My guess on the week beginning 6 August is:
6. Sunday 10th after Pentecost. The Transfiguration of our Lord, double of the II class (or major double?). White. 1st Vespers of the feast, com. of the preceding and (also at Lauds and Mass:) of the Sunday and Sts. Xystus and associates, martyrs. Preface of Christmas (!). 2nd Vespers Com. of the following and the Sunday. The Feast of Devotion is announced.
7. Monday. St. Cajetan Conf., double. White. At Vespers Com. of the following.
8. Tuesday. Sts. Cyriacus, Largus and Smaragdus, semidouble. Red. Second prayers A cunctis, third prayers at the choice of the priest. At Vespers Com. of St. Eusebius Conf. (Maybe some transferred double in the dioceses you are following?)
9. Wednesday. Vigil of St. Lawrence. Violet. Fast (?). Com. of the saint. 2nd prayers of the BVM, 3nd of the saint. (Or vice versa? I think the commemoration makes the prayer for the Church or the Pope fall away, and it seems fitting to have a prayer for a saint after that of the Blessed Virgin, even though the latter is merely a "second prayer" and the former a commemoration..:). Vespers of the following (wherein nothing of St. Eusebius.) Red. (Maybe some transferred double in the dioceses you are following?)
10. Thursday. St. Lawrence, double of the II class with an Octave. Red. Feast of Devotion. At Vespers com. of Sts. Tiburtius and Susanna martyrs.
11. Friday. Of the Octave, semidouble. Red. Com. of the Saints. 2nd prayers of the BVM, 3rd of the saints (or vice versa, same logic?). Vespers of the following, com. of the Octave and the saints. (Maybe some transferred double?)
12. Saturday. St. Clare Virgin, double. White. Com. of the Octave. At Vespers Com. of the Sunday, St. Hippolytus and Cassian martyrs and the Octave (in some other order?).
Why, by the way, is St. Clare not on her natalis on the 11th, as the Novus Ordo does have it? Surely not due to the mere simple of Sts. Tiburtius and Susanna (relegated, at that time, to a commemoration within an Octave anyway)? I guess not; but I saw only a short time ago that at her own hometown of Assisi, St. Rufinus bishop martyr, patron probably of the diocese, certainly of the cathedral, has his local feast probably on August 11th (though is mentioned in the martyrology a couple of days earlier...). It would make sense to celebrate St. Clare not on her real day when she can't be so in Assisi.
I really would miss St. Jeanmarie, though; and even as it is I'd wish to, if I could as I would and not other things (granted) were also important, attend both a Mass for the Vigil and St. Edith, Theresia Benedicta I should say. Good thing you can think of both in one Mass, or even outside if I don't manage any.
Correction: As Sts. Tiburtius and Susanna have a simple, they were probably not commemorated in the First Vespers of St. Clare.
Thanks John. St Alphonsus made it!
Nepomuk: my calendar for the week of 6 July didn't post as scheduled (not surprising as I set it for 4 May!) but it's there now. You were close, but not quite there. As for St Clare, Farmer (Oxford Dictionary of Saints) just says "11th August, formerly 12th"
