The Lady Vicar Exorcist ( inspired by an article by a journalist whose mother is a vicar. This vicar is sometimes called upon by people who think their properties are possessed. She often finds she just needs to bleed a radiator.)

With book and radiator key and bell,
The Lady Vicar works her spell,
She offers tea and sympathy,
And doesn't judge but waits to see,
What use, if any she can be.
Her pastoral work is never done
It's social work, but it has one
Advantage over that provision,
It's done by someone with the vision
Of greater good, greater compassion
But still its done in practical fashion
For God likes to set as a practical test
'Ubi caritas et amor Deus ibi est'.
