bade thee come out of the damsel possessed with the spirit
of divination. Now therefore depart ✠, depart, thou seducer.
The wilderness is thy abode. The serpent is the place of thy
habitation: be humbled, and be overthrown. There is no time now
for delay. For behold the Lord the Ruler approaches closely
upon thee, and His fire shall glow before Him, and shall go
before Him; and shall burn up His enemies on every side. If
thou hast deceived man, at God thou canst not scoff: One
expels thee, from Whose Sight nothing is hidden. He casts thee
out, to Whose power all things are subject. He shuts thee out,
Who hast prepared for thee and for thine angels everlasting
hell; out of Whose mouth the sharp sword shall go out, when He
shall come to judge the quick and the dead, and the World by
fire. Amen.

_Prayer after being set free._
We pray Thee, O Almighty God, that the spirit of wickedness may
have no more power over this Thy servant N. (_or_ Thy handmaid
N.), but that he may flee away, and never come back again: at
Thy bidding, O Lord, let there come into him (_or_ her) the
goodness and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, by Whom we have
been redeemed, and let us fear no evil, for the Lord is with
us, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the Unity of the Holy
Ghost, ever one God, world without end. ℟. Amen.
