St. Monica, St. Stanislaus, the Apparition of St. Michael, and St. Eleutherius. St. Monica's Nocturn 3 Gospel+homily reuses the already-verified Luke 7:11-16 text from post-pentecost-15.yml, the same pericope her own day's lessons cross-reference.

# Matins Nocturn 2 reading for St. Eleutherius, Pope and Martyr (May 26)
|
|
# — pre-1955-but-post-1617. Plain Sancti/05-26.txt is a different, later
|
|
# saint (St. Philip Neri, canonized 1622) who displaced Eleutherius on
|
|
# the general calendar's own May 26 slot; his content survives at the
|
|
# suffixed sibling file (see memory vu-matins-pre1955-saints's "critical
|
|
# wrinkle").

# web/www/horas/Latin/Sancti/05-26o.txt, English/Sancti/05-26o.txt.
|
|
# Single lesson (simplex-feast Lectio93), no responsory in the source.
|
|
# Note: the Latin and English texts here are noticeably not a literal
|
|
# 1:1 translation of each other (the English is considerably more
|
|
# detailed) — both are transcribed as-given from their respective source
|
|
# files rather than reconciled, same as elsewhere in this project when
|
|
# the two language tracks diverge.

Eleutherius, Nicopoli in Græcia natus, Aniceti Pontificis diaconus, Commodo imperatóre,
|
|
præfuit Ecclésiæ. Huic, inítio pontificatus, supplices litteræ venérunt a Lucio Britannórum
|
|
rege, ut se ac suos in Christianórum númerum reciperet. Quam ob rem Fugatium et Damianum,
|
|
doctos et pios viros, misit in Britanniam, per quos rex et réliqui fidem susciperent. Hoc
|
|
Pontifice, Irenæus Polycarpi discipulus, Romam veniens, ab eo benígne acceptus est. Quo
|
|
témpore summa pace et quiete fruebátur Ecclésia Dei; ac per totum orbem terrárum, maxime
|
|
Romæ, fides propagabátur. Vixit Eleutherius in pontificatu annos quindecim, dies viginti
|
|
tres. Fecit ordinatiónes tres mense Decembri, quibus creávit presbyteros duodecim, diaconos
|
|
octo, episcopos per diversa loca quindecim: sepultúsque est in Vaticano prope corpus sancti
|
|
Petri.

Eleutherius was a Greek by race, and was born at Nicopolis, a city of Epirus. His father's
|
|
name was Abundius. He was a Priest of the holy Roman Church. During the reign of the Emperor
|
|
Marcus Aurelius Augustus, after the death of Soter, he was chosen Bishop of Rome by the
|
|
votes of all the clergy. He discharged the duties of this office excellently, and with all
|
|
praise, for fifteen years and twenty-three days. He held three ordinations in the month of
|
|
December, wherein he ordained twelve Priests, eight Deacons, and fifteen Bishops for diverse
|
|
places. He was consulted by the church of Lyons by letter concerning certain questions. The
|
|
bearer of these letters was that most learned Irenaeus. Him he hospitably welcomed, and to
|
|
him he opened the traditions of the Apostles which the Church of Rome had kept pure. He
|
|
condemned the superstitious dry-meat system of the Montanists. He laid down excellent rules
|
|
as to the right form of church sentences. When Marcion and Valentine had oftentimes relapsed
|
|
he cast them out of the Church. In his days the Church enjoyed the utmost peace, and he
|
|
brought many even of the chiefest of Rome to believe in Christ. He received letters by
|
|
messengers from Lleurwg, Prince of the Britons, praying him for ministers of the Word of
|
|
God, and he sent unto him Fagan and Dyfan, Priests of the Roman Church, through whose hands
|
|
the Prince himself, with his whole household and nearly all his subjects, were born again in
|
|
the sacred washing of regeneration. At length, when he had done all these things and others
|
|
for the worship of God, Eleutherius died a holy death in the reign of the Emperor Commodus,
|
|
and was buried upon the Vatican Mount.
