De gemino paschate

Garbled, doubtful, or impossible readings in Migne's plate, logged here. The English renders what the plate prints, per translation-style.md Pattern 7: a printed reading that is construable is rendered literally even where it is odd or says the opposite of what the argument requires, and type that is not a word at all is carried into the English untranslated, in italics. The conjectured reading is recorded here and only here; it is never applied to the running text. (This replaces the earlier src/english/10103/cruces.md convention of rendering "the intended reading," under which parts of this work were first translated; those places were re-rendered from the plate on 2026-07-28.) Note contents ([n: …]) and bare parenthetical citations always pass through verbatim and untranslated, so citation errors are flagged here only.

Structural / editorial

• Work title vs. heads. The work is catalogued as De gemino paschate, but Migne's own heads are two sermons: SERMO IN RAMIS PALMARUM. (chunks 0000–0002, cols 1059A–1067B) and SERMO IN DIE PASCHAE. (chunks 0003–0004, cols 1067C–1074B). Both heads translated 1:1; the work: field left as the frontmatter has it. A human should decide whether the site TOC presents this as one work with two sermons.

• cols 1059A–1060A (chunk 0000) — this work's opening columns overlap the closing columns of 11534 (De differentia sacrificii Abrahae…, whose last anchors are 1059A and 1060A). The two works share the column range in Migne's plate; reproduced as printed on both sides, not reconciled.

• col. 1073B → 1074A (chunk 0004) — the column sequence jumps from 1073B straight to 1074A; there are no 1073C–D anchors in the TEI. Reproduced as printed; not an error on our side.

Chunk 0000 (Palm Sunday sermon)

• col. 1059B — Vinae florentes odorem dederunt (Cant. 2:13). Vinae is not a Latin word; the intended reading is Vineae ("vines"), which the Vulgate has. Carried through untranslated per Pattern 7: "the flowering Vinae have given their odor." (The clause sits inside an italicized scripture quotation, so the carried form takes no further italic marker.)

• col. 1060A — (Num. [1060A] XXIII) — a bare parenthetical citation, not an [n: …] note, with a column anchor falling inside it. Both kept exactly as printed and untranslated.

• col. 1060C — Cur, quaeso, homines in hoc pascha florido conveniunt, nisi ut processionem pro more faciant! Migne closes an interrogative with an exclamation mark. Reproduced as printed.

• col. 1061A, note — [n: (Eccle. II)] on Oculi sapientiae in capite ejus = Eccles. 2:14, whose text is Sapientis oculi in capite ejus ("the eyes of the wise man"). Migne prints sapientiae; rendered as printed, "the eyes of wisdom."

• col. 1061A–B — Vide ergo quomodo processit, vel qua te via praecessit certe paschalis ista hodiernae festivitatis processio, quae generaliter sit ex operum ejus recordatione, vel imitatione processit. The sentence is broken: no punctuation after praecessit, a subjunctive sit where fit is required, and processit apparently duplicating praecessit. Rendered as literally as the printed words allow, sit included: "which generally may be out of the remembrance or the imitation of his works, proceeded." (An earlier draft rendered sit as fit, "which arises generally out of…"; corrected 2026-07-28 under Pattern 7.) A human read-through may want an apparatus note.

• col. 1061C — Servate, fratres, unitatem fidei in vinculo pacis for Eph. 4:3, unitatem Spiritus. Rendered as printed, "the unity of faith."

• col. 1061C — Denique quintum in nobis est, habeamus pacem cum omnibus. quintum is a real word ("fifth") and is rendered as printed — "a fifth thing is in us" — though nothing in the sermon numbers a fifth of anything. The intended reading is certainly quantum ("as far as in us lies," cf. Rom. 12:18), which the following habeamus pacem cum omnibus echoes verbatim.

• col. 1062A — illos perfecit electio humana. Rendered as printed, "Human election perfected the former." The intended reading is praefecit ("set them over"): the parallel member is istos extulit ordinatio divina, and the surrounding argument is about who is set over whom, not about perfection — which human election conspicuously does not confer.

• col. 1062B — Nam et ὄλεον apud Graecos misericordiam sonat. The Greek for "mercy" is ἔλεος; Migne prints ὄλεον (assimilated to oleum, which is in fact the point Richard is making). The Greek is reproduced verbatim as printed.

Chunk 0001 (Palm Sunday sermon, cont.)

• col. 1063C–D — Sed si non oculis hominum se humiliare vel contemptibile apparere erubescit, matrem quidem praesentem habet, sed usque adhuc pulli praesentia caruit. Rendered as printed, non and all: "But if he does not blush to humble himself before the eyes of men…" — which asserts the opposite of the sentence's own conclusion, since the man who does not blush to be humbled is precisely the one who has the colt. The non is intrusive and the intended reading omits it; the evidence is the next sentence, Si te exterius humilias, sed magnum aliquid de te existimas, pullum habes, sed matrem non habes, which sets up the reverse case.

• col. 1063D — Alioquin si te ficte humilias, et fraudulenter incedis, eum, secundum prophetae sententiam… eum is a word (accusative "him") but has no construction here — the apodosis is a scripture quotation with no verb to govern it. Rendered as printed, "him," which leaves the English as stranded as the Latin. The intended reading is tum ("then"), a single-letter slip.

• col. 1063D–1064A — Constat namque quia inter pares maxime nasci solet invidia, et ex invidia discordia? Migne closes a statement with a question mark. Reproduced as printed.

• col. 1064B — humilationis suae materiam. humilationis is not a word (a dropped syllable in humiliationis, which the same paragraph prints correctly). Carried through untranslated per Pattern 7: "the matter of their humilationis."

• col. 1064C — (Job XXVII) — bare parenthetical citation, not an [n: …] note; kept verbatim and untranslated. Likewise (Rom. [1066A] V) at 1066A, with a column anchor falling inside the citation.

Chunk 0002 (Palm Sunday sermon, cont.)

• col. 1066B — libenter, ut arbitror, nos humiliamus, sive verae humiliationis fructum attendimus. Rendered as printed, "or if we consider the fruit of true humiliation" — a disjunction the sentence has no second member for. The intended reading is si ("if"): the clause states the condition on which we humble ourselves gladly.

• col. 1067A, note — [n: (Matth. XI)] on Non veni mittere pacem in terram, sed gladium = Matt. 10:34. Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1067A, note — [n: (Joan. XII)] on Pacem relinquo vobis, pacem meam do vobis = John 14:27 — and Migne cites the very same verse correctly as (Joan. XIV) a few lines earlier at 1066D. Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1067B — Quid de secunda ad tertiam, secundum jam transitum fecit. Rendered as printed, "What from the second to the third, he has now made the second passage…," which is not a sentence. The intended reading is Qui (with a verb of passing understood), matching the three preceding sentences, each of which opens Qui….

• col. 1067B — Ecce de floribus, ecce de fructibus tentamus: istos desideremus, illos, ut in aeternum fuit, mereamur. Both italicized stretches are doubtful: tentamus is probably tetigimus ("we have touched on"), and ut in aeternum fuit is unconstruable (perhaps ut in aeternum fruamur). Rendered as literally as the printed words allow.

Chunk 0003 (Easter sermon)

• col. 1069A, note — [n: (Luc. XXIII)] on Ecce ejicio daemonia, et perficio sanitates = Luke 13:32. Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1067C — utrum aqua quam vobis propinabo fluat de medio fontium — the antithesis requires something other than "fountains" on the near side of the an (Migne's second member is de fontibus Salvatoris). Rendered as printed.

• col. 1068A — non solum majoris vel partis, sed etiam inferioris. partis is construable ("of a part") and is rendered as printed, "not only that of a greater or of a part, but even of an inferior," which breaks the series. The intended reading is paris ("an equal"): the greater / equal / inferior triad is Richard's standing formula in this work (cf. 1061D, alios superiores, alios inferiores, alios autem pares).

• col. 1069D — Unde sancti jam mortem timent, sed cupiunt dissolvi et esse cum Christo. Rendered as printed: "Whence the saints now fear death, but desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ" — the exact opposite of the argument, which has just said that the Savior homines a timore mortis eripuit. A negative has dropped out; the intended reading is jam non timent, which the adversative sed and the whole preceding paragraph require.

Chunk 0004 (Easter sermon, cont.)

• col. 1070C — Ubi ergo non est fides, nec justitia, ibi non est justitia nec vita. The clause is garbled by haplography; the intended chain is ubi non est fides, nec justitia; ubi non est justitia, nec vita. Rendered as printed.

• col. 1070D, note — [n: (Philipp. XXI)] = Philipp. 2:9. Philippians has four chapters, so XXI is impossible; the intended reading is II. Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1071D, note — [n: (Psal. XCV)] on Honor regis judicium diligit = Ps. 98:4 (Vulg. 98). Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1072D, note — [n: (Psal. XXXVI)] on Exsurge gloria mea, exsurge psalterium et cithara = Ps. 56:9 (Vulg.). Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1072D, note — [n: (I Cor. XXI)] on Vir est imago et gloria Dei = I Cor. 11:7. First Corinthians has sixteen chapters, so XXI is impossible. Verbatim; flagged.

• col. 1071D — psalterium vero sonat a superiori, et ideo signifiat bonorum operum exhibitionem. signifiat is not a word; the intended reading is significat, which the immediately preceding parallel clause (et ideo significat vitiorum mortificationem) prints correctly. Carried through untranslated per Pattern 7: "and therefore signifiat the showing forth of good works."

• col. 1072B — Reus peccati est aliquis, id est, dignius ut pro peccato puniatur. dignius is a real form (comparative, neuter/adverbial) and is rendered as printed, "more deserving that he be punished for the sin," though nothing here is being compared. The intended reading is dignus, which the answering clause two lines later prints correctly (dignus ut caput amittat).

• col. 1072C — Iste igitur tres auctoritates … intelligendae sunt for Istae (feminine plural, agreeing with auctoritates; the participle intelligendae is feminine, so the slip is confined to the demonstrative). Not an emendation in the English: the demonstrative has no gender exponent in English, so "These three authorities" renders Iste and Istae alike. Logged for the Latin record only.

• col. 1072D — Panis azymus absque fermento est, si gignat sinceritatem. si gignat is construable ("if it begets") and is rendered as printed: "Unleavened bread is without leaven, if it begets sincerity." The intended reading is significat, wrongly divided by the compositor — the answering sentence (Per hoc autem quod est solidus, designat veritatem) has the same shape, and the bread signifies rather than begets.

• col. 1072D — Sinceritas partim ad citharam, veritas ad psalterium. partim ("partly") is a real word and is rendered as printed, "Sincerity partly to the cithara, truth to the psaltery," leaving the sentence without a verb. The intended reading is pertinet ("pertains"), which the parallel member (veritas ad psalterium, verb understood) supplies.

PL 196 polarity sweep (2026-07-28)

Sites found by the volume-wide sweep for sense-reversing defects (dropped or intrusive negations, and single letters that invert a claim). All are Migne's; all are rendered literally per Pattern 7. Entries already discussed above are repeated here so the class can be read in one place.

### 1063C — added-negative (high confidence) Printed: Sed si non oculis hominum se humiliare vel contemptibile apparere erubescit, matrem quidem praesentem habet, sed usque adhuc pulli praesentia caruit.

Conjecture: Sed si oculis hominum se humiliare vel contemptibilis apparere erubescit (delete non)

The scheme is a fixed pair: 'Duo sunt, humilitas et humiliatio: humilitas in asina, humiliatio designatur in pullo' — she-ass = inward humility, colt = outward humiliation. The man who does NOT blush to humble himself outwardly is exactly the man who HAS the colt. The very next sentence states the converse member and fixes the polarity: 'Si te exterius humilias, sed magnum aliquid de te existimas, pullum habes, sed matrem non habes.' Mother-without-colt therefore requires the man who DOES blush at outward humiliation; the printed 'non' inverts the member and collapses the pair into a self-contradiction.

### 1069D — dropped-non (high confidence) Printed: Unde sancti jam mortem timent, sed cupiunt dissolvi et esse cum Christo.

Conjecture: Unde sancti jam mortem non timent

The 'Unde' draws its conclusion from the immediately preceding clause: 'Salvator vero voluntarie mortem suscepit, et moriendo mortem destruxit, et sic homines a timore mortis eripuit' — Christ snatched men away from the FEAR of death; the inference cannot be that the saints now fear it. The adversative 'sed cupiunt dissolvi et esse cum Christo' (Phil. 1:23) makes no contrast with 'timent' and demands a negated first member. Contrast also the state before the remedy, stated just above: 'homines timore obnoxii erant... et quaelibet patiebantur ne morerentur.'
