All 9 of April's SanctiM-track saints authored. Found a new wrinkle: St. Catherine of Siena and St. Peter Martyr sit on swapped dates between this app's calendar and the general Tridentine one (Apr 29/30 each way), not just an off-by-a-few-days shift like earlier cases. Also hit a reference-engine data bug on St. George (English prose filed under a Latin heading) and another genuinely Monastic-only saint (St. Robert of Molesme) needing an original translation.

Leo primus, Etruscus, eo tempore præfuit Ecclesiæ, cum rex Hunnorum Attila, cognomento
|
|
Flagellum Dei, in Italiam invadens, Aquilejam triennii obsidione captam diripuit et
|
|
incendit. Unde cum Romam ardenti furore raperetur, jamque copias, ubi Mincius in Padum
|
|
influit, trajicere pararet, occurrit ei Leo, malorum Italiæ impendentium misericordia
|
|
permotus: cujus divina eloquentia persuasum est Attilæ, ut regrederetur. Qui interrogatus
|
|
a suis, quid esset quod præter consuetudinem tam humiliter Romani Pontificis imperata
|
|
faceret; respondit, se astantem quemdam alium, illo loquente, sacerdotali habitu veritum
|
|
esse, sibi stricto gladio minitantem mortem, nisi Leoni obtemperaret. Quare in Pannoniam
|
|
reversus est.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Leo autem Romæ singulari omnium lætitia exceptus, paulo post invadenti Urbem Genserico,
|
|
eadem eloquentiæ vi et sanctitatis opinione persuasit, ut ab incendio, ignominiis, ac
|
|
cædibus abstineret. Sed cum Ecclesiam a multis hæresibus oppugnari, maximeque a
|
|
Nestorianis et Eutychianis exagitari videret; ad eam purgandam, et in fide catholica
|
|
confirmandam, concilium Chalcedonense indixit, ubi sexcentis triginta coactis episcopis,
|
|
Eutyches et Dioscorus, et iterum Nestorius condemnati sunt: ejusdemque concilii decreta
|
|
sua auctoritate confirmavit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
His actis, sanctus Pontifex se ad reficiendas et ædificandas ecclesias convertit. Cujus
|
|
suasu Demetria, pia femina, sancti Stephani ecclesiam construxit in suo fundo via
|
|
Latina, tertio ab Urbe milliario: ipse via Appia sub nomine sancti Cornelii alteram
|
|
condidit. Multas præterea et sacras ædes, et sacra earum vasa restituit. In tribus
|
|
basilicis, Petri, Pauli, et Constantiniana, cameras exstruxit: ædificavit monasterium
|
|
vicinum basilicæ sancti Petri: sepulcris Apostolorum custodes adhibuit, quos cubicularios
|
|
appellavit. Statuit, ut in actione mysterii diceretur: Sanctum sacrificium, immaculatam
|
|
hostiam. Sanxit, ne monacha benedictum capitis velamen reciperet, nisi quadraginta
|
|
annorum virginitatem probasset. His et aliis præclare gestis, cum multa sancte et
|
|
luculenter scripsisset, quarto Idus Novembris obdormivit in Domino. Sedit in pontificatu
|
|
annos viginti unum, mensem unum, dies tredecim.

|
Leo was an Etruscan who ruled the Church at the time when Attila, king of the Huns, whose
|
|
surname is the Scourge of God, invaded Italy, and after a siege of three years, took,
|
|
sacked, and burnt Aquileia. Thence he was hurrying to Rome, on fire with anger, and his
|
|
troops were already preparing to cross the Po, at the place where that river is joined by
|
|
the Mincio, when he was met by Leo, moved with compassion at the thought of the ruin which
|
|
hung over Italy. By his God-given eloquence, Attila was persuaded to turn back, and when he
|
|
was afterwards asked by his servants why, contrary to his custom, he had so meekly yielded
|
|
to the entreaties of the Bishop of Rome, he answered that he had been alarmed by a figure
|
|
dressed like a Priest, which had appeared at the side of Leo while he was speaking, holding
|
|
a drawn sword, and had made as though to kill the king unless he consented. And so he
|
|
returned into Pannonia.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Leo went back to Rome, where he was received with rejoicing by all men. A while later,
|
|
Genseric entered the city, but Leo, by the power of his eloquence and the authority of his
|
|
holy life, persuaded him to abstain from fire, insult, and slaughter. When Leo beheld how
|
|
the Church was assailed by many heresies, and in dire trouble through the Nestorians and
|
|
Eutychians, to purify the same and establish her in the Catholic Faith, he called the
|
|
Council of Chalcedon, where, in an assembly of six hundred and thirty Bishops, Nestorius
|
|
was again condemned, along with Eutyches and Dioscorus; the decrees of which Council were
|
|
confirmed by the authority of Leo.
|
|
|
|
|
|
After these matters, this holy Pope set himself to the restoration and building of
|
|
Churches. By his advice that godly woman Demetria built the Church of St. Stephen upon
|
|
her farm on the Latin Road, at the third milestone from the city. He himself built another
|
|
Church upon the Appian Way, which Church is called that of St. Cornelius. He restored
|
|
likewise many other Churches, and the holy vessels used therein. He built Clergy-houses at
|
|
the three Basilicas of Peter, Paul, and Constantine. He built a monastery hard by the
|
|
Basilica of St. Peter. He appointed for the graves of the Apostles certain keepers, whom
|
|
he called the Chamberlains of the said Apostles. He ordained that in the action of the
|
|
Mystery should be uttered the words An holy sacrifice, an offering without spot. He
|
|
ordered that no nun should have the covering of her head blessed until she had made trial
|
|
of her virginity for forty years. After doing all these and other illustrious works, and
|
|
after he had written much that is both godly and easy to be understood, he fell asleep in
|
|
the Lord on the eleventh day of April. He held the Papal See for twenty years, one month,
|
|
and thirteen days.
