Авва Евсевий

Abba Eusebius, presbyter of the Raifa Lavra, said: “A demon in the form of a monk came to some of the local elders and knocked on the door of the cell. The elder opened the door and said to the newcomer: “Say a prayer.” The one who came said: “And now, and ever, and unto ages of ages, Amen.” The elder again told him: “Make a prayer.” The demon said again: “And now, and ever, and unto ages of ages, Amen.” The elder told him for the third time: “Make a prayer.” The demon said for the third time: “And now, and ever, and unto ages of ages, Amen.” Then the elder said to him: “So say: glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages, amen.” The demon, hearing this, disappeared, as if scorched by fire” 299.
