This woman was pagan, Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she begged him to expel the demon from her daughter. He said, "Wait the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs." But she replied, "Yes, Lord; even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs. "He then said, "So saying go thy way; the demon has left your daughter. "He went home and found the child lying in bed and the demon was gone.
