Autor(es) Maria do Espírito Santo      
Destinatário(s) Antónia Maria Xavier      
In English

Friendship letter from Maria do Espírito Santo to Antónia Maria Xavier.

The author responds to a letter in which Antónia Maria Xavier asked her for advice, and tells her that she must follow her life as she pleases.

Maria do Espírito Santo claimed to be haunted by the demon and was submitted to an exorcism more than once. During one of these supernatural episodes she was assisted by the friar Francisco de São Joaquim Bom Sucesso, who spend the nights with her, at her request. Maria do Espírito Santo was arrested and, while in prison, gave birth to a boy. She was condemned to being publicly whipped and sent to exile for four years, among other penances.
