Patricius, Hiberniæ dictus Apostolus, Calphurnio patre, matre Conchessa sancti
|
|
Martini Turonensis episcopi, ut perhibent, consanguinea, majori in Britannia
|
|
natus, puer in barbarorum sæpius incidit captivitatem. Eo in statu, pascendis
|
|
gregibus præpositus jam tum futuræ sanctitatis specimen præbuit: fidei namque,
|
|
divinique timoris et amoris spiritu repletus, antelucano tempore per nives, gelu
|
|
ac pluvias ad preces Deo fundendas, impiger consurgebat; solitus centies interdiu,
|
|
centiesque noctu Deum orare. A servitute tertio exemptus, et inter clericos
|
|
relatus, in divinis lectionibus longo se tempore exercuit. Galliis, Italia,
|
|
insulisque Tyrrheni maris labore summo peragratis, divino tandem monitu ad
|
|
Hibernorum salutem advocatur; et facta a beato Cælestino Papa Evangelii
|
|
nuntiandi potestate, consecratusque episcopus, in Hiberniam perrexit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Eo in munere mirum quot vir apostolicus mala, quot ærumnas et labores, quot
|
|
pertulerit adversarios. Verum Dei afflante benignitate, terra illa, idolorum
|
|
antea cultrix, eum mox prædicante Patricio fructum dedit, ut sanctorum insula
|
|
deínde fuerit appellata. Frequentissimi ab eo populi sacro sunt regenerati
|
|
lavacro: episcopi, clericique plurimi ordinati; virgines ac viduæ ad continentiæ
|
|
leges institutæ. Armachanam sedem, Romani Pontificis auctoritate, totius insulæ
|
|
principem metropolim constituit, sanctorumque reliquiis ab Urbe relatis
|
|
decoravit. Supernis visionibus, prophetiæ dono, ingentibusque signis et
|
|
prodigiis a Deo exornatus adeo refulsit, ut longe lateque celebrior Patricii se
|
|
fama diffuderit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Præter quotidianam ecclesiarum sollicitudinem, invictum ab oratione spiritum
|
|
numquam relaxabat. Ajunt enim, integrum quotidie Psalterium, una cum Canticis et
|
|
Hymnis, ducentisque orationibus, consuevisse recitare, tercenties per dies
|
|
singulos flexis genibus Deum adorare, ac in qualibet hora diei canonica centies
|
|
se crucis signo munire. Noctem tria in spatia distribuens, primum in centum
|
|
Psalmis percurrendis et bis centies genuflectendo alterum in reliquis
|
|
quinquaginta Psalmis, algidis aquis immersus, ac corde, oculis manibusque ad
|
|
cælum erectus, absolvendis insumebat: tertium vero super nudum lapidem stratus
|
|
tenui dabat quieti. Humilitatis eximius cultor, apostolico more a manuum suarum
|
|
labore non abstinuit. Assiduis tandem curis pro Ecclesia consumptus, verbo et
|
|
opere clarus, in extrema senectute divinis mysteriis refectus, obdormivit in
|
|
Domino, sepultusque est apud Dunum in Ultonia, a christiana salute sæculo quinto.

|
Patrick, called the Apostle of Ireland, was born in Great Britain. The name of his
|
|
father was Calphurnius, and that of his mother Conchessa. She is said to have been
|
|
a relation of St. Martin, Bishop of Tours. When Patrick was a lad, he was several
|
|
times taken prisoner by savages, and while being in their hands he was employed as
|
|
a shepherd, he already showed marks of his saintliness to come. His spirit was
|
|
filled with faith, and love, and fear of God, so that he would rise before the
|
|
light, in snow, and frost, and rain, to make his prayers to God, being accustomed
|
|
to address God in prayer an hundred times every day, and an hundred times every
|
|
night. After being rescued from his third captivity, he was placed among the
|
|
clergy, and for a long time exercised himself in sacred learning. To this end he
|
|
travelled with much labour, through Gaul, Italy, and the islands of the Tyrrhenian
|
|
Sea, but at last being called of God to work for the salvation of the Irish, and,
|
|
having received from the Blessed Pope Celestine a commission to preach the gospel,
|
|
and likewise being consecrated a Bishop, he betook himself to Ireland.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the discharge of his calling it is a marvel with how many evils, with how many
|
|
sufferings and labours, and with how many adversaries the Apostolic Patrick had to
|
|
bear. Nevertheless, by the goodness of God, that island, which had up to that time
|
|
been given over to the serving of idols, was, through the preaching of Patrick, so
|
|
wrought on that she soon brought forth the fruit which won her the name of the
|
|
Island of Saints. Patrick caused many of her people to be born again by the washing
|
|
of regeneration; he ordained many Bishops and clerks; he decreed rules for virgins
|
|
and widows living in continency. By the authority of the Bishop of Rome he
|
|
established the See of Armagh as the Primatial See of all Ireland, and enriched
|
|
the Church with relics of the Saints brought from Rome. Patrick, moreover, was so
|
|
eminently adorned with heavenly visions, with the gift of prophecy, and with great
|
|
signs and wonders from God, that the fame of him spread itself abroad more and
|
|
more, day by day.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Besides that which came upon him daily, the care of all the Churches of Ireland, he
|
|
never suffered his spirit to weary in constant prayer. They say that it was his
|
|
custom to repeat every day the whole Book of Psalms, together with Songs and
|
|
Hymns, and two hundred Prayers; that he bent his knees to God in worship three
|
|
hundred times every day, and that he made on himself the sign of the Cross an
|
|
hundred times at each of the Seven Hours of the Church Service. He divided the
|
|
night into three portions; during the first he repeated the first hundred Psalms,
|
|
and bent his knees two hundred times; during the second he remained plunged in cold
|
|
water, with heart, eyes, and hands lifted up to heaven, and in that state repeated
|
|
the remaining fifty Psalms; during the third he took his short rest, lying upon a
|
|
bare stone. He was a great practicer of lowliness, and, after the pattern of the
|
|
Apostle, he always continued to work with his own hands. At last he fell asleep in
|
|
the Lord in extreme old age, refreshed with the Divine Mysteries, worn out with
|
|
unceasing care for the Churches, and glorious both in word and work. His body is
|
|
buried in Down in Ulster. He passed away in the fifth century after the giving of
|
|
salvation by Christ.
