Saint Cloud (560)
He was the grandson of King Clovis and of Saint Clotilde, the Queen. His uncles, so as to
stop his accession to the throne of France, murdered his two brothers, and would have
murdered him if he had not been taken into safety. He gave up all idea of becoming a king.
He became a simple priest, a hermit — and later an abbot and founder of a beautiful
monastery near Versailles. The city of Saint Cloud in Minnesota, in the United States, is
named after this great and saintly prince and priest.
Saint Regina (286)
Saint Regina was a noble little girl who lived in France and was made a Catholic by the
instruction of her nurse, and was baptized by her. In an immediate surrender to her Faith,
Regina dedicated herself to God in a vow of virginity in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
She then went to live as a little shepherdess in the hills. The Prefect of Gaul, named
Olybrius, was riding by the field where she was with her sheep. He saw her beauty, sensed
her nobility and was annoyed by her holiness. He sent for her and asked her to deny her
Faith as a Catholic. When she refused to do so, and when her clear, pure eyes challenged
his lewdness and lasciviousness, and when she refused to violate her vow of virginity and
would not sacrifice to idols, he had her beaten, burned with red-hot plates and pincers and
iron combs. He finally had her throat cut. So did this little child with the queenly name
enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
