La Vaquilla del Ángel1 es la fiesta de mayor arraigo en la ciudad de Teruel, cuyo origen se pierde en la noche de los tiempos. Dedicadas al Santo Ángel, patrono de la ciudad, rememoran la legendaria fundación de Teruel por parte de unos caballeros aragoneses tras tomar la fortaleza musulmana a la que les condujo un toro bravo. El festejo más tradicional es el toro ensogado, que corre por las calles entre los quiebros de los mozos el lunes. Aunque son la "Puesta del Pañuelico" (el acto más conocido)2 3 , la "Quita del Pañuelico" y las diferentes actuaciones musicales de las peñas, los actos más famosos y que más público congregan.
Patroness of those with Heart Illnesses
Feast Date: August 17
Born in 1268 of a well to do family in Montefalco, Italy, Clare was a lively, sincere and intelligent daughter of Damiano and Iacopa Vengente. In Italian, her name was "Chiara" which means, "clear, bright, pure."
Already a veteran ascetic at the tender age of 20, Clare was suddenly thrust into the first of her three great trials. She began to experience spiritual upheavals in ther heart. Temptations assaulted her, conflicts raged inside her previously well-ordered emotional life. She was now subjected to doubt: she could not resolve whether or not God had abandoned her. This upheaval she endured 11 years.
The Bishop of nearby Spoleto sent his representative to Montefalco in order to supervise the election of the monaster'y new abbess. The unanimous choice was Clare. So began Clare's second great trial. Preferring to serve God and His people in a more humble way, she declined to accept the role and responsibility of Abbess. Finally, however, she humbly bowed to ther will and became their Abbess. For 16 years, Clare served as mother, teacher, and spiritual director of the nuns. She governed wisely.
Clare also loved the poor, the ill as much as those who were persecuted. To these desperate folk and anyone in misery who knocked at the monastery portal, she gave whatever she needed. Her heart was so forgiving, that she even helped those who has spoken evil of her and who has wished evil upon her.
What Clare possessed was spiritual strength. This power goes by different names in each century, but always remains the ability to disregard the body and its primitive needs in order to focus intensely upon the spirit. Clare was a mystic, but she was realist enough to obtain funds to build a church for her monastery, which would serve not only her nuns but also the citizens of Montefalco and all the pilgrims who cam to this mountain village seeking her insights. Like the abbey, the church was also dedicated to the Holy Cross.
Frescoes on the chapel wall portray some of Clare's conversations with Christ concerning His Cross. In 1294, when she was only 26, she asked Him, "Where are You going Lord?" He answered, "I have been searching the whole world over for a strong place to plant my Cross, but i have found none." Later He tells her, "Clare, i have found a place for my Cross. I shall place it in your heart." From that day on, Clare's body ached with acute pain, marked there by Christ Himself. Thus began the last of her three trials - that of physical illness.
By July of 1308, Clare's illness had become so severe that she was bedridden. On the 15th of August, she was asked to receive the holy oils of the sick. On the 16th, she asked that of her brother to be sent for. On the 17th, after confessing her sins to the monastery chaplain, she declared "There is little else for me to say, for today i shall be with Christ, because i go with Him."
Clare's body was embalmed and to this day lies in state, incorrupt, in the church of the Augustinian nuns of Montefalco, Italy. Her Heart bears the marks of the Passion, the Cross and the instruments of Christ's Passion, just as she had said. Pope Leo XIII declared Clare a Saint on December 8, 1881 at the Basilica of St. Peter in Rome.

It appears to have got through its lastest MoT just a few days before my photo, with its mileage now approaching 66k. Inevitably there was some corrosion, but it looks like the owner is keen to keep it going.

Gandang Sinauna at Sariwa
Bukas Palad Music Ministry
Kay tagal bago Kita minahal
Gandang sinauna at sariwa
Tapat Kang nanahan sa 'king kalooban
Ngunit hinahanap pa rin kahit saan
Kay tagal bago Kita minahal
Gandang sinauna at sariwa
Ako'y nagpabihag sa likha Mong tanan
Di ko akalaing Ikaw pala'y nilisan
Ako'y tinawagan mula sa katahimikan
Pinukaw Mo ang aking pandinig
Biglang luminaw ang awit ng daigdig
Kay tagal bago Kita minahal
Gandang sinauna at sariwa
Tapat Kang nanahan sa 'king kalooban
Ngunit hinahanap pa rin kahit saan
Ako'y inilawan mula sa 'king kadiliman
Minulat Mo aking mga mata
Biglang luminaw tanglaw ko sa tuwina
Kay tagal bago Kita minahal
Gandang sinauna at sariwa
Ako'y nagpabihag sa likha Mong tanan
Di ko akalaing Ikaw pala'y nilisan
Kay tagal bago Kita minahal
Gandang sinauna at sariwa
Akong nilikha Mo, uuwi rin sa 'Yo
Ako'y papayapa lamang sa pilin Mo
