Natalis sancti Petri de Moróno, Confessóris, qui ex Anachoréta Summus Póntifex creátus, dictus est Cælestínus Quintus.  Sed Pontificátu se póstmodum abdicávit, et in solitúdine religiósam vitam agens, virtútibus et miráculis clarus, migrávit ad Dóminum. The birthday of St. Peter of Moroni who, while leading the life of an anchoret, was created Sovereign Pontiff and called Celestine V.  He later abdicated the pontificate, and led a religious life in solitude, where, renowned for virtues and miracles, he went to the Lord.
Romæ sanctæ Pudentiánæ Vírginis, quæ, post innúmeros agónes, post multórum Mártyrum venerabíliter exhíbitas sepultúras, post omnes facultátes suas pro Christo paupéribus erogátas, tandem de terris ad cælos migrávit. At Rome, the saintly virgin Pudentiana, who, after numberless tribulations, after burying with respect many martyrs, and distributing all her goods to the poor for Christ’s sake, departed from this world to go to heaven.
Ibídem sancti Pudéntis Senatóris, qui ejúsdem sanctæ Pudentiánæ Vírginis ac sanctæ item Praxédis Vírginis fuit pater; atque, ab Apostólicis Christo in baptísmo vestítus, innocéntem túnicam usque ad vitæ corónam immaculáte custodívit. In the same city, St. Pudens, senator, father of the virgins Pudentiana and Praxedes.  He was clothed with Christ in baptism by the apostles, and preserved the robe of innocence unspotted until he received the crown of life.
Item Romæ, via Appia, natális sanctórum Calóceri et Parthénii eunuchórum; quorum prior, cum esset præpósitus cubículi uxóris Décii Imperatóris, postérior vero altérius múneris primicérius, et ambo nollent idólis sacrificáre, idcírco, ejúsdem Imperatóris jussu váriis ac diris sunt excruciáti supplíciis, ac tandem, cervícibus ardénti fuste contúsis, spíritum Deo tradidérunt. Also at Rome, on the Appian Way, the birthday of the Saints Calocerus and Parthenius, eunuchs.  The former was chamberlain of the wife of Emperor Decius, and the latter chief officer in another department.  Because they refused to offer sacrifice to idols they were tortured in many cruel ways, and finally when their necks were broken with cudgels, they gave up their souls to God.
Nicomedíæ sancti Philóteri Mártyris, qui Paciáni Procónsulis fílius éxstitit, et, sub Diocletiáno Imperatóre, multa passus, martyrii corónam accépit. At Nicomedia, the martyr St. Philoterus, son of the proconsul Pacian, who after suffering much under Emperor Diocletian, received the crown of martyrdom.
Ibídem sanctárum sex Vírginum et Mártyrum, quarum præcípua erat Cyríaca, quæ, cum líbere Maximiánum impietátis objurgásset, diríssime cæsa et dilaniáta est, atque ad últimum, igne cremáta, martyrium consummávit. In the same city, six holy virgins and martyrs.  The principal one, named Cyriaca, having boldly reproved Maximian for his impiety, was severely scourged and lacerated, and then consumed by fire.
Cantuáriæ, in Anglia, sancti Dunstáni Epíscopi. At Canterbury in England, St. Dunstan, bishop.
Lohanéti, in Británnia minóre, sancti Ivónis Presbyteri et Confessóris; qui, pro Christi amóre, causas pupillórum, viduárum ac páuperum defendébat. At Louannée in Brittany, St. Ives, priest and confessor, who for the love of Christ, defended the interests of orphans, widows and the poor.

At Fucecchio in Etruria, St. Theophilus of Curte, confessor and priest of the Order of Friars Minor, who was canonized by Pope Pius XI.
Et álibi aliórum plurimórum sanctórum Mártyrum et Confessórum, atque sanctárum Vírginum.
