# Verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum 1617), Lauds
# live query, 2029-12-30 -- the Sunday within the Octave of Christmas,
# found via the reference engine's own dedicated Tempora/Nat1-0 proper
# (its actual identity in the reference engine, distinct from any of the
# individual octave-day saints' own pages, e.g. Nat02/Nat03/Nat04 for
# Dec 26/27/28). This particular date was picked because it's the one
# clean case in range where the Sunday actually wins outright with no
# saint commemorated at all ("Dominica Infra Octavam Nativitatis ~
# Semiduplex Dominica minor", no Commemoratio line) -- on most years the
# Sunday instead falls on one of the Duplex-II-classis octave-day feasts
# (St. Stephen, St. John, Holy Innocents) and is itself only commemorated,
# which is what earlier searches this session kept running into and
# concluded (wrongly) meant there was no clean date at all.
