Saint Teresa in Ecstasy
From Life of Saint Teresa, describing transverberation
"This he plunged into my heart several times so that it penetrated to my entrails. When he pulled it out, I felt that e took them with it, and left me utterly consumed by the great love of God....The pain was so severe that it made utter several moans."
