Honoratus (French: Saint Honorat or Saint Honoré; c. 350 – January 6, 429) was an early Archbishop of Arles, who was also the Abbot of Lérins Abbey. He is honored as a saint in the Catholic Church.
There is some disagreement concerning his place of birth, and the date of his death is still disputed, being according to certain authors, January 14 or January 15. It is believed that he was born in the north of Gaul and that he belonged to a consular Roman family. Honoratus received an outstanding education. Converted to Christianity with his brother Venantius, he embarked with him from Marseilles about 368, under the guidance of a holy person named Caprasius, to visit the holy places of Palestine and the lauræ of Syria and Egypt. But the death of Venantius, occurring suddenly at Methone, Achaia, prevented the pious travellers from going further. They returned to Gaul through Italy, and, after having stopped at Rome, Honoratus went on into Provence and, encouraged by Leontius, bishop of Fréjus, took up his abode in the wild Lérins Island today called the Île Saint-Honorat, with the intention of living there in solitude.
Honoratus:
(R.J. Johnson/The Honeyrods)
Yes as a matter of fact
I'm writing it down
I'm making a list, you owe me's
See a mountain of fries
can make up my mind
so pass me the ketchup bottle
You dressed like a clown
I feel like a mess
I'm making excuses for all the times
I was stuck on the street at Demonbreun
and I'm waiting for you
Wishing you never called
you said you'd never let me down
and then you went away
Yeah so maybe you're right
so what if I'm late
I'll buy you some flowers while I want
A mountain of lies
can make up your mind
so pick up the extra pieces
You think I'm a clown
make me confess
I'll give you a reason for all the times
that I made up a mess like I did today
while I was waiting for you
I robbed a store for you
And you won't feel in your arms
and you won't see in your heart
Loose cannons hold in your arms
