Starts the bulk-content pass complementary to the pre-1955 saints pass: 11 of January's 13 SanctiM-track saints authored (2 left unsourced — their Nocturn 2/3 content is entirely octave homiletic material, no proper vita text in either track). Most SanctiM files turn out to be thin rule overrides pointing back at the same Sancti/ text; only St. Maurus (Monastic-only, no Sancti file) needed direct SanctiM sourcing, with an original translation for its missing English source.

Felix Nolanus presbyter, cum in idola vehementius inveherétur, ab infidelibus varie
|
|
vexatus, in carcerem conjícitur. Unde ab Angelo nocte edúctus, quærere jussus est
|
|
Maximianum Nolæ episcopum: qui cum senio confectus desperáret se ferre posse supplícia
|
|
persequéntium, se abdíderat in silvam. Quo cum Felix Deo duce pervenísset, sanctum
|
|
episcopum humi jacéntem pene mortuum videt; quem recreátum ac sublátum in humeros, apud
|
|
fidélem víduam reficiéndum curávit. Sed cum is íterum idolórum cultores impietátis
|
|
argúeret, facto in ipsum ímpetu, fúgiens in angusto duórum paríetum intervállo se
|
|
occultávit; qui áditus cum repénte araneárum telis pertextus visus esset, némini recentis
|
|
látebræ suspiciónem relíquit. Inde ígitur evádens Felix in ædibus piæ mulíeris tres menses
|
|
látuit. Cum vero Dei Ecclésia requiéscere cœpísset, Nolam rédiens, multisque ibi vitæ
|
|
exemplis, et doctrinæ præceptis, miraculisque ad Christi fidem conversis, constanter étiam
|
|
recusato ejus urbis episcopatu, obdormívit in Dómino, sepultúsque est prope Nolam in loco,
|
|
quem in Pincis appellábant.

Felix was a Priest of Nola, who on account of his fiery zeal against idolatry, suffered
|
|
much persecution from the heathens, and was cast into prison. From thence an angel
|
|
delivered him by night, and bade him go to Maximian, Bishop of Nola. This Bishop, enfeebled
|
|
by old age, had at length despaired of power to withstand the torments of the persecutors,
|
|
and had hidden himself in a wood. Thither came Felix, by the will of God, and found the
|
|
holy bishop lying half-dead upon the ground. He succoured him, and carried him upon his
|
|
shoulders to the house of an holy widow. On another occasion, Felix, having again provoked
|
|
the anger of the devil-worshippers, became an object of their pursuit, from which he hid
|
|
himself in a narrow place between two walls. Hardly had he entered, when some spiders wove
|
|
their webs across the entrance, which the enemy perceiving, concluded that no man had
|
|
entered, and passed by. After leaving this hiding-place, Felix lay for three months in the
|
|
house of an holy woman. After the Lord gave peace to His Church, the Saint returned to
|
|
Nola, where he turned many to Christ by his life, his preaching, and his miracles. He
|
|
steadily refused to accept the Bishopric, fell asleep in the Lord, and was buried at Nola
|
|
in the place called The Pines.
