DECEMBER DAY: A very happy December, this being of course the tenth month (Sept, Octo, Novo, Decem), if that is you count from March and spring, as really you ought. Most significantly, today is the feast of St Edmund Campion, English Jesuit martyr and author of Campion's Brag, a stirring provocation addressed to the Privy Council which Jesuits, and those who have considered joining their number, have read since with unblushing pride. The Jesuit house at Oxford is named for him.
