So Martin ordered them to bring the man to him,
but no man durst go to the possessed one,
because he wondrously foamed at the mouth,

and laid his hand on him and quickly drove the devil

believed on our Lord, and let himself be anointed as a catechumen,
and after a little delay he was baptized,
and reverenced Martin with wondrous love,
because he was verily the author of his salvation.
