St. Charles Borromeo (11-04), the Octave Day of All Saints (11-08, own real Cyprian/Augustine Nocturn 2-3 content, collect reused from All Saints via cross-id propers), St. Albert the Great (11-15), St. Gertrude (11-16), St. Felix of Valois (11-20). All Souls' Day (11-02) deliberately skipped -- a Requiem office, not a normal saint's office, a genuine mechanism gap. Several new fixed-date Duplex+ saints displaced existing test fixtures that had assumed particular dates were clean/ferial/ plain-Sunday: prime.test.ts's MONDAY constant, weekday.test.ts's clean-Sunday case, and day-label.test.ts's post-Epiphany-overflow and open-octave-day cases. Fixed by finding genuinely clean alternate dates/years, never by weakening assertions. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Gertrúdis, Islébii in Saxónia nobili genere nata, quinquénnis
|
|
in monastério Rodardénsi, ordinis sancti Benedicti,
|
|
virginitátem suam ac seipsam Jesu Christo óbtulit. Quo ex
|
|
témpore a mundanis rebus prorsus aliena, virtútique sedulo
|
|
intenta, cæléstis vitæ genus instituit. Ad humaniórum
|
|
litterárum notítiam, rerum divinárum cognitiónem adjunxit;
|
|
quarum meditatióne vehementius ad virtútem incensa, brevi
|
|
christianam perfectiónem adepta est. De Christo ejusque vitæ
|
|
mystériis sæpenúmero pio cum animi sensu loquebátur, unamque
|
|
Dei glóriam cogitans, ad illam vota sua ómnia et actiónes
|
|
referebat. Quamvis autem multis exímiis natúræ et gratiæ
|
|
donis a Deo aucta esset, ita tamen sibi ipsa vilescebat, ut,
|
|
inter præcipua divinæ bonitátis miracula, hoc item
|
|
memoráret, quod se indigníssimam misericorditer sustinéret.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Trigesimum ætátis annum agens, primum Rodardénsis monasterii,
|
|
ubi religiosam vitam est professa, deínde Elpediáni præses
|
|
electa, quadragínta annórum spátio, ea caritate, prudéntia,
|
|
et regularis disciplinæ studio munus obívit, ut cœnobium
|
|
religiosæ perfectiónis domicílium viderétur. Utrobíque vero,
|
|
licet esset ómnium mater et magistra, ómnium tamen minima
|
|
haberi volebat, ac demissióne pari ministram se exhibebat.
|
|
Quo liberius Deo vacaret, vigiliis, abstinéntia aliisque
|
|
cruciátibus corpus afflixit; semperque sui símilis, morum
|
|
innocéntiam, mansuetúdinem ac patiéntiam prætulit
|
|
singularem. Proximórum salúti omni ope studuit, piæque curæ
|
|
copiósum fructum rétulit. Divini amoris vi frequéntes
|
|
patiebátur éxstases, altissimǽque contemplatiónis et divinæ
|
|
uniónis donum obtinuit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ut meritum acceptíssimæ sibi sponsæ Christus osténderet, in
|
|
corde Gertrudis jucundam sibi esse mansiónem testátus est.
|
|
Deiparam Vírginem, véluti matrem et curatricem a Jesu
|
|
acceptam, pietáte præcipua prosequebátur, ab eáque multa
|
|
accépit beneficia. Erga diviníssimum Eucharistiæ sacraméntum
|
|
et passiónem Dómini tanto amóre cum grati animi sensu
|
|
afficiebátur, ut intérdum ubéribus lácrimis perfunderétur.
|
|
Justórum ánimas, piacularibus flammis addictas, quotidiánis
|
|
subsidiis et precibus juvábat. Multa ad confovéndam
|
|
pietátem scripsit. Divinárum étiam revelatiónum et
|
|
prophetíæ dono cláruit. Dénique, flagrantíssimo Dei amóre
|
|
potius quam morbo languéscens, anno Dómini millesimo
|
|
ducentésimo nonagesimo secundo vita decessit. Miraculis
|
|
vivens et post mortem a Deo illustráta est.

|
Gertrude was born of a noble family at Eisleben, in Saxony,
|
|
(about the year of our Lord 1264.) At five years of age she
|
|
offered her virginity and herself to Jesus Christ, in the
|
|
Benedictine nunnery at Rodalsdorf. From that time forth she
|
|
was utterly estranged from earthly things, ever striving for
|
|
things higher, and began to lead a kind of heavenly life. To
|
|
learning in human letters she added knowledge of the things
|
|
of God. In the thought thereof she earnestly desired, and
|
|
soon reached, the perfection of a Christian soul. Of Christ,
|
|
and of the things in His life, she spoke oftentimes with
|
|
movings of spirit. The glory of God was the one end of all
|
|
her thoughts, and to that her every longing and her every act
|
|
were given. Though God had crowned her with so many and so
|
|
noble gifts both of nature and of grace, her belief regarding
|
|
herself was so humble that she was used to number as among
|
|
the greatest of the wonders of His goodness that He had
|
|
always in His mercy borne with one who was so utterly
|
|
unworthy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the thirtieth year of her age she was elected Abbess of
|
|
Rodalsdorf, where she had professed herself in the religious
|
|
life, and afterwards of Heldelfs. This office she bore for
|
|
forty years in love, wisdom, and zeal for strict observance,
|
|
so that the house seemed like an ideal example of a
|
|
sisterhood of perfect nuns. To each one she was a mother and
|
|
a teacher, and yet would be as the least of all, being in
|
|
sooth in all lowliness among them as she that served. That
|
|
she might be more utterly God's only, she tormented her body
|
|
with sleeplessness, hunger, and other afflictions, but withal
|
|
ever true to herself, stood forth a pattern of innocency,
|
|
gentleness, and long-suffering. The salvation of her
|
|
neighbours was her constant earnest endeavour, and her godly
|
|
toil bore abundant fruit. The love of God oftentimes threw
|
|
her into trances, and she was given the grace of the deepest
|
|
contemplation, even to union of spirit with God.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Christ Himself, to show what such a bride was to Him,
|
|
revealed that He had in the heart of Gertrude a pleasant
|
|
dwelling-place. The Virgin Mother of God she ever sought with
|
|
deep reverence as a mother and warden whom she had received
|
|
from Jesus Himself, and from her she had many benefits.
|
|
Toward the most Divine Sacrament of the Eucharist, and the
|
|
sufferings of the Lord, her soul was moved with love and
|
|
gratitude, so that she sometimes wept abundantly. She helped
|
|
with daily gifts and prayers the souls of the just condemned
|
|
to the purifying fire. She wrote much for the fostering of
|
|
godliness. She was glorified also by revelations from God,
|
|
and by the gift of prophecy. Her last illness was rather the
|
|
wasting of a home-sickness to be with God than a decay of the
|
|
flesh, and she left this life (to live the undying life in
|
|
Him, upon the 17th day of November,) in the year of our Lord
|
|
1292. God made her bright with miracles both during her life
|
|
and after her death.
