SCRIPTURE

"And they went out to see what had come to pass; and they came to Jesus, and found the man, from whom the demons were gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid." — Luke 8:35 (ASV)

Sitting at the feet of Jesus.—This feature is unique to St. Luke’s narrative. The demoniac was now in the same attitude of rapt attention as we later find Mary, the sister of Lazarus (Luke 10:39).
