¶ The .v. Chapter.
1And they cam over to the other side of the see in to the country of the Gaderenites. And when he was come out of the ship / there met him out of the graves a man possessed of an unclean spirit / which had his abiding among the graves. And no man could bind him: no not with chains / because that when he was often bound with fetters & chains / he plucked the chains asunder / & brake the fetters in peaces. Nether could any man tame him. And always both night & day / he cried in the mountains & in the graves / & bet him self with stones. When he had spied Jesus afar of / he ran & worshipped him / & cried with a loud voice & said: what have I to do with the Jesus the son of the most hiest God? I require thee in the name of God that thou torment me not. For he had said unto him: come out of the man thou foul spirit. And he axed him: what is thy name? And he answered saying: my name is Legion / for we are many.2 And he prayed him instantly / that he would not send them away out of the country.
