The manner. 〈non-Latin alphabet〉.
Is gone: which is rather a form of speaking with us, then a form of his going out. Yet howsoever a Spirit or man leaves the place of his former residence, whether willingly or on compulsion, when he is out, it is said of him, he is gone. Here then is offered to our consideration, the manner of the Devils departure.

Satan goes not out of an inhabited hart willingly. Where they had local and substantial possession, you read in the Gospel that Christ was said to cast them out. And among other places, most pregnantly in the 11. of Luke ver. 14. to the justification 1and clearing of this phrase, Jesus was casting out a Devil, and it was dumb. And when the Devil was gone out, the dumb spoke. He was gone out, he was cast out: the one expounds the other. So that this gone out, is rather a passive then an active speech: he never went out with his good will: he frets to be dislodged of his chamber. That Legion of devils in one poor Gadarene.
