From the martyrology:
"Pope St. Pius V, confessor of the Order of Preachers, who went to sleep in the Lord on the 1st of May."
Pope St Pius V (1504-1572) is most remembered today for his standardization of the liturgy along the lines of the rite used in Rome at his time, but he also played a key role in the Council of Trent and in the restoration of orthodoxy more generally.
