Ordinary fire cannot touch the soul. The memory will be tormented to remember what means of grace have been abused. The conscience will be tormented with self-accusations. The sinner will accuse himself for presumptuous sins, for misspending his precious hours, and for resisting the Holy Ghost. The wrath of God is without intermission.
Outward pain has some abatement.
The sinner will ever be in the furnace. After innumerable millions of years the wrath of God is as far from ending as it was at the beginning. On account of the heinous nature of sin. While the wicked lie scorching in the flames of wrath, they have none to commiserate them. God will not.
