Forgive my cluelessness Loti, but I don't know what those abbreviations stand for.

Which is it?

I think the letters, G,W,R stand for the vestment colors of the priest who offers the Mass; gold, white, red.

I think the I and II stand for Class of Feast Day, i.e., First Class, Second Class.

The SSPX calendar has them both as second class feasts.
