Our Lady of La Salette to Maximian: “If the people persist in disregarding the laws which they are bound to observe [not working on Sunday; not blaspheming], they may sow their corn if they will, it will come to nothing, the worms and insects shall devour it in the blade, and the blight shall consume the little that falls into ear. The grapes shall rot and fall off; the nut trees shall be blasted. Then shall follow a famine, when convulsions shall seize upon the little children, and they shall die in the arms 0f their mothers and nurses.”
