"Carry him in procession!" shouted the crowd. "Amen, brethren; here I am," rejoined Euschemon, stepping briskly into the midst of the troop. "And why in the name of Zernebock should we carry you?" demanded some, while others ran off to lug forth the image, the object of their devotion. "Why, verily," Euschemon began, and stopped short. How indeed was he to prove to them that he was Euschemon?

Euschemon energetically protested that he had been on earth but a simple laic, which was indeed the fact, and was also the reason why Eulogius and Eucherius despised him, but which, though he did not think it needful to tell the demon, he found a singular relief under present circumstances.

His deportment in it was in all respects edifying; or if he evinced some little remissness in the service of Saints Eulogius and Eucherius, this was more than compensated by his devotion to the hitherto somewhat slighted Saint Euschemon.

It is commonly believed that the devil good-naturedly dropped Euschemon back again into Paradise, or wheresoever he might have come from. It is even added that he fell between Eulogius and Eucherius, who had been arguing all the time respecting the merits of their bells, and resumed his share in the discussion as if nothing had happened.
