Saint Raphael and dogs

   
   "Saint Raphael and dogs"
   
   The Book of Tobias, as it is dubbed in the Vulgate, smoothly showcases the powerful potency of Saint Raphael, an Arch-Angel--the physician of God, yet mighty when driving away the dirt of demons.
   It displays that suffering may not be punishment, yet a test of sorts.  The endgame:  God gifts the just; however, the lazy-hearts, blinded by ego are sincerely punished; furthermore, it boldly states:  "It is right to keep the secret of a king, yet right to reveal and publish the works of God as they deserve."
   Tobias not only travels with Saint Raphael, but a dog as well--and here wends the weird of the cool coyote.  Not merely a sinister trickster, for the American Jackal has an infinite meaning.  A goofball maybe, able to unmask the wicked; plus, the Wise/Fool, catching neon-green tennis balls thrown by Angels and Saints.  If you can feel me, and so on. 
   As Johnny Carson would proclaim:  "Weird and wild stuff."
