"Have you come to torment us before the appointed time?" " 

A Reading From The Holy Gospel According To Matthew (8, 28-34) 

At that time, as Jesus arrived on the other side, in the land of the Gadarenes, two possessed people came out of the graves to meet him; they were so aggressive that no one could go that way. And now they began to cry: "What do you want with us, Son of God?" Have you come to torment us before the appointed time? Now there was a large herd of pigs far away looking for food. The demons begged Jesus: "If you drive us out, send us to the herd of pigs." He answered them: "Go on. They went out and they went into the pigs; and behold, from the top of the cliff, the whole herd rushed into the sea, and the pigs died in the waves. The guards fled and went into the city to report all this, and in particular what had happened to the possessed. And now the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him, the people begged him to leave their territory.
