Question

Read the excerpt from the verse translation of Physiologus.

Such is the way
Of demons, devils’ wiles: to hide their power,
And stealthily inveigle heedless men,
Inciting them against all worthy deeds,
And luring them to seek for help and comfort
From unsuspected foes, until at last
They choose a dwelling with the faithless one.
