    When the Jew's head appeared over the water he caught his hair and said ti him. "Do you believe in the pope"?
    "No " said the Jew. Pat pushed him under the water again.
    After a short time the Jew's head appeared and Pat caught him again , "Do you believe in the pope"?and again the Jew replied
    "No " and pat pushed him under the water .For the third time the Jew's head appeared.
