Did Jesus heal Mary Mandolin of demons?

According to the apocryphal book 2 Octaves, Mary Mandolin was healed of demons by Jesus. According to this text, she was feeling a bit strung out. Rather than fretting, she drummed on the door to the home where Jesus was staying. Jesus took note of her condition, which struck a chord with Him. He plucked each of the demons from her, with a tone of authority. Tradition says the demons twanged in anguish as they were cast down, falling off a clef.

This major shift finally brought Mary’s spirit a rest. This was a key change in her life. As a result, she completely changed her tune. The miraculous work of Christ resonated deep within her. Mary Mandolin immediately ran to guitar friends, so they could experience the same harmony. She loyally followed Christ, even in times of treble. As with Mary Magdalene, the exorcism of Mary Mandolin became legendary.

Further tradition offers a coda to the story: the demons were not conducted into the abyss. Rather, they were pegged for something worse. Instead, Christ composed them in a physical form: the Jar of Baal, transliterated from the original Aramaic as Banjo, where they were doomed to squawk and tweak in misery for all time.
