AUGUST 28 β ST. AUGUSTINE, Bishop and Doctor
For a long time he struggled between the violence of his passions and the force of divine grace; but having read a passage in St. Paul to which a heavenly voice directed him, the battle was at an end, and the prayer of St. Monica granted. He was baptized by St. Ambrose; and having returned to Hippo, his native town, he was made priest and, eventually, bishop and doctor of the Church. He died in 430 in such strict poverty that he made no will, having nothing left to bequeath.

| 2 |  AUGUST 28 β ST. AUGUSTINE, Bishop and Doctor
AUGUSTINE, the gifted son of St. Monica and the pagan Patricius, from his early years displayed a wonderful genius and thirst for knowledge. Having become entangled in his youth in the bonds of heresy and vice, he would have been lost but for the prayers and tears of his devoted mother. He was teaching at Milan when the eloquence of St. Ambrose attracted him to a Catholic church.

AUGUST 28 β ST. AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO
He persisted in his irregular life until he was thirty-two. Being then at Milan professing rhetoric, he tells us that the faith of his childhood had regained possession of his intellect, but that he could not as yet resolve to break the chains of evil habit. One day, however, stung to the heart by the account of some sudden conversions, he cried out, "The unlearned rise and storm heaven, and we, with all our learning, for lack of heart lie wallowing here." He then withdrew into a garden, when a long and terrible conflict ensued. Suddenly a young fresh voice (he knows not whose) breaks in upon his strife with the words, "Take and read ;" and he lights upon the passage beginning, " Walk honestly as in the day." The battle was won. He received baptism, returned home, and gave all to the poor. At Hippo, where he settled, he was consecrated bishop in 395. For thirty-five years he was the centre of ecclesiastical life in Africa, and the Church's mightiest champion against heresy; whilst his writings have been everywhere accepted as one of the principal sources of devotional thought and theological speculation. He died in 430.
REFLECTION. β Read the lives of the Saints, and you will find that you are gradually creating a society about you to which in some measure you will be forced to raise the standard of your daily life.

St. AUGUSTINE was born in 354, at Tagaste in Africa. He was brought up in the Christian faith, but without receiving baptism. An ambitious school-boy of brilliant talents and violent passions, he early lost both his faith and his innocence.

Glorious Pope of the Eucharist, St. Pius X, thou didst seek to "restore all things in Christ." Obtain for me a true love of Jesus so that I may only live for Him. Help me to acquire a lively fervor and a sincere will to strive for sanctity of life, and that I may avail myself of the riches of the Holy Eucharist, which is sacrifice and sacrament. By thy love for Mary, my Mother and Queen, inflame my heart with a tender devotion to her.

AUGUST 27 β ST. CESARIUS, Bishop
Having been falsely accused of conspiring against the state, he was exiled from his diocese by Alaric and Theodoric successively; but both times the false charges were made to redound to the glory of the gentle bishop, and he was welcomed back to his see with open arms, the last time loaded with the costly gifts of Theodoric, which Cesarius at once disposed of in order to give the proceeds to his beloved poor. He died in 542.

Far off he descries an Elysium blest,
With gush of clear fountains, and music, and rest;

And points all his hopes to the country of souls.

ST. CESARIUS was the archbishop of Arles in the sixth century. The gentleness of his character found expression in his writings; and his piety established public ceremonies in his diocese which were admirably organized. His charity was so great that he even sold the sacred vessels of the Church in order to ransom captives whose souls were exposed to danger.

AUGUST 27 β ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS
When he reached the Holy City, his heart was moved by the vice and ignorance of the children of the poor. Their need mastered his humility, and he founded the Order of Clerks Regular of the Pious Schools. He himself provided all that was necessary for the education of the children, receiving nothing from them in payment, and there were soon about a thousand scholars of every rank under his care. Each lesson began with prayer. Every half-hour devotion was renewed by acts of faith, hope, and charity, and towards the end of school-time the children were instructed in the Christian doctrine. They were then escorted home by the masters, so as to escape all harm by the way.
But enemies arose against Joseph from among his own subjects. They accused him to the Holy Office, and at the age of eighty-six he was led through the streets to prison. At last the Order was reduced to a simple congregation. It was not restored to its former privileges till after the Saint's death.
Yet he died full of hope. "My work," he said, "was done solely for the love of God."
REFLECTION. β "My children," said the Cure of Ars, "I often think that most of the Christians who are lost are lost for want of instruction; they do not know their religion well."

St. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS was born in Arragon, a.d. 1556. When only five years old, he led a troop of children through the streets to find the devil and kill him. He became a priest, and was engaged in various reforms, when he heard a voice saying, "Go to Rome," and had a vision of many children who were being taught by him and by a company of angels.
