'Gregory the Great tells us how the nun of a convent, walking in the garden, ate a lettuce-leaf without making the cautionary sign of the cross, and was immediately possessed by a demon. St. Equitius tortured the spirit with his exorcisms till the unhappy imp exclaimed: 'What have I done? I was sitting on the leaf and she ate me.' But Equitius would listen to no excuse and forced him to depart.'
