Thanks Gordon,
This looks like what I have. Now I need to identify the saints! Can anyone
perhaps recommend an on-line
calendar from this period?

Apologies - my previous message was wrong. Though some Calendars do give the
Roman Calendar method of referring to the days, the roman numerals ( from i
through xix are distributed in what appears to be random order throughout
the year - these are the Golden Numbers. The Golden Number, which changes
every year
indicates the occurrence of new moons and, counting forward 14 days, full
moons throughout the year. The Golden Number can be worked out by the
following equation: take the year and add one, divide by 19 and the
resulting remainder is the Golden Number. If the remainder is nil the Golden
Number is nineteen (xix).

Surely the first column contains the Roman Calendar method of referring to
the days of the month.
