
||||||
|
note briefly the Epistle which he addressed to the Romans. I am on my way, saith he, from
|
||||||
|
Syria to Rome, and am already fighting with beasts on sea and on land all the way. I may
|
||||||
|
say I am chained day and night to ten leopards, for indeed the soldiers, who have charge of
|
||||||
|
me, are no better. The more courteous I am to them, the worse they use me. But still their
|
||||||
|
wickedness is good schooling for me, though I know that my mere sufferings cannot in
|
||||||
|
themselves gain me justification. I earnestly wish for the beasts which are to devour me;
|
||||||
|
at any rate, I pray they may put me out of pain quickly, and fly on me willingly, that I be
|
||||||
|
not like some other Martyrs, whose bodies the animals have refused to touch. If I find that
|
||||||
|
they will not come on, I will run at them as quick as I can, to make them devour me. Let me
|
||||||
|
be, my little children I know what is good for me.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I feel now that I am beginning to be Christ's disciple; I desire none of those things which
|
||||||
|
are seen, if so be I may find Christ Jesus. I care not that there come upon me fire, or
|
||||||
|
cross, or wild beasts, or breaking of my bones, or sundering of my members, or destruction
|
||||||
|
of my whole body, yea, or all the torments of the devil, if only so be I may win Christ.
|
||||||
|
When he was brought condemned to the theatre, and heard the roaring of the beasts which
|
||||||
|
were to devour him, he felt so strong an eagerness to suffer, that he cried out I am
|
||||||
|
Christ's wheat, and so let the beasts' teeth be my mill, that I may be ground, and be found
|
||||||
|
to make good bread. He suffered in the eleventh year of Trajan. What was left of his body
|
||||||
|
lieth at Antioch, in the graveyard outside the gate which leadeth toward Daphne.

Ipse Dóminus Jesus erat granum mortificándum et multiplicándum; mortificándum

infidelitate Judæórum, multiplicándum fide populórum. Jam vero exhortans ad passiónis
|
||||||

suæ sectanda vestígia, Qui amat, inquit, ánimam suam, perdet eam. Quod duobus modis
|
||||||
|
intelligi potest. Qui amat, perdet; id est, si amas, perdes. Si cupis vitam tenére in
|
||||||
|
Christo, noli mortem timére pro Christo. Item alio modo: Qui amat ánimam suam, perdet
|
||||||
|
eam; noli amare, ne perdas; noli amare in hac vita, ne perdas in æterna vita.
|
||||||
|
|

Hoc autem, quod posterius dixi, magis habére vidétur evangélicus sensus; séquitur enim:
|
||||||
|
Et qui odit ánimam suam in hoc mundo, in vitam ætérnam custódit eam. Ergo, quod supra
|
||||||
|
dictum est, Qui amat, subintellígitur in hoc mundo, ipse útique perdet; qui autem odit,
|
||||||
|
útique in hoc mundo, in vitam ætérnam ipse custódit eam. Magna et mira senténtia,

quemádmodum sit hóminis in ánimam suam amor ut pereat, ódium ne pereat. Si male

|
amáveris, tunc odísti; si bene óderis, tunc amásti. Felices, qui odérunt custodiéndo, ne

|
perdant amándo.

|

Sed vide ne tibi subrépat ut teípsum velis interímere, sic intelligendo, quod debes

odisse in hoc mundo ánimam tuam. Hinc enim quidam malígni atque perversi hómines, et in
|
||||||
|
seipsis crudeliores et sceleratiores homicídæ flammis se donant, aquis se præfócant,
|
||||||
|
præcipítio se collídunt et pereunt. Hoc Christus non docuit; immo étiam diabolo
|
||||||
|
præcipitium suggerénti respóndit: Redi retro, sátana: scriptum est, Non tentábis
|
||||||
|
Dóminum, Deum tuum. Petro autem dixit, signíficans qua morte clarificatúrus erat Deum:
|
||||||
|
cum esses júnior, cingébas te, et ambulabas quo volébas; cum autem senúeris, alter te
|
||||||
|
cinget et feret quo tu non vis. Ubi satis expressit, non a seipso, sed ab alio debére

occídi, qui vestígia sequitur Christi.

The Lord Jesus was Himself a corn of wheat that was to die and bring forth much fruit; to
|
||||||
|
die by the unbelief of the Jews, and to bring forth much fruit in the faith of the
|
||||||
|
Gentiles. He, exhorting men to follow His steps, saith He that loveth his life shall lose
|
||||||
|
it. Now, these words may be understood in two ways. First: he that loveth his life shall
|
||||||
|
lose it, that is, If thou love life, thou wilt lose it; if thou wilt live for ever in
|
||||||
|
Christ, refuse not to die for Christ. Or secondly: he that loveth his life shall lose it;
|
||||||
|
love not then that which thou shalt lose; love not this present life, so that thou be
|
||||||
|
thereby in jeopardy of losing life eternal.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
What this second interpretation is the meaning of the Gospel appeareth most probably from
|
||||||
|
the words which follow: And he that hateth his life in this world, shall keep it unto life
|
||||||
|
eternal. From which we may suppose the sense of the first words to be: He that loveth his
|
||||||
|
life in this world shall lose it unto life eternal. This is a great and marvellous saying,
|
||||||
|
showing how a man may so love life as to lose life, and so hate life as to keep life. If
|
||||||
|
thou love it too well, then dost thou hate it; if thou hate it with an holy hatred, then
|
||||||
|
dost thou love it. Blessed are they that, lest they should so love it as to lose it, so
|
||||||
|
hate it as to keep it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Beware lest thou take these words He that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto
|
||||||
|
life eternal as some do, for an approval of suicide. Some evil and perverse men, bloody and
|
||||||
|
guilty murderers of themselves, do indeed throw themselves into the fire, drown themselves
|
||||||
|
in water, and cast themselves down precipices, and so perish. This is not the teaching of
|
||||||
|
Christ, Who, when the devil would have Him cast Himself down from an high place, answered
|
||||||
|
Get thee behind Me, Satan. It is written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Who also
|
||||||
|
said to Peter, signifying by what death he should glorify God: When thou wast young thou
|
||||||
|
girdedst thyself and walkedst whither thou wouldest; but when thou shalt be old, another
|
||||||
|
shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not. From which it is evident that he
|
||||||
|
that would follow Christ's footsteps, must be slain, not by himself, but by another.

Come unto Me, all ye that labour! And wherefore labour we all, but because we are frail,

sickly, dying creatures, burdened with earthen vessels which distress us? But if these

fleshly vessels be distressful, let the open expanse of love be free and wide. Come unto

Me, all ye that labour! and why? That we may labour no more. His promise is an instant

promise, for He calleth such as are labouring. Perchance they will ask Him what shall be
|
||||||
|
their reward? And I, saith He, will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of me,
|
||||||
|
not how to make the world, not how to create all things visible and invisible, not to work

wonders in the earth, nor to raise the dead, but for I am meek and lowly in heart.

Wilt thou be great? Begin by being little. Dost thou think to raise up a lofty building?
|
||||||

Then lay the foundations thereof in lowliness. The greater soever, and the more massy, be
|
||||||
|
that which any man thinketh to build, so much the deeper doth he dig his foundation. And
|
||||||
|
when the house is built, it towereth heavenward; but he which layeth the foundation goeth

|
down into the earth. The building, therefore, is low before it is high, and, after it is
|
||||||
|
low, it riseth high to the roof.

|
|
||||||

What is the roof of the house on which we labour? Whither do its spires rise? I answer you

|
at once; to the presence of God. You see how high it is, yea, what it is to see God. He
|

|
that will, understandeth what I say, and he heareth. What is promised you is to see God,
|
||||||
|
God, the True, God, the Supreme. Blessed is he who seeth Him by Whom he is seen. Such as

Romuáldus, Ravénnæ, Sérgio patre, nóbili génere natus, adoléscens in propínquum
|
||||||
|
monastérium Classénse pœniténtiæ causa secéssit: ubi religiósi hóminis sermóne ad
|
||||||
|
pietátis stúdium veheméntius incénsus, viso étiam semel et íterum per noctem in ecclésia
|
||||||
|
beáto Apollinári, quod Dei servus illi futúrum promíserat, mónachus effícitur. Mox ad
|
||||||
|
Marínum, vitæ sanctitáte ac severióre disciplína in fínibus Venetórum eo témpore
|
||||||
|
célebrem, se cóntulit, ut ad arctam et sublímem perfectiónis viam eo magístro ac duce

Multis sátanæ insídiis et hóminum invídia oppugnátus, tanto humílior se assídue
|

jejúniis et oratiónibus exercébat, et rerum cæléstium meditatióne, vim lacrimárum
|
||||||

|
||||||

apud príncipes et reges in honóre fuit; multíque ejus consílio, mundi illécebris abjéctis,
|
||||||
|
solitúdinem petiérunt. Martýrii quoque cupiditáte flagrávit, cujus causa dum in
|
||||||
|
Pannóniam proficíscitur, morbo, quo afflictabátur cum progrederétur, levabátur cum
|
||||||
|
recéderet, revérti cógitur.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
In vita et post mortem miráculis clarus, spíritu étiam prophetíæ non cáruit. Scalam a
|
||||||
|
terra cælum pertingéntem, in similitúdinem Jacob Patriárchæ, per quam hómines in veste
|
||||||
|
cándida ascendébant et descendébant, per visum conspéxit; eóque Camaldulénses mónachos,
|
||||||
|
quorum institúti auctor fuit, designári mirabíliter agnóvit. Dénique cum annos centum et
|
||||||
|
vigínti ágeret, et centum ipsos in summa vitæ asperitáte Deo servísset, ad eum migrávit,
|
||||||
|
anno salútis millésimo vigésimo séptimo. Ejus corpus quinquénnio postquam sepúltum
|
||||||
|
fúerat, íntegrum repértum, Fabriáni in ecclésia sui órdinis honorífice cónditum est.

The holy Abbot Romuald was the son of one Sergius, of a noble family of Ravenna. While he
|
||||||
|
was still very young, he went to a neighbouring monastery at Classis to do penance. While
|
||||||
|
he was there he heard a discourse by a monk, which stirred him up strongly to aim at
|
||||||
|
godliness of living; and he had afterwards in the Church by night two visions in which the
|
||||||
|
blessed servant of God Apollinaris foretold to him that he should become a monk himself.
|
||||||
|
He accordingly did so; and soon afterwards betook himself to one Marinus, whose holy life
|
||||||
|
and strict discipline were then much noised about in all the coasts of the Venetians, that
|
||||||
|
he might by his teaching and guidance attain towards the hard and lofty point of
|
||||||
|
perfection.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The more he was assailed by the wiles of Satan and the unkindness of men, the more did he
|
||||||
|
exercise himself in lowliness, with continual fasting and prayer, and rejoice in thinking
|
||||||
|
of heavenly things, with abundance of tears. And all the while he bore so bright a face as
|
||||||
|
gladdened all who looked on him. He was held in great honour by princes and kings, and his
|
||||||
|
counsel moved many to leave the blandishments of the world and withdraw to the desert. He
|
||||||
|
had such a burning desire to obtain the crown of martyrdom that he set out for Pannonia on
|
||||||
|
purpose to seek it, but, falling into sickness whenever he went forward though growing
|
||||||
|
strong again whenever he drew back, he behoved to return home.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
God worked miracles by him both during his life and after his death, and likewise gave him
|
||||||
|
the gift of prophecy. Like the Patriarch Jacob, he saw a ladder reaching from earth to
|
||||||
|
heaven, and men in white garments ascending and descending upon it, in whom he marvellously
|
||||||
|
knew were represented the monks of the Camaldolese Institute, of which he was the founder.
|
||||||
|
At the age of 120 years, of which he had spent 100 in serving God in great hardness, he
|
||||||
|
passed into His Presence, in the year of Salvation 1027. Five years after his death his
|
||||||
|
body was found incorrupt, and laid in a magnificent grave in the Church of his order at
|
||||||
|
Fabriano.

Scholástica, venerábilis patris Benedícti soror, omnipoténti Dómino ab ipso infántiæ
|
||||||
|
témpore dedicáta, ad eum semel per annum veníre consuéverat; ad quam vir Dei non longe
|
||||||
|
extra jánuam in possessióne monastérii descendébat. Quadam vero die venit ex more, atque
|
||||||
|
ad eam, cum discípulis venerábilis ejus descéndit frater; qui totum diem in Dei láudibus
|
||||||
|
sacrísque collóquiis ducéntes, incumbéntibus jam noctis ténebris, simul accepérunt
|
||||||
|
cibum. Cumque adhuc ad mensam sedérent, et inter sacra collóquia tárdior se hora
|
||||||
|
protráheret, éadem sanctimoniális fémina soror ejus eum rogávit, dicens: Quæso te, ut
|
||||||
|
ista nocte me non déseras, ut usque mane de cæléstis vitæ gáudiis loquámur. Cui ille
|
||||||
|
respóndit: Quid est quod lóqueris, soror? manére extra cellam nullátenus possum. Tanta
|
||||||
|
vero erat cæli serénitas, ut nulla in áëre nubes appareret. Sanctimoniális autem fémina,
|
||||||
|
cum verba fratris negántis pósuit, et caput in mánibus omnipoténtem Dóminum rogatúra
|
||||||
|
declinávit. Cumque leváret de mensa caput, tanta coruscatiónis et tonítrui virtus, tántaque
|
||||||
|
inundátio plúviæ erúpit, ut neque venerábilis Benedíctus, neque fratres, qui cum eo áderant,
|
||||||
|
extra loci limen, quo conséderant, pedem movére potúerint.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Sanctimoniális quippe fémina caput in mánibus declínans, lacrimárum flúvium in mensam
|
||||||
|
fúderat, per quas serenitátem áëris ad plúviam traxit. Nec paulo tárdius post oratiónem
|
||||||
|
inundátio illa secúta est; sed tanta fuit conveniéntia oratiónis et inundatiónis, ut de
|
||||||
|
mensa caput jam cum tonítruo leváret; quátenus unum idémque esset moméntum, et leváre
|
||||||
|
caput, et plúviam depónere. Tunc vir Dei inter corúscos et tonítruos atque ingéntis plúviæ
|
||||||
|
inundatiónem, videns se ad monastérium non posse remeáre, cœpit cónqueri contristátus,
|
||||||
|
dicens: Parcat tibi omnípotens Deus, soror: quid est quod fecísti? Cui illa respóndit:
|
||||||
|
Ecce rogávi te et audíre me noluísti; rogávi Deum meum, et audívit me: modo ergo, si
|
||||||
|
potes, egrédere et, me dimíssa, ad monastérium recéde. Ipse autem exíre extra tectum non
|
||||||
|
valens, qui remanére sponte nóluit in loco, mansit invítus. Sicque factum est, ut totam
|
||||||
|
noctem pervígilem dúcerent, atque per sacra spiritális vitæ collóquia, sese vicária
|
||||||
|
relatióne satiárent.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Cumque die áltero éadem venerábilis fémina ad cellam própriam recessísset, vir Dei ad
|
||||||
|
monastérium rédiit. Cum ecce post tríduum, in cella consístens, elevátis in áëra óculis
|
||||||
|
vidit ejúsdem soróris suæ ánimam de córpore egréssam in colúmbæ spécie cæli secréta
|
||||||
|
penetráre. Qui, tantæ ejus glóriæ congáudens, omnipoténti Deo in hymnis et láudibus
|
||||||
|
grátias réddidit, ejúsque óbitum frátribus denuntiávit. Quos étiam prótinus misit, ut
|
||||||
|
ejus corpus ad monastérium deférrent, atque in sepúlcro, quod sibi ipsi paráverat,
|
||||||
|
pónerent. Quo facto cóntigit, ut, quorum mens una semper in Deo fúerat, eórum quoque
|
||||||
|
córpora nec sepultúra separáret.

The worshipful Scholastica, the sister of our Father Benedict, was hallowed unto the Lord
|
||||||
|
Almighty from a child. Her custom was to come to see her brother once every year. And when
|
||||||
|
she came, the man of God went down unto her, not far from the gate, but, as it were,
|
||||||
|
within the borders of his monastery. And there was a day when she came, as her custom was,
|
||||||
|
and her worshipful brother went down to her, and his disciples with him. Then they passed
|
||||||
|
the whole day together, praising God, and speaking one to the other of spiritual things.
|
||||||
|
And when the night came, they brake bread together. And while they were yet at table, and
|
||||||
|
conversed together on spiritual things, the hour was late. Then the holy woman his sister
|
||||||
|
besought him, saying: Leave me not, I pray thee, this night, but let us speak even until
|
||||||
|
morning of the gladness of the eternal life. He answered her: What is it that thou sayest,
|
||||||
|
my sister? I can by no means remain out of my cell. Now the firmament was so clear that
|
||||||
|
there were no clouds in the sky. Then the holy nun, when she had heard the words of her
|
||||||
|
brother, that he would not abide with her, clasped her hands on the table, and laid her
|
||||||
|
face on her hands, and besought the Lord Almighty. And it came to pass that when she lifted
|
||||||
|
up her head from the table, there were great thunderings and lightnings, and a flood of
|
||||||
|
rain, insomuch that neither the worshipful Benedict nor the brethren that were with him
|
||||||
|
could move as much as a foot over the threshold of the place where they sat.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now when the holy woman laid her head in her hands upon the table, she wept bitterly, and
|
||||||
|
as she wept, the clearness of the sky was turned to a tempest. As she prayed, immediately
|
||||||
|
the flood followed. And the time was so, that she lifted up her head when it thundered, and
|
||||||
|
when she had lifted up her head, the rain came. When the man of God saw that he could not
|
||||||
|
return to his monastery, because of the lightnings, and thunderings, and the great rain,
|
||||||
|
he was sorrowful and grieved, saying: Almighty God forgive thee, my sister; what is this
|
||||||
|
that thou hast done? She answered him: Behold, I besought thee, and thou wouldest not
|
||||||
|
hear; I besought my God, and He hath heard me; if, therefore, thou wilt, go forth, leave
|
||||||
|
me alone, and go thy way to thy monastery. But he could not, and so he tarried in the same
|
||||||
|
place, not willingly, but of necessity. And so it came to pass that they slept not all that
|
||||||
|
night, but fed one another with discourse on spiritual things.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
And when the morning was come, the worshipful woman arose, and went unto her own cell, and
|
||||||
|
the man of God went back to his monastery. And, behold, after three days he was sitting in
|
||||||
|
his cell, and he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and saw the soul of his sister, delivered
|
||||||
|
from the body, fly to heaven in a bodily shape like a dove. Wherefore he rejoiced because
|
||||||
|
of the glory that was revealed in her, and gave thanks to Almighty God in hymns and
|
||||||
|
praises, and made known to the brethren that she was dead. He commanded them also to go
|
||||||
|
and take up her body, and bring it to his monastery, and lay it in the grave which he had
|
||||||
|
made ready for himself. Whereby it came to pass that they twain who had ever been of one
|
||||||
|
mind in the Lord, even in death were not divided.

after James. Under the Emperor Trajan he was accused before the Pro-Consul Atticus, as

being both a Christian and a relation of Christ, this being the time when all were

arrested that were of the lineage of David. He underwent with great suffering the same

boldness and firmness he endured the grievous torment of the cross, at his great age, for
