Feast of St. Casimir (March 4th) - Swiety Kazimierz
The second son of King Casmir IV was born in 1458.  Named Casmir after his father, he distinguished himself in his youth by a deep piety and blessed charity to the poor.  As a young man he refused the crown of Hungary.  On his deathbed St. Casmir asked that a copy of his well-known hymn to Our Lady, which begins:  "Dnia kazdego, Boga mego, Matke wyslawiaj"- "Daily, daily, sing to Mary," should be buried with him.
