V?rginis, Confess?rum, quorum depos?tio respect?vis di?bus rec?litur.  Quos autem in vita unus ver? fraternit?tis sp?ritus soci?vit, et indiv?sa post ?bitum vener?tio p?puli prosec?ta est, eos Leo D?cimus t?rtius, P?ntifex M?ximus, una p?riter Sanct?rum fastis acc?nsuit. The seven Holy Founders of the Order of Servites of the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose deaths are noted on their respective days.  As one spirit of true fraternal love united them in life, and as the people joined them together in the same veneration after death, Pope Leo XIII placed them together in the catalogue of the saints.
