Demons » Parable of the man repossessed by unclean spirits
When the unclean spirit is gone out of the man, it walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then it says, I will return into my house from which I came out; and when it is come, it finds it empty, swept, and garnished.

Even so shall it also be unto this wicked generation.
