These are the edition's working notes, published as they were written. They record, work by work, where Migne's plate is defective or the reading uncertain: the printed form, what the English does with it, and why. They are not a groomed apparatus. Where a note argues with itself, withdraws an earlier decision, or leaves a question open, that is the record of how the reading was actually reached, and it is left standing — a conjecture that is visible can be checked, and one that has been tidied away cannot.
The English never silently repairs the page. A construable but wrong reading is rendered literally and the conjecture is recorded here, never applied to the text. How the English is produced and checked →
Governed by translation-style.md Pattern 7 and the Martyrologies rules M0–M2. The English renders what Migne prints (PL 124, cols 9–857). It continues 9198, and the same edition and the same scope apply. PL 124 survives in two printings (archive patrologiaecurs76unkngoog, Gallica bpt6k54939860), and each has faults the other lacks. By Wilson's ruling of 2026-09-22, where one prints a non-word and the other the sound word, the Latin follows the sound printing. Bouillart's keyed notes: every page was read, and all 62 are placed. Stint working files: cruces-0000.md (C), cruces-0004.md (D), cruces-0008.md (E), cruces-0012.md (F).
## Merge, chunks 0000–0014 (2026-09-22)
- Plate patches: 27 in
data/tei-patches/9215.json: the banner, lignato, 15 where both printings agree against our twin, 9 press variants corrected to the sound printing (ruled), and Ambrosii. [cj:]on the November head: XXXI, read XXX (ruled).- Note garble check (
data/briefs/USUARDUS-NOTE-GARBLE-VERDICTS.md). The 0487 note had lost about four printed lines in transcription, identical in both printings; they are now restored. hoc an. II Martii stands as printed; Sollerius's quotation in the same note has XI. - Blind read (R2–R5;
data/briefs/USUARDUS-BLIND-READ-R{2..5}.md). Applied: - 0239 Cyrillus: rursus → "was again … beheaded". There is no earlier beheading.
- 0099 Conon: craticulam is the object of superaverunt → "overcame the gridiron".
- 0073 note: Quis olim aut quae → "What saint, man or woman".
- 0191 note: the elided verb is vidit, so "which he himself (saw)", not "I".
- 0253: Sileae → Silas. He is a well-known saint, so the names rule gives the English form.
- 0435 Marcellus: Priscus is the host who invited him, not the guest.
- 0277 note: Ipso die → "On this same day" (the ruled formula).
- Considered and not changed: 0119 note forma litterarum haud multum assimilis is read at the plate as assimilis on both printings. The sense arguably wants dissimilis, since Bouillart is explaining how Castellanus mistook the hand. A
[cj:]cannot stand inside an[nt:], so the literal rendering stands and the doubt is logged here.
## Note proofread against the plate (2026-09-22) All 62 notes read word for word against the printed page (data/briefs/USUARDUS-NOTE-PROOFREAD-P{3,4}.md), after the 0487 line-loss was found. No other note had lost a clause or a line. Corrections were italics Migne sets and our transcription flattened, small-cap numerals, and three word errors:
- 0247 lituram → litura, and a stray hoc picked up from the facing column's first line — the gutter hazard producing an ADDITION, not a loss.
- 0309 litura superinducta → liturae.
- 0411 Augustoduni fuerat → erant (plural subject, duobus monasteriis).
- 0309 Sollarius stands: both printings print it, so it is Migne's.
- Ligatures in the note texts normalized to plain letters (ae, oe), our standing convention.
- ⚑ Left for a later pass: the English twins mark a quoted codex reading inconsistently, some with italics and some with single quotes. Cosmetic, and not worth touching the 101 twins for now.
Plate: archive.org patrologiaecurs76unkngoog, leaf = (odd col + 9)/2, held without drift from n9 (col 9, the opening page) to n112 (215/216). 27 archive pages and 6 Gallica pages opened. Corners and verdicts are in data/briefs/9215-PLATE-READS-0000.json, and plate-vs-twin divergences in data/briefs/9215-PENDING-TEI-PATCHES-0000.md (P1–P4). Second witness: Gallica bpt6k54939860, f = (col + 1)/2, calibrated here at f41 = 81/82 and confirmed at f55 and f57.
⭐ For stints D–F: PL 124 exists in two printings, and our TEI follows the GALLICA one. At four sites (0113 mu tos, 0119 praecipatus, 0183 santae, 0085 Passecratis.) and at the variant Hi/Illi (0113), our twin agrees with Gallica against the archive copy. The archive copy also has worn sorts of its own (0081 Die 14, 0109 ab caput). At 0119 the line breaks differ, so these are two settings of the page. Before firing any [sic:] in PL 124, look at both copies. On a site where one printing is sound, I fired nothing.
No [sic:], [var:], [cj:], [ed:] or [d:] markers were fired in this range. The reasons are at each site below and in "Rejected candidates".

Sollerio tamen satis est argumenti, longam illam orationem tribuendam Usuardo non esse, quod alii codices fere omnes repugnant, et præsertim Pratensis B, in quo Sirmondus erasam esse testatus est. Hæc postrema ratio, fateor, Sollerio debuit nonnihil negotii facessere. Sed in culpa est tamen, cum eam ob causam negat ab Usuardo scriptum esse, quod perfecta scripturæ similitudo scriptum ab illo fuisse persuadet. Nodus erat solutu difficilis ? Expectaret aliquandiu, seque sustineret ; percunctaretur per litteras quid apud Usuardum cryptæ sint ; cur semel et iterum annuntietur illa dedicatio ; cur illam Pratensis codex B silentio prætereat. Hæc erant accurati editoris. Paucis nodum solvo. Ubi nunc in monasterio San-Germanensi exstrunctum visitur elegantissimum B. Virginis Mariæ sacellum, cryptæ olim fuerunt, seu altaria subterranea, quorum dedicationis festus dies, Usuardi tempore, Kalendis Junii agebatur. Postea eadem dedicatio celebrata est IV Idus, ut pate ex Prat. codicibus ; quæ tandem celebrari desiit, postquam B. Mariæ sacellum ab Hugone de Yssiaco, monasterii Pratensis abbate, cryptarum loco erectum est. Jam si quæsierit Sollerius cur illius dedicationis commemoratio in Prat. codice B. deleta fuerit, in promptu est ratio. Destructis altaribus, quod accidit dum in usu erat iste codex, desita est annuntiari illorum dedicatio; hincque factum est ut illam recentiores codices, seu a quadringentis annis exarati, prorsus omitterent.

n111→n112 213/214 (cont. 215/216) 0213 a sancti Eparchi confessoris. (a) In pago Cinomannico De tribus ultimis commemorationibus Carolinum autographum sic habet : Aninsulæ in monasterio, sancti Carilefi presbiteri. Item in territorio Remensi sancti Theodorici presbtieri. In portu Valentianas, sancti Salvii confessoris. In suo Codice Usuardus, pro Aninsulæ in monasterio, scripsit, in pago Cinomannico. Quæ correctio non hoc loco tantum, sed etiam pluribus aliis occurrit. Causam hanc esse verisimile est, quod plerisque multo minus nota sint peculiaria quædam loca, quam regiones, ubi sita sunt. Ut igitur quibus futurum in usu erat martyrologium, illi facilius perspectum haberent quibuscum communis ipsis erat in sanctum quempiam veneratio ; regiones potius ubi sanctorum cultus celebris erat, quam loca designavit. Forte etiam causæ huic accessit altera, nempe ut variaret orationem. Jam ante scripserat in territorio Lugdunensi pro peculiari loco, ubi sanctus Domicianus obierat et colebatur : postea scripsit in pago Cinomannico ut eodem modo alia tamen voce denotaret locum, ubi notus erat sanctus Carilefus. Atque sic minus affert fastidii vox territorium, qua in tertia commemoratione uti debebat. Addo hujus generis correctiones non venire in mentem interpolatori. Sane ejusmodi homines addere, demere, transferre soleant ; sed quid lucri est peculiaris loci nomen delere ut generalius regionis nomen indicetur? De sancto Theodorico nihil est, quod in tuenda correctione laborem. Illum presbyterum in Carolino autographo vocaverit ; confessoris titulo donaverit in suo codice, perinde est, et in nugis hujusmodi hariolari non vacat. Salvius autem quam docte hinc erasus fuerit, patet ex iis quæ ad diem 26 Junii observavimus. Denique sanctum Leonorium apposite hic memoratum fuisse, res est extra [n112:] controversiam posita. Leonorius ille est, qui a puero educatus et primis religionis Christianæ elementis a sancto Hilduto imbutus, postea episcopus sine sede creatus est, ut Christi nomen quocunque ferre liberius posset. Celebris fuit sexto Ecclesiæ sæculo, regnante in Gallia Childeberto, cui acceptissimus erat. De illo plura narrant Usserius in Britannicarum Ecclesiarum antiquitatibus et Cointius in Annalibus Ecclesiasticis Francorum, quæ huc referre præsentis non est instituti.

Possibly a fifth key: n104 (199/200), a small raised mark after cujus corpus in the Zoilus entry (0199). The page's NOTAE carry no keyed note ("Puros censeo Praten., Herinien., Antuerp.-Majorem et Muneratum."). Reported, not interpreted. It may be a stray or foul sort.
Pages opened with the band checked and no keyed note: n9, n11, n12, n14, n18, n21, n22, n26, n32, n45, n47, n51, n55, n57, n61, n66, n76, n84, n96, n101, n106. ⚠ n12's band (0015) runs over to n13, which I did not open, so a key for the 0017 part of that band would sit on n13's NOTAE.
Cruces
C1 · 0009 banner. See §0.
C2 · 0009 sancti Orientis episcopi. Printed Orientis (plate n9). Solier's VARIANTES on the same page: Orientis scribunt et codices pro textu citati, et alii passim, male fortasse, nam hodie legunt omnes, non Orientis, sed Orientii. The nominative is uncertain (Oriens? Orientius?), so the printed form is kept, per brief §6: "of Saint Orientis, bishop".
C3 · 0009 Taphnas, Schytiam, Hierosolimorum, Policarpus. Plate-confirmed. Solier (VARIANTES, n9) says outright that these codex spellings were left in the text on purpose: Ad menda libraria fere reducuntur, ut Egypto, Schytiam, Hierosolimorum, Policarpus, Autisiodoro, etc. Quae quia aetatem suam redolent, intacta pleraque in textu relicta sunt. That is the edition's policy, and it governs every codex spelling in this range: Pattern 9, no marker. Taphnas is an accusative plural → Taphnae; Schytia is kept; Jerusalem is conventional.
C4 · 0013 Neopolis. Genitive of a nominative that cannot be recovered with confidence (Solier mentions the Neapolis variant). The printed form is kept.
C5 · 0015 post vincula, carceres, equuleum, ungula et ignes. Plate n12 prints ungula in a list of accusatives (the expected form is ungulam/ungulas). English "the claw" carries no case, so there is nothing to render or to mark. This is a case slip with no English exponent, of the same kind as Pattern 9's gender slips. Crux only.
C6 · 0019 Item in metalla Fanensi. A neuter plural metalla with the singular ablative adjective Fanensi. Plate n14 confirms it, and Solier (VARIANTES) confirms the codices: In metalla Fanensi (non Fatensi, ut habet Antverp.-Maj.) legunt constanter codices. Rendered "Also in the mines Fanensis". The number of metalla is carried by "mines".
C7 · 0023 Hirenei, Peregrini et Hirenis; Niceti. Hirenis is read as the genitive of Hirene (Irene), a woman among two men; a near-certain nominative. Niceti could be Nicetus or a contracted Nicetius, so the printed form is kept.
C8 · 0035 Castro Vindicino, depositio beati confessoris. Plate n22: beati at a line end, confessoris at the start of the next, and no name. The entry commemorates a confessor with no name, unless beati IS the name (the confessor Beatus of Vendôme is kept on 9 May), in which case the reading is "of Beatus, confessor". Rendered literally, "the deposition of the blessed confessor". The English asserts nothing false, only less, so no [cj:] (Pattern 18's bar is a false assertion). ⚑ If a later reader finds Solier's Observatio on this entry (n22 or n23; I did not read the commentary), it may settle it.
C9 · 0035 Hermen; Nazanzi oppidum; ut Hieronymus … perhibet. Hermes: see Names. Apud Nazanzi oppidum is "at the town of Nazanzus" (the genitive of the town's name, printed so). The Gregory sentence is heavily parenthetical (qui post multa documenta, in loco suo, ut Hieronymus, ab eodem in divinis libris instructus, perhibet, episcopum ordinans, ruri vitam monachi exercuit). It is rendered in the printed order, with in loco suo taken with episcopum ordinans, "ordaining a bishop in his own place".
C10 · 0043 sancti Mamerti episcopi et confessori. Plate n26 prints confessori, a dative, in a genitive phrase. It is single-witness, a single letter, and has no English exponent. Rendered "bishop and confessor" and logged as single-witness, per brief §9 (no second copy was consulted for this site). Not a [sic:].
C11 · 0049 in Amfibuli urbe. "in the city of Amfibuli": the printed genitive kept.
C12 · 0055 the seven sees. Torquatus Acci, Tesifon Vergii, Secundus Abulae, Indalecius Urci, Cecilius Heliberri, Esicius Carcesi, Eufrasius Eliturgi quieverunt: locatives or indeclinables. Nominatives given: Acci, Vergium, Abula, Urci, Heliberri, Carcesi (printed form kept; Carcesa? Carcesum?), Eliturgi. Lamosacum, passio is an accusative used bare as a locative heading (Solier: Lamosacum, vel Lamosaco, vel Lampsaci legunt codices omnes). The printed form is kept: "At Lamosacum". Plate n32: after quieverunt, no point is visible before Apud on this very worn page. The TEI's stop is kept (see the patches file).
C13 · 0061 III Kal. Maias. An in-entry Roman date with the month printed: "on the third day before the Kalends of May", per brief §4. No modern date added.
C14 · 0081 day head and tetrachae. The archive copy (n45) prints IX Kal. … Die 14.; Gallica f41 prints Die 24. cleanly. Our twin has Die 24., which is the only number that fits the sequence, so the English reads 24 May and no M1 disagreement arises. Herodis tetrachae is printed so on both copies (for tetrarchae; Vulg. Act 13:1 Tetrarchae). It is a codex spelling of the kind Solier keeps (C3): rendered "Herod the tetrarch" under Pattern 9, no marker.
C15 · 0085 Passecratis. Valentionis,. Our twin and Gallica f43 print a full stop inside the list of names. The archive n47 prints a comma. Both are clean: a press variant. The English keeps the twin's full stop (Pattern 8), which leaves a sentence fragment "Valentio, and two others crowned together." That is the printed setting of one of the two printings, not our error.
C16 · 0093 civiate. The plate prints civitate (P1). The English renders the plate: "in the city Dorostorensis".
C17 · 0099 ac ignis penuriam passi. Rendered literally, "the want of fire": an odd torment after the frying-pan and the rack (Solier, VARIANTES: Neutrum valet of the alternatives injuriam and poenam, constanter legunt penuriam, ut nos in textu servandum putavimus). Bouillart's keyed note (above) records that the whole clause Postea vero … ligneo stands in an erasure in his codex. This is Migne's text, plate-confirmed at n54. No marker.
C18 · 0109 Bouillart's first bracket. It opens [ Addit Bouill.: and is never closed on the plate (n59, read to the end of the band). It is carried unclosed in the English. The altar list prints Macharii Dionysii with no comma (Gallica f55 likewise); kept, so the English reads "of Macharius Dionysius". ad caput vero: archive ab, Gallica and TEI ad (see the patches file).
- C18a · 0139 Madalis. Printed so; the nominative (Mandal? Madalis?) is kept as printed.
C19 · 0113 Zachariae presbyteri, sancti diaconi, Epagati. In a list of the martyrs of Lyon, sancti diaconi is the deacon Sanctus (Eusebius, HE V.1, which this very entry cites as in historia ecclesiastica). The lower-case initial is Migne's on both copies. Rendered "Sanctus, deacon", so that the list keeps its martyr. "The holy deacon" would silently drop a name from a roll of names. This construes the printed word as a name, which in the list's grammar it is; it does not emend it.
- 0113 mu tos → "many" (P2). 0113 Hi omnes → "All these". The archive has Illi (press variant). The English is the same either way.
C20 · 0119 praecipatus; ne ejus terrentur exemplo. praecipatus → "cast headlong" (P3, press variant). terrentur is printed on both copies (an indicative after ne, where terrerentur is wanted; the archive divides it ter-|rentur, and it is one word). English "lest they be terrified" has no mood to carry the slip. Mood anomalies are the class Pattern 18a declines, so crux only.
C21 · 0145 quem Anolinus … diu maceratum et afflictum in carcere, cum quo sanctissimum puerum Celsum … gladio feriri jussit. An anacoluthon: quem is never governed, and cum quo takes the accusative Celsum. Rendered literally, keeping the break. The same goes for Horum corpora … beatus Ambrosius … reperit, which follows the printed order.
C22 · 0155 peregerunt [ Interserit Bouillart: … martyris.] Apud Mesiam. No full stop after peregerunt: the bracket's own stop closes the sentence. The English carries it as printed (Pattern 8).
C23 · 0161 [ Apud Bouillart, [0163] pro, Eod. die, . . . . . viri: …]. The column anchor [0163] stands inside the bracket and stays in place. The leader dots are carried dot for dot (E7). The quoted incipit–explicit of the replaced entry stays in italic Latin, since it is a locator: "[In Bouillart, [0163] instead of Eod. die, . . . . . viri: …]".
C24 · 0167 acutos [clavos] acceperunt. Migne's own bracketed supply. It is carried in square brackets as "sharp [nails]" and is not one of ours.
C25 · 0169 et ita incorrupta eorum corpora, ac si eodem die fuissent interempti. There is no finite verb. Rendered as printed, "and their bodies so incorrupt, as if…": nothing is supplied.
C26 · 0127 juxta quem tres virgines filiae ipsius prophetissae. Usuardus prints three daughters, where Act 21:9 has filiae quatuor virgines prophetantes. The English says three, as printed. This is Usuardus's own content, not a quoted verse, so no [var:] (Pattern 14 is for a verse quoted as a quotation).
C27 · 0181 Niceae, Romatianae civitatis episcopi. Printed genitive kept (Niceas? Nicea?).
C28 · 0189 percussus gladio in [0191] corpore, Christi martyrem fecit. Literally "struck with the sword in the body, made a martyr of Christ". Presumably se or eum is understood (he made himself Christ's martyr), but nothing is supplied, and the anchor stays mid-phrase where the plate breaks the column.
C29 · 0209 Romae, natalis [ Bouillart. om. natalis] beatissimae Lucinae. The bracket sits right after the word it omits, so the English places "[Bouillart omits natalis]" right after "the birthday".
C30 · 0213 qui primis illic heremiticam vitam exercuit. Plate n111 prints primis, a real form (dative/ablative plural) with no slot here: primus ("who first there practised") is the likely sense. The English renders the printed plural as "among the first", which is literal and does not assert anything the author denies, so it is below Pattern 18's bar. Crux only. 0213 sancti Salvi. The printed genitive is kept (see Names). Bouillart's note quotes the autograph as Salvii.
C31 · 0203 ut scribit Hieronymus apostolorum temporum vicinum. vicinum agrees with quem (Irenaeus): rendered "near to the times of the apostles", attached to Irenaeus, not to Jerome.
Scripture checked (7a″)
No verse is quoted AS a quotation anywhere in 0009–0213. Allusions were phrase-searched in sources/vulgate/clementine-flat.txt so that the names and details would be checked:
- 0035 Rom 16:14 Hermen ✓ (the Vulgate prints the same form).
- 0081 Act 13:1 Manahen, qui erat Herodis Tetrarchae collactaneus ✓ allusion. Usuardus's tetrachae is his codex spelling (C14).
- 0081 Lc 8:3 Joanna uxor Chusae procuratoris Herodis: paraphrase, with Chuzae for Chusae. Not a quotation, so no
[var:]. - 0127 Act 21:8–9 (Philip, his daughters): paraphrase that diverges in number (three for four, C26). Not a quotation.
- 0213 collectus est ad patres in senectute bona: echoes Gn 15:15 / 25:8 (in senectute bona). An epithet, not a quotation.
- 0027 Acts (quem in Actibus apostolorum beatus Lucas commemorat, Lucius of Cyrene, Act 13:1) ✓ as a reference.
- 0109 Jerome's quae tanto, inquit, amplector … is Jerome (De vir. ill. 75), not scripture. Rendered as printed, with no quotation marks, since Migne prints none.
Rejected candidates (and why)
[sic:]on mu tos (0113), praecipatus (0119), santae (0183). All three are clean non-words in our twin and on the Gallica copy. The archive copy prints the sound word at all three sites, so a[sic:]would accuse a plate that another printing of the same page contradicts. The English renders the sound reading, and the patches are filed for the orchestrator.[sic:]on civiate (0093). The plate prints civitate: it is our twin's defect, not Migne's (P1).[sic:]on confessori (0043). Single-witness, a single letter (brief §9).[sic:]on tetrachae (0081), Schytiam (0009), Cresi (0109) and the other codex spellings. Solier leaves them in the text on purpose (C3), so Pattern 9 applies.[cj:]on depositio beati confessoris (0035), primis (0213) and ignis penuriam (0099). The faithful English is odd, or it omits, but it asserts nothing false (Pattern 18's bar).- A
[d:]on the doubled John-and-Paul entry (0193). The second copy is Bouillart's own bracketed version of the entry (Apud Bouillart:), printed as his witness. It is not a dittography. - An M1 day-number crux at 0081. The disagreement is in the archive copy only. Our twin and Gallica agree with the sequence (C14).
- Every OCR-candidate "difference" except the two real ones (Hi/illi at 0113, a press variant, and santae/sancte at 0183, which led to P4). The rest were archive OCR noise or misalignment: dam, dio, christianas, sardinia, qua, finem, eoram, secundas, corduba, nomino, pii, collectas. Verdicts are in the plate-reads JSON.
Stint D, 2026-09-21. Cols 0219–0435: 2 July to 4 September. Plate witnesses and every page opened are in data/briefs/9215-PLATE-READS-0004.json; the Latin's catch-up is in data/briefs/9215-PENDING-TEI-PATCHES-0004.md.
Markers fired in this range: none. No [sic:], [var:], [cj:], [ed:] or [d:]. Every non-word our twin carries in 0004–0007 turned out, at the plate, to be either a transcription error (both printings sound) or a press variant (Gallica defective, archive sound). In both cases the English follows the sound reading and a patch is filed. Nothing was left to accuse Migne of.
Calendar
- All day heads checked against
Die nand the month: every Roman date in range agrees with its modern date (July: Nones 7, Ides 15, 33 − d before the August Kalends; August: Nones 5, Ides 13, 33 − d before the September Kalends; September 2–4). No disagreement, so no calendar crux. - Month heads. 0005 prints MENSIS AUGUSTUS. HABET DIES XXXI. (with an internal stop), 0007 MENSIS SEPTEMBER HABET DIES XXX. (without). Both rendered in M1's form, "AUGUST HAS 31 DAYS." / "SEPTEMBER HAS 30 DAYS.", as stint C rendered MENSIS JULIUS. HABET DIES XXXI. The internal stop is a head's punctuation inside a structural label (Pattern 9, section labels normalize); recorded here so the choice is visible.
- Anchor placement kept as printed. 0005:
[0319]stands between the August month head and the Kalendis head, and 1 to 3 August carry no anchor at all until[0329]. 0007:[0423]appears twice, once under the September head and once under Kalendis. Both verbatim, no report (the column-band false positive).
Readings rendered from the plate (patch filed)
- 0233 Badillart (twin) → Bouillart (both printings). English "Bouillart".
- 0261 damnarunt + no mark (twin) → damnarunt. (both). English ends the Nisibis entry there.
- 0277 sanctae garitae (twin = Gallica, whose line break swallows Mar-) → sanctae Margaritae (archive). Press variant. English "Saint Margaret", no
[sic:]. Solier's keyed note on the page names her Margaritam twice. - 0291 Vicentii (twin) → Vincentii (both; the archive spaces it Vincen tii, one word). English "Vincent".
- 0337 tenere jussi (twin) → teneri jussi (both). English "ordered … to be seized".
- 0365 frivorum (twin = Gallica) → frivolum (archive). Press variant. English "frivolous".
- 0389 sanctornm (twin = Gallica) → sanctorum (archive). Press variant. English "Saints".
- 0401 logione (twin) → legione (both). English "legion".
- 0405 ex cadem urbe (twin) → ex eadem urbe (both). English "that same city".
- 0407 In Africa. (twin) → In Africa, (both). English "In Africa, the deposition …".
- 0427 promerunt (twin) → promeruit (both). English singular, "merited".
Press variants between two SOUND printings (crux only, English follows our TEI)
- 0253 Cartaginensis (Gallica = TEI) / Carthaginensis (archive). Same English.
- 0379 igni tradita sunt with no stop (Gallica = TEI) / sunt. (archive). The English stops where the TEI stops: no mark supplied.
- 0415 quidam Christianus (Gallica = TEI) / quidem Christianus (archive). English "a certain Christian". The archive's quidem would give "there met him indeed a Christian".
Text cruces (rendered as printed; no marker)
- 0219 religiosae: "a religious", i.e. a woman under vows. Bouillart's variant Deo sacratae is kept Latin as a reading (M2), and his keyed note (below) discusses it.
- 0229 sectus in duas partes occubuit: "cut into two parts, fell" (Isaias sawn in two; cf. Heb 11:37 secti sunt, not quoted).
- 0239 ad Guttam jugiter manantem: rendered "at the Gutta that flows continually". Gutta ("the Drop") is kept as a place-name.
- 0243 Valeriani et Galiani: the emperor is Gallienus; the plate spelling Galiani (not Galieni, as at 0313, 0383, 0393) is a spelling of the name, not a defect, and the emperor takes his conventional English form (Pattern 9; stint C's Galieno → Gallienus).
- 0261 Omousii oppositione: "by the opposition of the Omousion": the Nicene homoousion, kept italic Latin in the form printed.
- 0263 sub Constantino principe: placed, as printed, after "bishop and confessor"; the English keeps the order, so the phrase dates the bishop rather than the exile.
- 0291 / 0295 Two cities printed Tyro: Tyre (0239, In civitate Tyro) and In Italia civitate Tyro (0291; Christina's Tyrus, i.e. Bolsena). Both rendered "the city of Tyre", with "In Italy" kept to distinguish them, exactly as the Latin does.
- 0313 Abdon et Sennes subregulorum: Sennes printed (the saint is usually Sennen); kept. The sentence's subject changes mid-way (cum … paterentur a Decio, ad ultimum duxit eos): the English keeps the anacoluthon ("…at the last he brought them to Rome").
- 0319 Spes, Fides et Charitas … Sapientia: kept as Latin names (Hope, Faith, Charity, Wisdom). Translating them would make names into virtues.
- 0319 ad sanctum Petrum ad vincula: "at Saint Peter at the Chains". No natalis or festum printed; none supplied.
- 0339 ad missam morando restauravit: both printings read morando, "by lingering/tarrying". Gregory's Dialogues (I.7) has Donatus restore the chalice orando, "by praying"; the dropped or intruded m would be Migne's (or Usuardus's), not ours, and morando is a real word, so the English renders it literally: "restored, by lingering at mass, the holy chalice". A first draft rendered "by praying": that was a silent repair and was withdrawn before verification. A
[cj:]was weighed and not fired: the faithful English is odd but asserts nothing false about the miracle, and Pattern 18's census is closed. Solier's VARIANTES on n174 do not discuss the word. - 0339 tempore Aurelii Commodi martyrizati: no terminal stop on either printing; none supplied.
- 0357 sic per cardetum et tribulos tractus: "dragged thus through thistles and thorns". Solier's variants on n184 record carduos, Carduetum in other witnesses; our text is the plate's.
- 0365 pro conditione carnis, eam migrasse non dubitet: rendered with both its negations (non invenitur … non dubitet) and the nescire of the next sentence.
- 0373 gladio ministrorum coronandus percutitur: "he is struck with the sword of the attendants, to be crowned", the gerundive kept.
- 0377 cum sociis suis duobus milibus quingentis nonaginta et septem: "two thousand five hundred and ninety-seven". Numbers in range, each rendered in words exactly as the twin prints it (and read at the plate on the pages opened): thirty (0225), ten (0221), ten thousand two hundred and three (0239), four days (0247), about five hundred (0253), ten children (0261), ten (0277), eighty-three (0291), four (0301), fifty-two years (0309), seven and three sons (0319), eighteen (0339), twenty (0343), one hundred and sixty-five (0349), third milestone (0351), twenty (0355), nineteen (0357), thirty-third milestone, fifteen years (0373), twelve (0389), three hundred (0393), eight sons (0389), a thousand times (0397), twenty years (0431), third day (0435).
- 0379 Augustus Archadius: the archive spaces it August us; Arcadius, conventional.
- 0379 Herio insula: "On the island Herio" (Noirmoutier); nominative uncertain (Herium? Herius?), printed form kept.
- 0397 Genesius's words Non est rex praeter Christum … auferre non poteritis are his confession, not a scripture quotation (the nearest verse, Jn 19:15 Non habemus regem nisi Caesarem, is not quoted). Both negations carried.
- 0411 quae tamen hic festiva recolitur: "it is nevertheless kept here as a feast", the relative referring to the beheading.
- 0417 The anchor
[0417]falls between ignorantes and Christiani; the English places it between "Not knowing his name," and "the Christians", so it stays in the same clause. - 0423 Jesu Nave et Gedeon prophetarum: "Of Jesus Nave and Gedeon the prophets". Jesus Nave is the Greek-derived name of Joshua son of Nun; kept as printed, like Hieremias.
- 0431 Hujus dies passionis quarto Kalendas Augusti: rendered "the fourth day before the Kalends of August", month kept since it is printed (brief §4); no modern date added.
Scripture checked (brief §5, 7a″)
No verse is quoted AS a quotation anywhere in 0004–0007. References and epithets checked against sources/vulgate/clementine-flat.txt:
- 0237 Aquila and Priscilla, de quibus in Actibus apostolorum scribitur: reference (Act 18). ✓ no quotation.
- 0249 Nasonis, antiqui Christi discipuli: echoes Act 21:16 Mnasonem … antiquum discipulum; epithet, not quoted; the plate's Nason kept.
- 0277 Joseph, qui cognominatus est Justus: Act 1:23 Joseph … qui cognominatus est Justus ✓ (identical wording, an epithet).
- 0285 Sinticen … de qua apostolus Paulus scribit: Phlp 4:2 Syntychen; reference, spelling is Usuardus's.
- 0295 qui ab Herode rege decollatus est: Act 12:2 Occidit … Jacobum … gladio; paraphrase.
- 0275 Epafrae … Colossis: Col 1:7, 4:12 Epaphra(s); reference.

Atque ut haec omnia corrigeret Usuardus, in suo codice totos quinque versus oblitteravit. Non dicam eamdem esse manum, id centies iterasse sat est. Videamus quibus causis ad corrigendum adductus fuerit Usuardus. De ordine quo sanctos illos composuit, Sollerius, opinor, auctorem in jus non vocabit. Res est nihili, in qua defendenda religioni fuerit immorari. Neque etiam inficiabitur Pratensis codicis censor, Claudio, Asterio et Neoni recte adjectas fuisse Domninam et Theonillam. Habemus eorum acta proconsularia integra atque germana, ubi quinque illi martyres nominatim ad confitendam fidem vocantur et suppliciis cruciantur ; et in fine, habita est passio haec in civitate Aegea, sub Lysia praeside, x Kal. Sept. Augusto et Aristobolo consulibus. In Carolino autographo non fuerunt haec verba, qui post acerba tormenta cruci affixi sunt, quae tamen Sollerius ut Usuardina suo articulo inseruit. Tres martyres Claudius, Asterius, Neon in Dervensi codice nulla addito nominantur. BOUILLART. n205 401/402 0401 a [ Bouillart.: . . . complevit.

Candidates rejected, and why
- Every OCR candidate in range except the three logged above (0281 cum, milites; 0291 beati; 0335 sunt; 0343 natalis; 0355 viginti; 0357 vocatis; 0365 Romae; 0389 cum; 0393 translatum, sunt, adeptus; 0401 ducis): TEI right, OCR noise or a slip into Solier's commentary. 0253 Cartaginensis, 0337 tenere, 0415 quidam: see above.
- No
[sic:]on garitae, frivorum, sanctornm. Each is a non-word on Gallica only; the archive printing is sound. Per the orchestrator's two-printings ruling the English gives the sound reading with no marker. - No
[sic:]on Vicentii, logione, cadem, promerunt. Both printings are sound; the defect is the digitization's. Patch, no marker. - No
[cj:]on morando (0339): see the crux. - No
[d:]anywhere: 0389's Bouillart bracket repeats Zacheus, Theonas and the Portus martyrs because it re-sets the whole entry in another order. That is his reading, not a doubling. - No crux on the Bouillart name variants Yppoliti / Jerosolymorum / ab Jacobo inside the 0389 bracket: they are his readings (M2).
Plate: archive.org patrologiaecurs76unkngoog, leaf = (odd col + 9)/2, held without drift from n224 (439/440) to n347 (685/686). 21 archive pages and 10 Gallica pages opened. Corners and verdicts are in data/briefs/9215-PLATE-READS-0008.json, and plate-vs-twin divergences in data/briefs/9215-PENDING-TEI-PATCHES-0008.md (P1–P7).

⚑ The archive copy clips its margins in this band: the right edge at n230 (col 451) and the left edge at n345 (681) and n347 (685). Gallica fills the gap. Two printings (stint C) are confirmed here as well. At 0621 the line breaks differ (con-|fessores. vs confesso-|res,). Our twin follows the Gallica printing, including its worn sorts at 0609 and 0685A.
Markers fired: none. No [sic:], [var:], [cj:], [ed:] or [d:] in 0008–0011. None is deferred. The reasons are at each site and under "Rejected candidates".
§0 · Decisions
- Adopted wholesale: stint A's §0 and stint C's §0,
## Namesand## Formulas. natalis is "the birthday of", with no gloss (A owns the crux). Day heads follow M1 in the plain form of 0000–0003. - Month heads: MENSIS OCTOBER HABET DIES XXXI. →
OCTOBER HAS 31 DAYS.; MENSIS NOVEMBER HABET DIES XXXI. →NOVEMBER HAS 31 DAYS.(see E1). The twin has both month heads followed by a doubled[0525]/[0641]anchor (one under the month head, one under the Kalends head). Both are kept where they stand. - Day heads: every
Die nagrees with its Roman date. II Idus (0573) → "The day before the Ides", per M1 (never "the second day"). The typographic variants VII. Idus, Die 9. (0555; the archive prints VII Idus., Gallica VII Idus,), VI Kal Die 27., III Non Die 3. and Die 29 / Die 17 without a stop normalize in the English head (Pattern 9, section labels). - Chunk 0010, 13 October (III Id.): the twin carries no column anchor between [0567] and [0573]. That is Migne's layout, not a gap (brief §3), so nothing was added or reported.
Names

Keyed notes
Bouillart's raised-letter notes keyed INSIDE the Usuardus band on pages I opened. None was injected, and no [nt:] added. TSV-ready: leaf · corners · column · key · anchor words from OUR Latin with (a) at the key · full note text as printed. Hyphenated line-ends are joined. All five are keyed "ª" and signed BOUILLART. Each was read at full resolution (archive 3834 px; Gallica 1880 px native).
n224 439/440 0439 a Eodem die [ Apud Bouillart., (a) in pago Tarvenensi In Carolino autographo : Eodem die sancti Bertini abbatis : quod cum contra morem nostri esset, totum versum delevit, minutiorique litterarum forma instauravit, ut esset spatium, quo locum, ubi potissimum Bertinus colebatur, designaret. Apposite autem designatus fuit locus ille his verbis in pago Tarvenensi. Tunc enim monasterium quod primus rexit, aut cujus fabricæ supremam Bertinus imposuit manum, a Tarvenna aliquot leucis distabat. Nunc autem muris Audomaropolis inclusum est. BOUILLART.
- Audomaropolis is set with a stray space (Audomarop olis). The key sits INSIDE Bouillart's own bracket, after Apud Bouillart.,. No space after distabat. before Nunc.
n230 + Gallica f226 451/452 0451 a In territorio Taruanensi, (a) sancti Autmari episcopi Omnium exemplorum, etiam Dervensis, hæc sunt verba : In territorio Tarvennensi. Lituræ tamen inscribuntur in Pratensi. Lituræ igitur omnibus exemplis antiquior facta igitur ab auctore. BOUILLART.
- The archive copy clips the right margin here. The key and the note's right column were read on Gallica f226, and the left column on both copies. igitur is printed twice, as transcribed.
n251 (+ Gallica f247) 493/494 0493 a Apud Beuuarriam, (a) sancti Emerammi episcopi In hoc articulo hæc verba sancti Emerammi lituræ superinducta sunt : item quidquid verborum stupri inter et in pago insertum est. Neutrius tamen lituræ ullum apparet in aliis codicibus vestigium. At quæ correctio omnibus exemplis est vetustior, cui præter quam auctori tribuenda est ? BOUILLART.
- The anchor quotes our twin's Beuuarriam; the plate prints Beuuariam (P2).
n278 (+ Gallica f274) 547/548 0547 a (a) Romae via Appia, depositio beati Marci Purus hic articulus totus. Totus Usuardinus ; nec syllabam repudiat Sollerius, nec apicem addit. Tantum sanctos Marcellum et Apuleum ad ultimum locum rejicit, qui secundo fuerant ab Usuardo collocati. Totus tamen a beati Marci Papæ ad finem obliteratus. Det veniam lector, si sæpius eadem inculcamus, culpamque in Sollerium conferat, qui tametsi tam sæpe lituris abusus fuerit, ut Pratensem codicem traduceret, tot lituras tamen inobservatas relinquit. Affectatum illud Sollerii silentium nostra maxime interest sæpius indicare : quod hinc maxime tota ejus labefactatur censura. Si enim Usuardum æque referunt lituræ, ac loca integra, perspicuum est lituras non posse pro regula esse rejiciendi codicis. Nulla enim est regula quæ veri falsique communis est. Proprium, ut sciscunt logici, in communi signo notari non potest. BOUILLART.
- The key stands BEFORE the first word of the day's entry: the note covers the whole article.
n303 + Gallica f299 597/598 0597 a exceptio sanctorum martyrum Georgii diaconi et Aurelii (a). Addit Dervensis codex : « Hac eadem die depositio sancti Sindulfi confessoris, qui in gymnasio contemptus mundi agonizans volubilem solem vertit in usum ac perfecte ævum præsens despiciens ex toto corde secutus est Christum. Cujus conversio virtutibus et miraculis coruscans cœlibem declarat eum vitam duxisse. Quique duplicem terram efficaciter fugiens atque ab ea exiliens cum patriarchis in lacrymis seminans, fructumque sanctæ conversationis relinquens, cum apostolis seipsum pro Christo mactans, cum martyribus utrasque manus de salo hujus peregrinationis protendens ad litus, cum confessoribus digitos suos implens myrra probatissima cum virginibus animæ suæ sponso respondit cantico novo, quousque illi occurreret super montes aromatum simili capreæ et hinnulo cervorum. » Hæc ducta sunt ex Vita S. Sindulfi, quam nono sæculo scripsit Almannus, monachus Altovillarensis, et edidit Mabillio noster tom. I Act., p. 368. Nemo nescit Altovillarense et Dervense monasteria fuisse a S. Nivardo primum fundata : ex qua affinitate factum est ut communes utriusque festi dies essent. BOUILLART.
- ⚠ The two printings differ in the note. On the archive copy (n303) the note has no key letter at its head (it opens Addit Dervensis codex), and it prints contemplus, perfete and a broken word before de salo that is illegible there. Gallica f299 prints the key ª at the head, contemptus, perfecte and utrasque manus. The text above is Gallica's for those three words and agrees with the archive everywhere else. The band key after Aurelii is on both copies.
Keyed-note count for 0008–0011: 5 (0439, 0451, 0493, 0547, 0597), all ª, all Bouillart's. Pages opened with the band checked and no keyed note: n243, n250, n256 (the 0503 part only; the band runs on to n257, which I did not open), n269, n280, n282, n283 (the 0557 part only; it runs on to n284, which I did not open), n292, n299, n309, n315, n319, n325, n332. On n345 and n347 the left margin is clipped. No key is visible in what survives, and Gallica f343 (0685A) shows none. I did not open Gallica for 0681.
Cruces
E1 · 0641 MENSIS NOVEMBER HABET DIES XXXI. November has thirty days. The plate (n325) sets the head in two display lines, MENSIS NOVEMBER. / HABET DIES XXXI., so the XXXI is Migne's, not the digitization's. The English follows the printed number, "NOVEMBER HAS 31 DAYS." (brief §4: numbers exactly as printed). No [cj:]: the English says exactly what the Latin says, and the reader can see from the Kalends of December (next stint) that the day count runs to 30. The orchestrator may want to weigh this as a Pattern 18 case, since the rendered head asserts something false about the calendar. Pattern 18a's closed census is the reason I did not fire one.
E2 · 0439 Bouillart's bracket [ Apud Bouillart., in pago Tarvenensi, pro Eodem die]. Rendered "[In Bouillart, in the district Tarvenensis, instead of Eodem die]", after C's pro → "instead of". The replaced words stay italic Latin as a locator. His keyed note (above) explains the erasure in the Carolingian autograph.
E3 · 0441 Item Cappadociae urbe Reaten, sancti Cottidi diaconi. Reaten is indeclinable as printed, and Cottidi has an uncertain nominative. Both printed forms are kept (Names). Plate not read (not a candidate site).
E4 · 0503 sub praeside Rictionaro. Plate n256 prints Rictionaro. A and C carry the same persecutor elsewhere as Rictiovarus, from a printed Rictiovaro, and Solier's AUCTARIA on n315 print Rictiovaro too. This band prints n, so the English says Rictionarus, and I made no normalization and no patch (the twin matches the plate). Single copy read. The n/v difference could be a turned sort, so it is logged, not marked.
E5 · 0505 [ Addit Bouillart.: Item sancti Sollempnensis episcopi.] The printed form is kept (Names).
E6 · 0515 qui beatus vir, quantum sibi extiterit parcus … sanctus Hieronymus memorabili prosecutus est relatu. The relative qui is never construed (anacoluthon). Rendered literally, keeping the break: "who, the blessed man, how sparing …, Saint Jerome has set out".
E7 · 0533 Romae ad Ursum pilleatum. A Roman place-name ("at the capped Bear"). Kept italic, in the nominative, "at Ursus pilleatus".
E8 · 0541 In Eumenia, beati Trasei episcopi. Trasei is the genitive of a second-declension Traseus (the Thraseas of Eusebius). Rendered Traseus. Not normalized.
E9 · 0547 stop after consummavit. The plate has it (P3). Carried.
E10 · 0555 gratia-directus. The hyphen is not on either printing (P4).
E11 · 0557 trecentis decem et Octo. The capital O is printed so (n283). It has no English exponent: "three hundred and eighteen".
E12 · 0575 Romae via Aurelia, sancti Fortunati Lugduni, sancti Antiochi episcopi. The plate (n292) prints no stop between the Roman entry and the Lyon entry, exactly as the twin does. The English supplies none (Pattern 8), so it reads "of Saint Fortunatus at Lyon, of Saint Antiochus, bishop", which attaches Lyon to Fortunatus as the printed punctuation does. It is presumably two commemorations (Fortunatus at Rome; Antiochus at Lyon). That is a crux, not a repair.
E13 · 0579 In Africa sanctorum martyrum ducentorum septuaginta, 0593 In Antiochia Syriae sanctorum martyrum. No comma after the place in either. The English supplies none.
E14 · 0609 iujuriam → "injury" (P5, press variant). Ex quibus Germanus Emeritae Servandus vero Hispali conditus est: no comma on either printing. Carried as "Of whom Germanus at Emerita Servandus however at Seville was buried."
E15 · 0621 in epistola ad confessores, Civitate Narbona. A press variant. The twin and Gallica f311 print a comma, and the archive n315 a full stop. Both are clean, so this is crux only. The English keeps the twin's comma and the capital: "…in the letter to the confessors, In the city of Narbonne".
E16 · 0629 multitudinem. Christo. The stop is on neither printing (P6). The English construes the cum-clause whole.
E17 · 0637 sub octavo Kalendarum Septembrium die. An in-entry Roman date with the month printed: "on the eighth day before the Kalends of September" (brief §4). No modern date added.
E18 · 0677 ab imperatore Constantino haeretico; Cersonam Liciae provinciae. Historically, Martin I was seized under Constans II and exiled to Cherson in the Crimea. The text prints Constantino and Liciae, and the English renders both as printed. These are the author's errors, not type (Pattern 7), so no [cj:]: the English says what the Latin says.
E19 · 0685A Emiliam → "Emilianus" (P7, press/wear variant).
E20 · 0689 interempti sunt [ Bouillart., ad oram paginae: Parisius, S. Gendulfi episcopi.]. Turonis. Bouillart's bracket stands before the sentence's full stop, which follows the closing bracket. The English keeps that order. The final bracket, [ Bouillart., S. Eugenii antistitis. Malbodio …], gives his reading of the Toledo entry and then an added entry. It is translated as a clause: "[Bouillart: of Saint Eugenius, prelate. At the monastery Malbodium, …]".
E21 · 0669 statutum est ut anniversaria dies ipsorum sub nominibus supradictorum quinque martyrum recoleretur. The four crowned ones are kept under the names of the FIVE martyrs just above. That is the printed number, and it is rendered so.
E22 · 0613 Felix quinquagesimo sexto annorum virgo obiit. "died a virgin in the fifty-sixth of his years": the printed numeral, no conversion.
E23 · 0441 diuturnos carceris squalores (plural). "long-lasting filth of prison": the formula from A, with the plural having no clean English exponent.
Scripture checked (7a″)
No verse is quoted AS a quotation anywhere in 0439–0689. Allusions, phrase-searched in sources/vulgate/clementine-flat.txt:
- 0537 1 Cor 1:14 nisi Crispum et Caium: ✓ names as in the Vulgate (quorum meminit … Corinthiis scribens). A reference.
- 0551 Lc 2:28 accepit eum in ulnas suas: paraphrase (Dominum suis suscepisse in ulnis). Not a quotation.
- 0629 Mt 10:4 Simon Chananaeus / Mc 3:18 Thaddaeum: the text prints Chananei, Thadei. These are names in an entry, not a quotation, so no
[var:]. - 0605 Salome at the burial (Mc 15:40, 16:1): an allusion.
- 0503 Emmaus (Lc 24:13, Vulg. Emmaus; printed Emaus): an allusion. The name is kept as printed.
- 0661 quemdam psalmum beatus Augustinus videtur exponere: a reference to Augustine, not scripture.
Rejected candidates (and why)
- OCR candidates, all 12 settled at the plate: gloriose/glorioso (0439, worn e: TEI right), Portu/porta (0439: TEI right), ultimum/ult (0451: archive right-margin clipping; Gallica ultimum: TEI right), Narcissi/marcelli (0477: misalignment into Solier; TEI right, but the same line gave P1), Alexandri/quirini (0491: misalignment), variis/uanis (0529: worn i-dots), sanctae/sancta (0551), Romae/rom (0589), diaconi/etc (0597: misalignment; the page gave keyed note 5), conditus/conditas (0609: ink bleed; the line gave P5), fuit/fait (0655), publicum/publicam (0681). All are TEI right.
[sic:]on iujuriam (0609) and Emiliam (0685A). Each is a non-word or wrong form on the Gallica printing that our twin transcribes, and each is sound on the archive printing, so a[sic:]would accuse a plate that another printing of the same page contradicts (orchestrator's change 2). Patches P5 and P7 are filed instead.[sic:]/[d:]on gratia-directus (0555). The hyphen is on neither printing. It is our twin's (P4).[cj:]on the NOVEMBER head XXXI (0641), on Constantino / Liciae (0677), and on Rictionaro (0503). In each the faithful English says exactly what the printed Latin says. See E1, E4 and E18.- Normalizing the printed Rictionarus to A/C's Rictiovarus, or Augustidunum / Augustudunum to C's Augustodunum. The brief's §6 rule: the spelling Migne prints is the text.
- A comma after Fortunati (0575) or after Africa / Syriae (0579, 0593). Pattern 8: never supply.
## E1 RULED (Wilson, 2026-09-22) The November head takes a [cj:]: "NOVEMBER HAS 31 DAYS. [cj: XXXI; read XXX, "thirty"]". The number is Migne's, printed on both copies, and the faithful English would otherwise read as our slip.
Stint F, 2026-09-22. 14 November to 31 December, and the close of the work. Plate: archive.org patrologiaecurs76unkngoog, leaf = (odd col + 9)/2, held without drift from n351 (693/694) to n434 (859/860); Gallica bpt6k54939860, f = (col + 1)/2, held from f348 (695/696) to f429 (857/858). 32 archive pages and 16 Gallica pages opened. Corners and verdicts are in data/briefs/9215-PLATE-READS-0012.json; the one plate-vs-twin divergence is in data/briefs/9215-PENDING-TEI-PATCHES-0012.md (P1).
⚑ The archive copy clips its left margin on n369 (729), n377 (745), n393 (777) and n395 (781), and at n377 the image masks the first words of three band lines; n362 (715) was served at low resolution only. Gallica filled every gap. In this range every non-word met on one printing was on the ARCHIVE printing (quid, quia 0695; beatissima 0719; neo 0829; modosis 0833; socros 0835), with Gallica and our twin sound. So the traffic here runs opposite to stint D's: no class-B patch, and nothing to accuse.
Markers fired: none. No [sic:], [var:], [cj:], [ed:] or [d:] in 0012–0014, and none deferred. One [nt:] (0833): Migne's inline head note [n: (Hic in editione Bouillartii incipit annus.)] is prose and is translated in place, Pattern 15. No Bouillart keyed note was injected.
§0 · Decisions
- Adopted wholesale: A's §0, C's §0, and the
## Namesand## Formulasof A, C, D and E. natalis is "the birthday of", never glossed (A owns the crux). - Month head (0755): MENSIS DECEMBER HABET DIES XXXI. →
DECEMBER HAS 31 DAYS.The archive sets it on two display lines, MENSIS DECEMBER. / HABET DIES XXXI., with a stop the twin lacks; the English normalizes as C and D did for JULIUS./AUGUSTUS. (Pattern 9). Gallica f378 did not load (two timeouts), so the stop is single-witness and nothing rests on it. - Doubled anchor
[0755]under the month head and again under Kalendis: kept, as D and E kept theirs. - Day heads: every
Die nagrees with its Roman date in our twin (November: 32 − d before the December Kalends; December: Nones 5, Ides 13, 33 − d before the January Kalends). The archive's head at 0711 reads XII Kal. … Die 19.; Gallica and our twin read XIII: that printing's fault, and no M1 crux arises (as C's 0081). XV Kal. Die 17 (0703) prints without a stop; normalized in the English head. - The head note at 0833 is rendered
[nt: (Here, in Bouillart's edition, the year begins.)]in the same place in the head (between the Roman date and the modern one). It is Migne's own inline note, not one of Bouillart's keyed foot notes, and it says something, so Pattern 15 applies. It and Bouillart's keyed note (a) on the same entry (below) say the same thing from two sides. - The close of the work (0857): Et tandem claudunt extremum festa Decembrem. is a plain line, translated "And at length the feasts close December, the last." It is Wandalbert's closing verse (Molan's auctarium on n434: Repeto ultimum Wandalberti versiculum, Martyrologii totius conclusionem), printed as one centred line, so it stays one unlineated line (Pattern 8a). AD MAJOREM DEI GLORIAM. (italic caps) → TO THE GREATER GLORY OF GOD.
- The Christmas proclamation (0835) keeps the plate's capitals, which are small capitals on the page:
JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD IS BORN in BETHLEHEM OF JUDAH in the forty-second year …. Bethleem Judae → "Bethlehem of Judah" after E.
Readings rendered from the plate (patch filed)
- 0807 Agricofae (twin) → Agricolae (both printings, n408 + f404). English "Agricola". P1.
Press variants between two SOUND printings (crux only, English follows our TEI = Gallica)
- 0695 Cristophori (Gallica = TEI) / Christophori (archive). Same English, "Christopher".
- 0729 Item Romae. sancti Crescentiani (stop; Gallica = TEI) / Romae, sancti (archive). The English carries the stop and the lower-case word after it: "Also at Rome. of Saint Crescentianus" (as A carried In Africa. sanctorum).
- 0781 [Bouillart , (Gallica = TEI) / [Bouillart. (archive). Immaterial.

- 0829 Domni Childeberti (Gallica = TEI) / Domini Childeberti (archive). English "the lord Childebert" either way.
- 0857 the Bouillart bracket closes principis.] on Gallica and in our TEI; the archive sets no closing bracket. The English keeps the closed bracket.
Archive-printing faults, Gallica and TEI sound (no patch, no marker)
quid apud pagum, quia quinto decimo (0695), beatissima Rufi (0719), neo sacrificare (0829), fustibus modosis (0833), socros virginum choros (0835). Each was read on both printings; each is the archive printing's own worn or foul sort. Our twin is right at all six.
Text cruces (rendered as printed; no marker)
- 0693 de superioribus eum praecipitarent: "cast him headlong from the heights". Theodoti, et Philomini: the comma before et is carried.

- 0699 diu intra septa speluncae sponte clausus, Christo servivit deinde, apud praefatam urbem, revelante angelo, in pontificali cathedra solemniter collocatus est. There is no conjunction between servivit and collocatus est, and the comma after deinde binds it to servivit. Plate-confirmed (n354). Rendered as printed: "served Christ afterwards, at the aforesaid city, an angel revealing it, was solemnly set in the pontifical chair." Nothing supplied.
- 0703 Aurelianis, sancti Aniani episcopi et confessoris cujus mortem in conspectu Domini pretiosam: no comma before cujus; none supplied.
- 0711 Item sancti Fausti diaconi, hic grandaevus et plenus dierum confessor perdurans: the sentence changes construction after the comma (genitive entry, then hic + a finite verb).

- 0715 ubique fustibus mactatus: printed ubique, "everywhere", on Gallica and in the twin (the archive leaf is low-res here). ibique ("and there") is the expected sense after Sardiniam deportatus. Rendered literally, "slain with cudgels everywhere". The English is odd but asserts nothing the author denies, so it is below Pattern 18's bar. Crux only. Cabilone (Chalon): nominative uncertain (Cabilo? Cabillonum? cf. D's Cabilonis), so the printed form is kept: "At Cabilone". Ampeli: Ampelus, or a contracted Ampelius; printed form kept: "of Saints Ampeli and Gaius".
- 0725 [ Interserit Bouillart.: In Italia, beati Columbani abbatis, multorum fundatoris coenobiorum]: the archive shows a stray
[before fundatoris; Gallica and our twin do not. Columbanus is announced on the 21st in the main text as well; Bouillart's keyed note discusses the doubling. Not a dittography (his bracket is a witness). - 0733 fere cum clericis et laicis, sexcenti sexaginta: fere stands before the phrase; kept in place, "about, with clerics and laymen, six hundred and sixty". capite obtruncatur → "is cut off by the head" (C's literal formula for capite truncatur).
- 0741 Novissime beatum Agricolam interemerunt: the master is killed last, after the torments of Vitalis, as printed. isdem (= idem) → "the same".
- 0743 Sostenes: printed so (Vulg. 1 Cor 1:1 Sosthenes), used as a genitive. Kept as printed, like C's Hermen and D's Feben.
- 0751 ab Egea proconsule: the nominative (Egeas? Aegeas?) is uncertain; printed form kept, "by the proconsul Egea". Scithiam → Scithia (after E).
- 0761 execrabile duxit Christianorum neci deservire cruentus: cruentus is nominative, agreeing with Cassianus. Rendered "held it execrable to serve, bloodstained, the slaughter of Christians". exceptoris … officium → "the office of a recorder".
- 0771 gravissimis in innumeris suppliciis excruciati: plate-confirmed (n390). The in stands between the two adjectives, where et is expected. Rendered as printed: "tortured with most grievous, in innumerable, punishments". illud memorabile fertur quod imperatorem Constantinum ab interitu quorumdam, longe constitutus, ad misericordiam et monitis per visum deflexit et minis: rendered in the printed order.
- 0775 qui cum esset militaris et prohiberet …, clamor repente totius vulgi adversus eum extollitur: an anacoluthon (qui never gets a verb); kept. capite pro pietate damnatus est → "condemned to the loss of his head for piety".
- 0777 qui et ipse … trecentos quadraginta duos martyres manu sua sepelivit: the relative's antecedent is Calistus or the pope; kept ambiguous as printed.
- 0781 The anchor
[0783]stands inside Bouillart's bracket (dura [ Bouillart, [0783] dira]) and stays there: "the harsh [Bouillart, [0783] dira] custody of prison". - 0785 crudelissime caesi deinde in carcerem: no comma before deinde; none supplied.
- 0789 tarincas: a rare word (iron points, spits). Rendered "iron spikes". per eorum corpora jaculari has no object: "to shoot through their bodies", nothing supplied.
- 0793 clarus miraculis coronatus quievit: "illustrious for miracles, crowned, he rested". non segniter: negation carried ("not slothfully").
- 0797 nullatenus … nec funibus additis, aut boum paribus plurimis; nil laesa: every negation carried ("by no means", "nor", "harmed in nothing").
- 0803 defensione sanctimonii: sanctimonium, "holiness" (a real neuter by-form of sanctimonia); rendered "the defence of holiness". nullus eum neque in domo neque in agro: all three negations carried.
- 0807 Naulis: nominative uncertain (Naulis? Naulus?); printed form kept.
- 0813 passio sancti Moysetis martyris, Turonis, sancti Gatiani: a comma where a full stop is expected, on the archive and in our twin (Gallica not read here; both printings would need to differ for a patch, and the English carries it either way). Carried: "martyr, At Tours".
- 0825 et contemneret; praeacuta sude: the semicolon is carried.
- 0833 cardis ferreis in genibus percussus: "struck on the knees with iron cards" (cardus, a carding comb or teasel). Solier's VARIANTES on n421: Quid per cardos intelligatur, docet Molani adnotatio.
- 0835 ebdomada (Bouillart's bracket, both printings) and hebdomada (his keyed note): both printed; "week" either way.
- 0843 sexagesimo octavo … nonagesimo nono: "sixty-eighth", "ninety-ninth", as printed.
- 0857 gladio caesa est [ Addit Bouillart.: jussu Aureliani principis.] Retiariae: no stop before the bracket; the bracket's own stop closes the sentence (as C22).

`` n364 719/720 0719 a ad Romanos scribit. (a) Apud Neocorensem civitatem Hic Sollerius primum notat de suo, Pratensem codicem hoc die et duobus sequentibus a puris, imo ab omnibus ferme codicibus recedere. Ego, qui die sequenti nullam in codice lituram videbam, non manum aliam, non aliud attramentum, statim admirari, vertere folium, Sollerianum textum percurrere, scire avidus quid vitio censor Pratensi daret. Nihil a Pratensi diversum. Sed quid animi fuit cum hæc legi statim post textum : Undecumque puri sunt Pratensis, Heriniensis, etc. Fateor, vix risum tenere potui. Pergo legere varias lectiones hujus diei XXI : Turbatissima ibi omnia esse oportet, cum testetur Castellanus, ad XXII de sola Cæcilia agi : porro XXIII expunctum rursus textum totum, etc. Tum de Columbano, etc., ad XXIV observatur diversa manus ; unde ferme posset conjici eamdem omnino esse quæ XIX, XXI, XXII et XXIII, hujus mensis, in textus omnes grassatur. Credit lector hæc serio dici, et incipit Pratensi codici timere ex illo Castellani testimonio. Quæso, oculos conjiciat in alteram e regione paginam, omni timore liberabitur. Ego, inquit Sollerius, in Auctariis, hoc et duobus sequentibus diebus Castellani novissimo testimonio innitendum non putavi. Præclaram censuram ? Cætera videamus. Primum stomachatur Sollerius hic additam fuisse Mariam Neocorensem : nullo tamen argumento sanctæ virginis mortem die I hujus mensis potius quam hoc die consignandum esse. Deinde affirmat Columbanum ab Usuardo hic fuisse memoratum. Fateor satius futurum fuisse Columbanum relinquere quo illum loco primum annuntiaverat. Nam, teste Jona Vitæ auctore, sanctus ille abbas hoc die mortem obiit. Sed majorem, quam Adoni, fidem habuit Usuardus Kalendario quod Ludovici Pii tempore conditum fuit pro quibusdam Galliarum ecclesiis, quæ ritum Romanum a Carolo Magno præscriptum amplecti vellent ; forte etiam incidit in Gellonense Martyrologium, quod et ipsum non hoc die, sed XXIII hujus mensis sanctum Columbanum memorat. Demetrius et Honorius sumuntur ex Hieronymianis Indicibus, qui undecim alios addunt, saltem in perantiquo nostro codice. BOUILLART. n367 725/726 0725 a Interserit Bouillart.: (a) In Italia, beati Columbani Pugnat Sollerius Columbanum non fuisse hodie ab Usuardo memoratum. Argumenta duo sunt. Primum ex Adonis auctoritate ducit, quem certus est de Columbano mentionem fecisse medius tertius. Alterum vero est dies mortis Columbani, quem diem esse hujus mensis XXI testatur Ionas, Vitæ scriptor. Jam dixi non semel, Usuardus erraverit necne, nihil nostra interesse, propter errata quædam opus auctori abjudicari non posse : quod tamen ultimum argumentum ita malum judico, ut Sollerii causa bonum esse vellem. De isto articulo nescio quid Sollerium admonuerit Chamillartus, sed in Auctariis video legisse illum aliter atque Castellanus legit. Quod certe non capio, inquit Sollerius, nisi a tempore Sirmondi nova interpolatio accesserit. Tam atrocem accusationem ulciscerer, nisi iratus essem. BOUILLART. n387 765/766 0765 a pago Bituricensi, sancti Syrani (a) abbatis Syrani commemoratio a prima manu sine ulla litura, addita tamen, sed ab Usuardo. Notus est ille Syranus aut Sigirannus. Ejus gesta Labbeus in Bibliotheca et Mabillio in Actis Benedictinis juris publici fecerunt. BOUILLART. n396 783/784 0783 a dira], carceris custodia macerata (a), cum Hoc loco folium ex codice avulsum est. Sed qui illud restituit, quia majoribus litteris usus est, hunc articulum imperfectum reliquit et plus media parte truncum. Quæ deerant, ex codice Pratensi B. supplevit Sollerius. Laudo factum et imitor. BOUILLART. n417 825/826 0825 a Bouillart.: (a) Civitate Hostia, sancti Basilei Fateor Basileum hic non bene fuisse ab Usuardo annuntiatum. Nam si Hieronymia nos indices secutus est, scribere debuit : Civitate Hostia, SS. Demetrii, Honorati (nam de Floro nulla mentio in pervetusto nostro codice) ; aut si Basileum animus erat commemorare, non Hostiam sed Antiochiam civitatem assignari oportebat. Quærenti hujus errati causam, in mentem rediit diei XXI Novembris, ubi legeram : Civitate Hostia, sanctorum martyrum Demetrii et Honorii. Statim evolvi nostrum Hieronymiani Martyrologii codicem qui ad ætatem Usuardi proxime accedit, quemque verisimile est ex illo exscriptum esse, quem Usuardus in suo scribendo consuluit. Ibi utroque die, id est XXI Novembris et XXII Decembris, memoratos video eosdem sanctos ex iisdem versibus, Hostiæ, SS. Demetrium et Honorium, Antiochiæ, sanctum Basileum, hoc uno discrimine, quod XXII Decembris pro Honorius legatur Honoratus. Equidem conjicio ex illa sanctorum urbiumque similitudine errorem fluxisse. Fortasse Usuardus articulum suum clauserat SS. Demetrii et Honorati commemoratione. Postea in memoriam rediens eosdem sanctos XXI die Novembris fuisse consignatos, vitium scriptoris suspicatus delevit quod scripserat (nam falso monuit Castellanus nullam esse lituram), sanctum Basileum subrogavit, et memoriæ lapsu pro Antiochia scripsit Hostia. Ut ut est, nihil inde auctoritatis amittit Pratensis codex qui autographi loco habebitur, donec erunt qui ex fonte haurire malint quam rivulos consectari. BOUILLART. n421 833/834 0833 a (a) Vigilia natalis Domini. Apud Antiochiam Pratenses mss. omnes, uno excepto, juxta morem antiquum Usuardi nostri ævo usitatum, annum hic incipiunt, quos sequuntur innumeri alii. Martyrologium tamen Sollerii a Circumcisione Domini, id est a Kalendis Januarii, initium ducit. BOUILLART. n422+n423 835/836+837/838 0835 a interserit Bouillart.: (a) ebdomada, juxta Danielis Sollerio non placet quod Usuardinus codex Pratensis cum non nullis aliis, inter, anno Cæsaris Augusti XLII et olympiadis CXCIII legat, hebdomada, juxta Danielis prophetiam, LXVI. Hæc verba ad textum pertinere non existimat, eo quod in quinque codicibus, quos hoc in loco puros censet, minime reperiantur. At hi codices Pratensi inferiores ætate sunt. Uter vero alteri est anteponendus, fons rivulo, an fonti rivulus ? Cur cæteri codices non habeant, nescio. Nam nulla hic litura est in Pratensi. Suspicor primum ab Usuardo fuisse scripta ; sed cum dictavit offerendum regi Martyrologium, hac de re opinionum varietate territum timuisse, ne quid incerti traderet. BOUILLART. n433 857/858 0857 a illustrem fecerunt. (a) Et in eadem urbe Prat. codicem cum Antuerp.-Maj. et Rosweyd. excedere contendit Sollerius eo quod post cæsa est addant jussu Aureliani principis. Quis non videat hæc ab ipso auctore esse descripta, ut tempus sanctæ Columbæ martyrii accuratius demonstraretur ? Hæc verba, jussu Aureliani principis, loco quidem eraso, sed prima scripta sunt manu. Lectionem eamdem habent codices Pratenses B et D, Colbert. B, Victorin. B, Conchensis, Pontisar., Sandionys. et Montisburgensis. Notandum in eodem hoc articulo hæc verba, qui a pontifice Romano ad etc. in litura versari, cujus nullum in Dervensi codice vestigium, quæque adeo ante oblatum Carolo Martyrologium facta fuerat. Duæ sunt igitur in isto articulo lituræ diversi temporis. Eruditos rogo inspectum veniant an diversa scriptura sit. BOUILLART. ``

- n433 (0857): archive, key confirmed on Gallica f429. a ccuratius has a broken c (read, not guessed: accuratius). The signature's R is damaged (BOUILLA?T.) but the word is clear.
Pages opened with the band checked and no keyed note: n351, n352/f348, n354, n356, n360/f356, f358 (n362 was low-res), n369/f365, n371, n377/f373, n378/f374, n380, n382, n390, n392, n393, n394, n395/f391, n405/f401, n408/f404, f405, n411, n414, n419/f415, n434. Leaves in n351–n434 opened on NEITHER copy, so any band they carry was not surveyed for keyed notes: n353, n355, n357–359, n361, n363, n365–366, n368, n370, n372–376, n379, n381, n383–386, n388–389, n391, n397–404, n406–407, n410, n412–413, n415–416, n418, n420, n424–432. (n409, cols 809/810, was read on Gallica f405.) The eight notes above sit on eight of the ~35 band pages opened.
Scripture checked (brief §5, 7a″)
No verse is quoted AS a quotation anywhere in 0693–0857. References and echoes were phrase-searched in sources/vulgate/clementine-flat.txt:
- 0719 Rufi, de quo apostolus Paulus ad Romanos scribit: Rom 16:13 Salutate Rufum ✓ reference.
- 0719 quievit in senectute bona; 0711 plenus dierum; 0715 plenus dierum atque virtutum: echo Gn 15:15 / 25:8, 1 Par 29:28 (in senectute bona, plenus dierum). Epithets, not quotations.
- 0703 mortem in conspectu Domini pretiosam: echoes Ps 115:6 (Clementine numbering; Pretiosa in conspectu Domini mors sanctorum ejus). Allusion, as A treated it at 0763.
- 0743 Sostenes … cujus mentionem facit idem Apostolus scribens Corinthiis: 1 Cor 1:1 Sosthenes frater ✓ reference; the spelling is the printed text's (above).
- 0807 Trium puerorum, Ananiae, Azariae et Misaelis: Dn 1:6–7, 3:88 ✓ names.
- 0809 Lazari, quem Dominus Jesus in Evangelio legitur resuscitasse a mortuis: Jo 12:1, 9 (quem suscitavit Jesus a mortuis) ✓ reference, paraphrased.
- 0835 in Bethleem Judae: Mt 2:5 In Bethlehem Judae ✓ phrase. Bouillart's ebdomada … sexagesima sexta, juxta Danielis prophetiam: Dn 9:25–26 counts hebdomades septem, et hebdomades sexaginta duae; the bracket's sixty-sixth week is its own computation, not a quotation. No
[var:]. - 0839 Stephen stoned by the Jews (Act 7:58); 0847 the Innocents ab Herode rege (Mt 2:16); 0849 cujus meminit Paulus scribens ad Timotheum: 2 Tim 4:20 Trophimum autem reliqui infirmum Mileti ✓ reference. 0829 Servulus is from Gregory (Dial. IV / Hom. in Ev. 15), not scripture. No
[var:]was warranted.
Rejected candidates, and why
- Every OCR candidate in range (17 at 15 leaves): qui 0695, pretiosae 0703, Hostia 0719, Tusciae 0729, cum 0745, omni 0747, ultimum 0751, Dariae and obrui. 0755, head Idus. 0775, head Die 0801, Tuscia, 0807, illum 0819, nec 0829, fecerunt. 0857: TEI right at all of them (OCR noise, misalignment into Solier's commentary, or the archive printing's own fault at qui/quid and nec/neo, where Gallica = TEI). The one real divergence in range, Agricofae 0807, was not on the candidate list; it was found by reading the candidate leaf n408.
- No
[sic:]on quid, quia, beatissima, neo, modosis, socros. Each is a non-word or wrong word on the archive printing only; Gallica and our twin are sound. Nothing to mark, nothing to patch. - No
[sic:]on Agricofae. Both printings are sound; the defect is the digitization's (P1). - No
[cj:]on ubique (0715), in innumeris (0771) or deinde (0699). The faithful English is odd, but asserts nothing the author denies (Pattern 18's bar), and none involves a negation or a correlative. - No
[d:]on the doubled Rufus and Columbanus entries (0719, 0725). The second copies are Bouillart's bracketed witness (M2), not dittography. - No crux on Christophori, Domini, the stops at 0729, 0801, 0807, or the bracket at 0857 beyond the press-variant list above: two sound printings, and the twin follows Gallica.
