- Perpetual remorse of conscience.
- One’s condition will never change.
- A spiritual fire that penetrates the soul.
- Continual darkness and suffocating smell, while still seeing the devils, the damned, and all evil.
- Constant company of Satan.
- Horrible despair, hatred of God, vile words, curses, blasphemies.
- Torments of the senses.
- Just like Saint Jacinta of Fatima, she prayed more fervently for the conversion of sinners.
