Notes
edit- ^ The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar"). - ^ "This is a great feast-day in Ukraine and commemorates several events during which the Mother of God appeared over embattled cities to save them with her Mantle of Protection (e.g. Pochaiv in 1675)."[3]
- ^ "At Thessalonica, St. Domninus, martyr, under the same Maximian."[7]
- ^ "At Tournay, St. Piaton, priest and martyr, who, with blessed Quinctinus and his companions, went from Rome to Gaul to preach the faith, and afterwards, in the persecution of Maximian, having consummated his martyrdom, passed from earth to heaven."[7]
- ^ "SAINT PIATUS, it is pretended, was a native of Beneventum, who went to Gaul with S. Dionysius of Paris, and preached in the region near Lille and Tournay. He was attacked by the barbarians and killed. The body was found by S. Eligius at Seclin where he was martyred, and translated in the 9th century to S. Omer, thence to Chartres, and then to Tournay. The relics were shown in 1143 at Seclin; the Chartres people, however, showed the entire body in their cathedral, and disputed its translation from Chartres to Tournay. Each entire body has established its authenticity by miracles; that at Chartres, however, disappeared at the Revolution."[15]
- ^ "At Lisbon, in Portugal, the holy martyrs Verissimus, and his sisters, Maxima and Julia, who suffered in the persecution of Diocletian."[7] They have a full Mozarabic service.
- ^ "At Rome, blessed Aretas and five hundred and four other martyrs."[7]
- ^ "Aldowin, commonly called Bavo, was Count of Hesbain, married to the daughter of Count Adilio, and by her became the father of S. Adeltrude. He lived a careless, merry life till the death of his wife, when he felt her loss so keenly, that the world and its pleasures became bitter to his taste; then in a fit of sorrow he went to S. Amandus and asked him his advice. Amandus advised him to distribute his goods among the poor, and build a church and monastery to S. Peter at Ghent. Wherever Amandus went preaching Bavo followed, eager to hear the Word of God. The seed sank deep into his heart and bare fruit in an altered life. He returned to Ghent and became a recluse in the monastery he had erected there, and there he died in the odour of sanctity."[17]
- ^ "MELORIUS, whose name is also written MELIORUS, was venerated with great devotion in the Abbey Church of Amesbury. It appears that he was an early Martyr, and of the ancient British race, but we have no authentic record of his Acts. It is said that he was the son of a prince of Cornwall and one of the first converts to the Christian Faith, on which account he was put to a cruel death by his father; that he was buried in Cornwall, and afterwards translated to Amesbury."[19]

- ^ "AT Rheims, in France, St. Remigius, bishop confessor, who converted the Franks to Christ, regenerated Clovis, their king, in the sacred font of baptism and instructed him in the mysteries of . faith. After he had been many years bishop, and had distinguished himself by his sanctity and the power of working miracles, he departed this life on the 13th of January. His festival, however, is kept on this day, when his sacred body was translated."[7]
