Rabanus Maurus, on Matt 12:43

“And when an unclean spirit is gone out of a man he walketh through dry places seeking rest, and findeth none.”

“For when any one is converted to the faith, the Devil is cast out of him in Baptism, who driven thence wanders up and down through the dry places, that is, the hearts of the faithful.”
