&lt;p&gt;La partenza de' miei confratelli per l'America e per la Cina ha destato nel mio cuore una santa invidia, e mi ha sempreppiù acceso nell'animo quel desiderio che da sì lungo tempo nutro nel cuore. Ora, giacchè probabilmente nel prossimo Novembre dovrò cominciare la Teologia attesa la mia età di 29. anni, ardisco di pregare un'altra volta V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; perché mi ottenga da N&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la grazia singolarissima di cominciare il corso fuori d'Europa, affinchè per tal modo io possa apprendere in pari tempo le costumanze e la lingua di quella regione cui la Providenza Divina vorrà destinarmi. La prego, caro Padre, di dire assolutamente a N&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che io ho chiesto, chieggo, e chiederò sempre l'Estere Missioni finchè mi resti alito di vita, o mi si conceda almeno &lt;em&gt;propter importunitatem&lt;/em&gt; la grazia. Spero che la sua ben nota amorevolezza, ed efficacia mi farà ottenere favorevole rescritto, ed io però la ringrazio innanzi tempo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi raccomando intanto a S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; e con tutto il rispetto ho l'onore di segnarmi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sento da qualche tempo una brama di consacrarmi al Divino servizio nelle Missioni straniere, e così poter testimoniare al nostro amorosissimo Redentore e Capitano Gesù, qualche mostra di affetto per le infinite ch’Egli ce ne ha date. Son ben io consapevole della mia pochissima virtù, ma conosco altresì, che Iddio suol prescerre talora strumenti men atti al conseguimento degli altissimi fini della sua gloria, perchè meglio risplenda il poter del suo braccio; e però se da un canto mi […] la mia fralezza, dall’altro mi affida la Divina Misericordia.

&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in C&lt;em&gt;ri&lt;/em&gt;sto Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Il tempo de' S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; Esercizi essendo l'opportunissimo infra tutti per deliberare, ed inoltre avendomi imposto il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Leziroli, approvata già la mia vocazione, di scrivere a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à, io però le rinnovo con questa mia la preghiera tante volte a Lei presentata delle Missioni Straniere - Io sento, Padre mio, sempre maggior in me stesso gl'impulsi per dedicarmi interamente al divino servigio in questo Apostolico ministero - I motivi che mi vi spingono sono i seguenti.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;1.° L'esser sicuro di tutto e sempre adoperarmi in Ufficî direttamente e prossimamente spirituali, ai quali mi sento molto inclinato: il che è ben difficile che ottengasi restando -&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;2.° L'essere distaccato col fatto da ogni bene, e da ogni speranza terrena&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;3.° L'essere mesto in una posizione d'amabile violenza per esercitar la virtù -&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;4.° Da ultimo la speranza di poter dare la vita per amor di Gesù -&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io spero che quel Divino Spirito, di cui è dono questo buon desiderio, voglia muovere questa volta il Cuore di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à a concedermi la grazia desiderata, la quale non dovrebb'essere lontana essendo io già Teologo di terzo anno, e vicino a compiere il trentesimo dell'età mia - Che se V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à non si degna neppur questa volta di accordarmi un favorevol rescritto alla mia preghiera, non per questo cesserò in avvenire dal più dimandare, sì perché cotale importunità non può essere spiancente al suo Cuore, come ancora perché non mi resti il rimorso di non avere ascoltato la voce del Signore che fortemente mi chiamava-&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Le bacio intanto con filiale rispetto la mano, e pronto a' suoi cenni ho l'onore di segnarmi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Carlo Rossi Maestro nel Collegio di Salerno, sebbene ignoto a Vostra Paternità purnondimeno animato dalla sua amorevolezza ardisce porgerle una preghiera, sicuro che avrà felice riuscimento.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sono parecchi anni che io sento di continuo nel cuore una ispirazione di tutto consecrarmi al Divino Servizio nelle Missioni straniere; ne scrissi son già tre anni a nostro Padre, ma niuna risposta né direttamente né indirettamente ho mai ricevuto; diressi poscia una lettera al passato Segretario Padre Janssen, ed ebbe lo stesso effetto; ne ho parlato altresì col Padre Provinciale, ma finora non ho veduto splendere pur un raggio di speranza, ora finalmente, dacché questa ispirazione leva più alto la voce nel mio cuore, ho fermato di volgermi a lei, e spero non indarno. Io ho già 28 anni, son di forze robusto, conosco un po’ di Francese, e d’Inglese, sarei pronto a partire anche adesso, se ciò fosse voler dei Superiori, compiendo gli studi, e rendendomi pratico della lingua che fosse per me necessaria; la prego però di parlare al Padre Generale, perché abbia almeno un fil di speranza a che potermi appoggiare. Egli è vero che avvi in me difetto di quelle virtù vere, e solide di che ha mestieri chi si accinge a quest’ardua impresa: ma se Dio è quegli che mi chiama potrò tutto avvalorato dalla onnipotenza del suo braccio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Scusi Vostra reverenza il mio ardimento nel darle questo fastidio: Ella ne deve incolpare la sua caritatevole gentilezza, che mi ha sospinto a farlo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Mi raccomando intanto a’ Suoi Santissimi Sacrifici e con tutto il rispetto mi dichiaro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di Vostra Reverenza &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Infimo Suddito ed obbedientissimo in Cristo &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

E di nuovo offro alla Paternità vostra il debole mio servizio in qualità di operaro per le sante missioni quando la Paternità vostra non fosse al contrario informato con vera sincerità che in me manca quelle virtù che deve esser vestito un vero desiderio di tal impresa e spero che la Paternità vostra non gli sarà di grave incomodo per l'informazione mentre io per la Divina grazia sono circa ventanni ch'io abito in questa venerabil casa e i miei dir&lt;em&gt;et&lt;/em&gt;tori delle cose di spirito sono che presentame&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;te vivano il Padre Rossini e il Padre Tornaseri.

&lt;p&gt;Ho tardato un poco a mandarle le lettere consultorie perchè dopo la metà febraio abbiam avuto da far molto: giacchè si è fatto un ottavario per la fondazione dell'aggregazione all'immacolato Cuor di Maria, e si è dovuto quindi preparar qualche predica e confessione molto senza lasciar per questo di fare la scuola. La funzione è riuscita bene: non pare però che vi siano state finora molte straordinarie conversioni: ma forse succederanno. - Spero che il R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Grassi le avrà significato il mio desiderio per le missioni straniere, che io a lui esposi con simplicità. Non perchè abbia detto d'esser di coscienza [...], creda V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che sia di dottrina rigida per gli altri: anzi abborrisco direi quasi come dal dar Scandolo, dall'imporre legge che non è: ne perchè abbia detto che ho timore di non reggere ai tormenti se vi fossi messo creda che V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; vorrà giudicarmi o troppo timido o troppo sensitivo. Il Signore le ispiri il meglio per l'amor suo, per il ben mio o per quello de' prossimi. - A V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; desidero ogni bene: a S&lt;em&gt;uoi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; molto mi raccomando e nel tempo stesso mi protesto della Paternità Vostra&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Torino 10 Dicembre 1838&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono sei anni e più, che io vivo per Divina grazia nella Compagnia, ne’ però mai si è spento in me il desiderio delle sante missioni, che io concepii prima ancora di entrarvi nel leggere le nostre storie. Anzi ogni qual volta ho ripensato fra me alle fatiche da sostenersi in quel sacro ministero, ho sempre sentito una interna consolazione, ed una voce, che mi diceva: questo il Signore ricerca da te; tu il farai, se egli ti ajuta. Ho conferito spesso questa cosa coi miei P&lt;em&gt;adri&lt;/em&gt; Spirituali, e coi Superiori, i quali sempre mi confortarono a conservare questo buon desiderio, e ad attendere intanto di buon animo a quello, in che la santa Ubbidienza mi occupava. Se io ho mancato in alcuna cosa, certo che in questa, di non approfittarmi abbastanza del tempo per acquistarmi buoni abiti in ogni virtù; nel che io domando di tutto cuore perdono a Dio. Ma credo ormai tempo di palesare a &lt;span&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; questo mio sentimento e di aprirle il mio cuore. Io so, che il Signore ha posto nelle sue mani le chiavi della sua vigna, perchè le apra, a cui Egli vuole, e l’inspira. Dunque se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;guidata, com’è certo da supremo lume, crederà di soddisfare alla mia domanda, avrollo io per pegno assai sicuro della chiamata di Dio; che se giudicasse ciò non essere per me spediente, offrirò in pace a Dio il sacrifizio del mio desiderio, e mi acquieterò al Suo supremo volere. Del resto le mie forze pajonmi sufficienti a tale impresa, tanto più che essendo io d’ignobil condizione, non sono avvezzo ad agi ed a delicatezze: e sarei assai contento, lasciati anche gli studii, di poter servire a Padri ne’ loro ministeri, ed insegnare a rozzi i misteri principali di N&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Fede.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Se io mi potessi fare cosi alcuni meriti per il Paradiso, che mi giova tutto il resto?&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Questo ho giudicato di scrivere a &lt;span&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; per pace e consolazione dell’anima mia, checchè voglia Iddio da me per mezzo di lei, a cui mi protesto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo figlio e servo in &lt;em&gt;Cris&lt;/em&gt;to&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Penso che non dispiacerà alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; che io le manifesti di durar sempre nel desiderio, che la s&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; obbedienza mi ordini di servire Dio nell'America. Tutti i giorni prego il Signore specialmente nella s&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Messa che, se questo desiderio viene da Lui, me lo adempia. Ora vedo nel catalogo di questa Provincia che la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; pensa di mandare colà qualcuno de' nostri. Inoltre dall'inquietezza nella quale vivono i miei parenti sul conto mio per la turbolenza d'Italia, argomento che in questo tempo patirebbero più facilmente la mia dipartenza. Quindi è che ho giudicato non inopportuno ricordare ora alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; i miei desiderî. So che io valgo assai poco e per l'Italia e per l'America, ma so ancora che non di rado ama Dio servirsi di persone pari alla mia. L'unica cosa che io cerco è fare la divina volontà e questa dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; mi verrà manifestata.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Prego dunque la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; della sua benedizione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Oso tornare innanzi a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; con una nuova lettera fidato nella bontà sua che mi sopporterà pazientemente, e persuaso ch'ella non giudicherà che io voglia a viva forza d'istanza strappare una concessione alla dimanda che nuovamente la propongo. Lo dissi gia ed ora lo ripeto, io non voglio se non quello che vuole Dio. Quello che Dio vorrà, lo saprò dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Nel tempo del noviziato, e in quello che studiava filosofia, e ancora quando insegnava, pensai talvolta seriamente se doveva chiedere a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; le missioni agl'infedeli, ma siccome oltre il desiderio di far qualche cosa per Iddio, non avea verun segno che mi mostrasse con qualche chiarezza il divin volere non mi risolvetti a farne parola. Invidiava coloro che erano chiamati cosi da Dio, ma non passai più innanzi. Anche allora quando giunse il p&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rydar e vidi che molti si offrivano per andare ad aiutare le fatiche de' nostri nell'America provai questa invidia, e solo pregai il Signore che se voleva da me che anch'io gli offrissi in sacrifizio e patria e parenti e speranza di rivederli mi manifestasse la sua volontà, ed avrei seguita la sua voce. Cominciai la novena a s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco Saverio detta della grazia; gli chiedeva tre cose ma inoltre, e soprattutto quella qualunque si fosse ch'egli conosceva essere più vantaggiosa per la salute mia e de' prossimi. Non pensava però all'America. Dopo qualche giorno sentii desiderio di chiedere l'America. L'esaminai con diligenza, usai le regole di S&lt;em&gt;ant'&lt;/em&gt;Ignazio per l'elezione, mi consigliai, e giudicai che fosse da Dio. Dunque risolvetti presenterò la dimanda. Non lo nego provai qualche combattimento si per la cosa che dimandava, si ancora per lo stesso dimandare. Ciò non ostante Dio è che mi fa un favore e debbo ubbidando accettarlo. Stimai meglio far sapere a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; il mio desiderio per mezzo del p&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; segretario di quello che io stesso o a voce o per iscritto glie lo manifestassi. Cosi feci e ne ebbi ottime speranze. Ne ringraziai il Signore. Ma poco stette che le mie speranze si cangiarono in afflizione. Mi rivolsi a Dio, lo pregai che se fosse per bene dell'anima mia e de' prossimi togliesse Egli gli ostacoli, ch'io volentieri gli offeriva il mio sacrifizio. Iddio dal primo giorno che io feci sapere alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; il mio desiderio, ha allargato la mano nel concedermi il suo favore e in particolare mi ha regalato di una grazia che da più di dodici anni io gli chiedeva non dirò istantamente ma debbo dire impazientemente. Questa liberalità di Dio l'ho ricevuta come un segno col quale mi volesse mostrare ch'Egli era veramente che mi moveva a chiedere l'America. Cosi animato rinnovai ed ora per un'altra volta rinnovo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la mia dimanda. Le ho esposto come avviene che io mi muova a chiedere l'America, quantunque la cosa che chiedo costi qualche pena alla mia natura. Ora riguardo al motivo perché forse V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mi nega questa grazia dirò brevemente, e con qualche libertà poichè parlo a chi io considero più come padre che come superiore. Difetti, lo so, ne ho molti, cercherò emendarli, ma per quanto lo desideri non ne sarò mai privo sia in Italia sia in America. La &lt;em&gt;Paternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; però vede difetti in me, che se non li vedesse mi concederebbe ciò ch'io dimando? Ma li dica ad uno ad uno in particolare, ed io diligentemente me li noterò, a mattina e sera tutti i giorni farò rigoroso esame sull'emendazione di essi, e se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; lo consentisse, dall'America ancora le ne renderei fedelissimo conto. Non so che aggiugnere a questa e alle cose che altra volta le ho dette. Se questa dimanda ritornerà con un nuovo rifiuto mi asterrò dal rinnovarla si perchè temerei di ottenere a viva forza d'istanza ciò che desidero mi venga per sola volontà del superiore, si ancora perchè se Dio è che mi mette in cuore questo desiderio, dappoichè io credo d'aver fatto tutto quello che doveva dal canto mio, lascio a lui faccia io resto. V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mi creda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Generale&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io reputai aver fatto quanto doveva per quiete di mia coscienza quando manifestai a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; che io giudicava volesse Dio esser servito da me nell'America. Credetti però che mi restasse una sola cosa, farle nota cioè a tempo opportuno la mia fermezza in questi sentimenti. Ora un certo timore d'aver mancato a questo obbligo, mi spinge per tranquillità di mia coscienza a scriverle a tal fine queste poche parole.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Fo dunque sapere alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;, che io sono venuto più d'una volta per dirle che, siccome allora quando a Lei lo manifestai, cosi presentemente, stimo che sia vera voce di Dio quella che mi invita a dimandare la missione all'America. Che temo assai non sia stato l'amor proprio sregolato quello che mi ha fatto credere fin qui ogni tempo inopportuno a fare colla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; questa mia parte. Che qualora sembrasse a Lei di comandarmelo, io anche dentro questo giorno sono pronto a partire, e qualora Ella lo volesse senza neppur salutare i miei parenti. Che finalmente il mio unico desiderio è fare la volontà di Dio, e in questa ho trovato fin qui la tranquillità del mio spirito, e spero che la troverò sempre finché mi resterà filo di vita.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Prendo questa occasione per dirle che ho adempiuto a tutto che la P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; mi mostrò dover fare per l'appagamento de' miei Superiori, e spero che questi non avranno da me ombra di cagione per guardarsi dà fatti miei per l'avvenire.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Dopo ciò sono interamente tranquillo, qualunque cosa la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; sia per determinare intorno alla mia persona.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; Re&lt;em&gt;verendo&lt;/em&gt; in C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Generale&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ho adempiuto con prontezza agli ordini di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, ieri sera parlai col p&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore. Ma per ciò che spetta alla mia dimanda dell’America dovrò deporre ogni pensiero? Ho fatto calda orazione su questa cosa, e credo che sia volontà di Dio che io torni nuovamente a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; con la dimanda. Ella me ne avea data, pochi giorni fa, ottima speranza per mezzo del p&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Segretario, e ieri me le tolse tutte, e me ne addusse le ragioni. Io dissi qualche cosa in mio favore, potrei dirne molte altre, ma mi contenterò di poco. Mi perdoni se abuso della sua pazienza. Procurerò di scrivere brevemente, anche per ciò che la mia scrittura non la potrà leggere senza fatica.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io per misericordia di Dio non ho mai dubitato nella mia vocazione religiosa. Ho sofferto parte per la mia natura inchinata a melanconia, parte per una serie di accidenti che hanno formato la mia croce, specialmente nei sette anni della mia dimora in Roma. La natura talvolta si è fatta sentire ma mercè della divina grazia non ho neppur pregato il Signore che mi togliesse la croce, ma che anzi me la aggravasse, e solo non mi abbandonasse col suo aiuto. Anche in quest’ultima novena di S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Saverio ho chiesto [l’amore] al patire. Credo di poter dire che almeno rare assai sono state quelle volte che negli anni di religione ho fatte azioni le quali conosceva apertamente essere d’offesa di Dio anche leggera. Confesso che il male in cui sono caduto è stato qualche lagnanza del superiore uscitami di bocca, ma so che doveva e poteva usare intorno a ciò maggior diligenza. Conobbi il mio male e posso dire che da qualche tempo me ne sono per bontà di Dio emendato. Sono di natura malinconico, ma il male della malinconia lo porto tutto io, e non esce di me se non nell’aspetto, chè non sempre mi riesce di nasconderlo affatto nell’animo. Del resto non sono per ciò noioso a compagnia e molto meno agli esterni. In pruova, vedo che con me hanno sempre trattato volentieri. Quantunque tutto ciò formi parte della mia consolazione, pure mi resta, non devo tacerlo, assai che piangere nel vedere quanto sia poco, e quanto imperfetto, specialmente messo a confronto con le molte e straordinarie grazie di che Dio mi ha ricolmato. Questo è uno de’ pensieri che più mi affligge; ma so di trattare con un buon Dio il quale è liberale in misericordia; e questo mi conforta a sperare ogni cosa.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io ho manifestata a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; l’anima mia come la vedo innanzi a Dio. Ora passo alla dimanda della America. Che dirò? Padre mio, l’ho dimandata, e di nuovo la dimando perché mi pare di non poter dubitare che questa sia la volontà di Dio. Ho gran desiderio di fare questo sacrifizio. Abbandonare per sempre la patria i parenti senza speranza di rivederli è un sagrifizio che a me costa forse più che a molti altri. Prego V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che mi conceda la grazia di poterlo offrire al Signore. Non ho fatto nulla per Iddio fin qui; ora mi sembra ch’Egli mi dimandi questa cosa, ed io non voglio negargliela. È un gran favore ch’Egli mi offre, e come posso ricusarlo? Come posso fare a meno d’impegnarmi quanto so per ottenerlo? Penso che in America avrò maggiore sanità da impiegarla in servizio di Dio. Ho sperimentato che il clima più freddo di questo mi avvalora le forze. Ma se la mia virtù, e la mia abilità non basteranno ad operare in america, se non potrò combattere guarderò il bagaglio a qualcuno di quelli che quivi per scarsità di soggetti ora sta al bagaglio potrà andare innanzi nella mischia e sarà sempre uno di più che faticherà pel regno di Dio dove si fatica con tanto frutto, ed io avrò la mia consolazione in questo. Se il Signore mi concederà questa grazia come me la fa desiderare, stimerò d’essere ripagato abbondantemente di quel poco che fin qui ho sofferto per amor suo.&amp;nbsp;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non mi neghi questa che sarà delle maggiori consolazioni che io possa avere in vita e in morte.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ho tanti debiti con Dio che mi spaventano, se in morte potrò ringraziarlo che mi abbia concesso di fargli un tal sagrifizio che consolazione non sarà questa per me in qual momento?&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io non voglio altro se non che si adempia in me la divina volontà, ma se Dio vuole che io abbia questa grazia da lei a forza di preghiere io non so come meglio pregarla. Ripeterò che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non mi voglia negare la consolazione di offrire a Dio questo sagrifizio che quanto più mi costa tanto più volentieri io Glielo offro. Confido in Dio il quale mi da il desiderio ch’Egli muovera la V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; a concedermene l’adempimento. Non vado più innanzi per non abusarmi di più della bontà della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; di cui mi protesto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Cristo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto reverendo in &lt;em&gt;Chris&lt;/em&gt;to P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Generale&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;È gran tempo dacchè io mi sento in cuore il desiderio, delle Missioni straniere si per immitare la generosità de’ nostri Maggiori si per patire anche io per amor di Gesù Cristo qualche stento di cui quelle debbano essere fertili, finalmente per procurare qualche poco di bene in quelle anime abbandonate, secondo la possibilità dello stato mio. Finnora non mi sono ardito di supplicarne la paternità Vostra Molto Reverendissima parte per pensarvi meglio ed esaminare se persistesse l’ispirazione, parte perché credeva la grazia troppo singolare ad ottenersi, ed mi riconsoco indegnissimo di riceverla. Poiché come ben saprà la Paternità Vostra Molto Reverendissima io sono un povero Fratello ignorante, e difettoso e a niente buono. Ciò non ostante durando in me la stessa voce interna, anzi crescendo di giorno in giorno il desiderio di spendermi tutto quando sono e posso in servizio di Dio Nostro Signore e salute delle anime; ed insieme vedendo ì, che a qualche mio Fratello pure è toccata questa bella sorte; sono endrato in isperanza della grazia, e mi son fatto cuore a dimandarla a Vostra Paternità Molto Reverendissimo come ad interprete della divina volontà non altrimenti, che la chieggo da più anni al medesimo Dio, messovi di mezzo Maria S&lt;em&gt;antissima &lt;/em&gt;Immacolata.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Io non le scrivo alla lunga, per non essere capace. Solamente prostrato umilmente al piè di Vosstra Paternità Molto Reverendissima la prego con tutta l’effusione del mio spirito a farmi la grazia suddetta per amore del &lt;em&gt;Sacro &lt;/em&gt;Cuore di Giesù Crsito e di Maria S&lt;em&gt;antissima &lt;/em&gt;Immacolata. Io in riconoscenza non Saprò altro fare, che raccomandarlo ogni di al Signore e prometto di farlo. Intanto colla speranza di ottenerla quanto prima le bacio uminmente la mano, e le chieggo la S&lt;em&gt;antissima &lt;/em&gt;benedizione.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Mi tenga presente ne’ Suoi S&lt;em&gt;antissimi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;acrifici &lt;/em&gt;e sono&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;D&lt;em&gt;i &lt;/em&gt;Vostra Paternità Molto Reverendissimo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;? Soli!!!&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre Nostro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Pietoso Dio, io spregiai la tua legge quando mi viveva fra le tenebre del peccato, fra le vanità del mondo, fra i lacci del demonio, ed ora vi offro pel mal fatto tutto me, e mi getto nelle vostre paterne braccia, per voi corro generoso ad incontrare pericoli, affanni, e la morte ancora. Ma caro, o Signore, mi sarà il morire per recarmi a dar luce a miseri per cui voi su la Croce spargeste il sangue. Queste e simili voci innalzerei al mio Dio, se ella mi concedesse l'abbandonare questo terreno sì pietoso ed immondo, e condurmi invece ad abitare altra terra.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Vorrei almeno dar termine a' miei studi nell'America, ed incominciare ad addestrarmi con la gente di quelle parti a parlare la lingua di quel Paese, e adoperarmi a bene di quelle anime. E per porgere loro presto sovvenimento con candore di sentimenti le dico essere io disposto a lasciare gli studi, e con quel poco di cognizione che mi ho incamminarmi verso le terre degli infedeli barbari.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In somma io bramo ardentemente di fare sacrifizio di tutto me a Dio, e di spendere i giorni della mia vita a pro de' barbari, e per tal fine mi ho mutato il nome, e mentre prima mi chiamava Achille, ora mi chiamo Francesco Saverio il grande che spero nella grazia dell'Altissimo imitare per fatti. La prego che degni di farmi una risposta di consolazione ma presto, se non le recherà noia perché veramente io sono in pena, e non posso confortarmi. Ella certamente il potrà, ed io si lo spero. Non voglio intanto noiarla con più parole, onde senz'altro con pienezza di riconoscenza, e di filiale affetto, e con profondo rispetto mi segno della Paternità Vostra molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Umilissimo ed obbedientissimo suddito e figlio nel Signore&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Francesco Saverio Maria Ruta della della Compagnia di Gesù&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di Aquila 18 Aprile del 44&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre Nostro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Già molto tempo esposi alla Paternità Vostra il desiderio di lasciare gli studi per andare in ajuto de' Padri nostri che attendino alla conversione de' barbari. Ma alla mia preghiera non fu fatta risposta alcuna. La nuva apertura del convitto d'idolatri affidato alla cura de' Nostri mi dà animo a supplicare di bel nuovo la Paternità Vostra della medesima grazia. O che conforto sarebbe per me rischiarare le tenebre di que' miseri giovanetti che vivono nell'idolatria, e condurli al Signore in contracambio di quelle anime che a Lui tolsi co' miei scandali nel secolo! non creda pertanto che questo mio desiderio nasca da un certo fastidio che mi ha preso degli studi, ma dal considerare che questo avanzo di vita che mi resta è dovere che io tutto sacrifichi al Signore che con mostre singolari di amore mi conserva tra' suoi servi fedeli. Spesso Iddio benedetto mi manda inspirazione al cuore, poiché fino quasi dal principio della mia vita Religiosa non ho contato un giorno intero sì contento. Segno è questo per me di particolare dilezione che mi porta il nostro Celeste ed amorissimo Padre. vorrei più parlare, ma temo d'essere alla Paternità vostra d'essere nojoso, e però questo solo non voglio tralasciare di dirle di tutto cuore; che sono cioè stanco di vivere su questa terra arida, e povera di frutti non ostante le tante acque di salute che la bagnano, l'eletta rugiada che la fecondano, e la preziosa semenza che vi si gitta a fruttificare. Bramerei un presto favorele rescritto a questa mia per confortarmi e cantare col cuore in su le labbra l'inno di ringraziamento e di lode al Signore di cui spero ripetere come in questa così nell'altra vita le infinite misericordie. Ma se la Paternità Vostra mossa dallo Spirito di Dio non mi sarà cortese di siffatto benefizio io starò lieto come se l'avessi ricevuto. Veggo intanto che questo mio volontario rifiuto che fo degli studi per chiudere con gran prestezza nell'ovile del Signore l'anima sventurata non sarà troppo gradito alla Paternità Vostra. Però io mi contenterò di esercitare il mio uffizio di Maestro fra gli idolatri. Questo secondo pensiero le parrà forse strano, ma deve compatirmi perché parlo e penso col desiderio nel cuore di vivere fra i docili idolatri. Prego la Paternità vostra a valermi condonare il tedio che le ho arrecato, poichè mi sono proposto dar fine al mio scritto, e poi me ne sono dimenticato. In fine mi raccomando caldamente alle sue fervide orazioni, ed a' santi Sacrifizi mentre con pienezza di gratitudine, e con vero e filiale affetto mi segno&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della Paternità Vostra molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Obbed&lt;em&gt;ientissi&lt;/em&gt;mo suddito e figlio in Cristo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;G&lt;em&gt;iovanni&lt;/em&gt;-B&lt;em&gt;attista &lt;/em&gt;Sacchetti~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;M&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;to &lt;em&gt;Reverendo&lt;/em&gt; in C&lt;em&gt;rist&lt;/em&gt;o Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Non oserei sicuramente d’incomodare V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;in q&lt;em&gt;ues&lt;/em&gt;ti momenti, se la p&lt;em&gt;resen&lt;/em&gt;te esigesse riscontro, ma non avendo essa altro scopo che servire a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; di maggior lume per le determinazioni che va prendendo, mi lusingo non doverle riuscir discara.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;So quanto sia a cuore alla P&lt;em&gt;aterni&lt;/em&gt;tà V&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra il ministero S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;mo delle Missioni, e veggo con indicibile consolazione la cura che si dà di farlo rifiorire nella Compagnia nostra; e ciò meritamente, essendogli in gran parte debitrice la Compagnia della stima che gode ancora presso de’ popoli; ed anche per esser questo, a mio credere, l’unico rimedio, da cui al presente sperar si possa qualche giovamento. Ma novella com’è la Compagnia ha bisogno, come nel resto così anche in q&lt;em&gt;ues&lt;/em&gt;to, d’indirizzo, e di norma, onde non abbia a deviare dal buon sentiero. Sinora le circostanze e l’altre cure non l’han permesso, quindi è avvenuto che ciascuno ha fatto a suo modo, e si son seguiti tanti metodi di missionare quanti erano i geni, i fervori, e talvolta i pregiudizii de’ Missionanti; ed ecco tolta l’uniformità tanto propria n&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra, ed ecco il dire che noi non sappiamo più dar le missioni. Avrei pertanto giudicato opportunissimo il fare sul metodo di missionare ciò che s’è fatto sul metodo d’insegnare, e consultando i più esperti in tal materia determinare almeno in quanto alla sostanza il metodo da adottarsi nella Comp&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a, e da seguirsi universalmente. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;E sebbene anche in q&lt;em&gt;ues&lt;/em&gt;to bisogni adattarsi ai tempi, credo però che quanto meno si scosterà dall’uso dei nostri buoni vecchi, tanto riuscirà più fruttuoso alle anime. Il padre Maurizi a mio giudizio è quegli che in Italia conosce meglio d’ogni altro anche per esperienza l’antico nostro metodo di missionare, che risulta dalla Prattica delle Missioni del Padre Fontana, e dalle vite de’ nostri Missionarj, in ispecie del Padre Segneri juniore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Le accludo una lettera del B&lt;em&gt;eato&lt;/em&gt; Leonardo da Porto Maurizio su tal proposito, tratta dall’originale di pugno del Santo, che autenticata da M&lt;em&gt;onsignor &lt;/em&gt;Arciv&lt;em&gt;escovo &lt;/em&gt;qui si conserva presso i Sig&lt;em&gt;nori &lt;/em&gt;della Missione. Essa potrà dare anche maggior lume all’affare. Circa poi la scelta de’ Soggetti non mi occorre parlare a V&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra P&lt;em&gt;aterni&lt;/em&gt;tà, che ben conosce a ciò richiedersi persone di virtù ad ogni prova, che si manifesti anche al di fuori, essendo q&lt;em&gt;ues&lt;/em&gt;to il caso in cui la virtù interna non basta, dacche i popoli a ragione esiggono che sia santo chi va a santificarli, ed ogni occhio rivolto in su lui, ogni passo, ogni motto, ogni sguardo va soggetto ad esame e cesura, e dal concetto che si forma dei Missionari dipende in gran parte il buon successo della Missione. Tutto ciò io ho detto non per arrogarmi prerogativa veruna di sapere, o di prudenza, ma unicamente per l’amor che porto grandissimo alla Comp&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a, che vorrei vedere anche in q&lt;em&gt;ues&lt;/em&gt;to S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;Ministero utilmente occuparsi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Spero che la conosciuta bontà della P&lt;em&gt;aterni&lt;/em&gt;tà V&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra saprà compatire, e perdonare ad un figlio una libertà che procede da confidenza; e vorrà accettare e gradire i più umili e sinceri augurj d’ogni felicità, che per la sua lunga e prospera conservazione porge all’Altissimo l’infimo fra suoi figliuoli &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Se io potessi in queste poche rige dimostrare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;l’obligo, che per molti titoli tengo di dare la vita et il sangue per amor di &lt;em&gt;Christo&lt;/em&gt;, credo certo che la P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;u&lt;span&gt;a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;cooperarebbe, accio sodisfacessi a quest’obligo, concedendomi cio che li cerco, S’è degnata La D&lt;em&gt;ivina &lt;/em&gt;Bonta dal principio che io entrai nella Compa&lt;em&gt;gnia &lt;/em&gt;darmi un ardentissimo desiderio della missione nell’indie, qual desiderio essendo stato da me bene e spesso esaminato, e trovatolo sempre sodo e vero, mi spinse a farne instanza a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;con una Lettera, la quale per giusti e santi rispetti, il mio Maestro di Novitii P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;Andrea di Gennaro non l’invio a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;parendoli primo fervore di spirito. Finalmente scrivo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;questa matina dopo la sacra comunione della festa di Pentecoste per particolare inspiratione di Dio, pregandola con tutto l’affetto del core e con continue lagrime per le viscere di Giesù &lt;em&gt;Christo, &lt;/em&gt;che voglia darmi questa consolatione di mandarmi nell’indie, o in altro paese d’infedeli dove li parera per magior gloria di Dio, assicurandola che mi dara forza gratia, e cio che si ricerca per una tal impresa, Quel Dio che mi chiamò dal secolo alla Compa&lt;em&gt;gnia&lt;/em&gt; tanto miracolosamente quanto non mi conviene di raccontarlo tutto a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;per non fastidirla; Basta sol dire che havendo nel Collegio di Cosenza quasi tutti li Padri che mi opponevano un impedimento essentiale, per il che si rendeva quasi impossibile l’esser ricevuto, mi diede gratia di partirmi solo dalla Patria figliolo di sedici anni con pocha provisione di necessario, confidato nella sua providenza, a venirmene in Napoli dove tutti li Padri Consultori benche al principio facessero difficolta, con tutto cio come poi mi hanno confessato si sentivano tirare violentemente la volonta per ricevermi, il che mi è parso di far sapere a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;accio veda esser vera e soda vocatione di Dio, e non altro haver preteso Idio quando mi chiamò dal secolo alla Compa&lt;em&gt;gnia &lt;/em&gt;se non che io fussi defensore col sangue del suo S&lt;em&gt;antissimo &lt;/em&gt;nome. Del che fermissimamente spero che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mi consolarà, si per havermi parlato per ricevermi nella Comp&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a a tempo che era Provinciale di Napoli visitando il collegio della città di Cosenza nella Calabria, si anche per fare che io seguiti l’esempii di due miei zii, l’uno chiamato il P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;Gio&lt;em&gt;vanni &lt;/em&gt;Andrea Sambiasi vissuto e morto nella Compagnia con gran santita, et ardentissima vocatione dell’indie,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;l’altro chiamato il P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;Francesco Sambiasi il quale vivendo ogi dì nella Cina mi chiama a seguitarne li suoi santi esempii. E con tal fine facendoli humilissima riverenza e pregandoli da Dio queste sante feste, li domando la sua santa benedittione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;~[…] el 2 Settembre 846.~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La partenza prossima dell’ottimo nostro P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Antonio Bresciani mi porge comodissima occasione&lt;span&gt; di presentare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; i miei rispetti, ed al tempo stesso di poterle senza spesa alcuna parlare per lettera come tanto desiderava. Poichè tanta è la fiducia che ho mai sempre avuta verso di Lei, che appena ho bisogno di qualche cosa subito mi corre alla memoria la benignità con cui Vostra Paternità accolse ognora le mie suppliche; e così non posso a meno di non ricorrere a Lei anche di presente, affinchè si prenda la pena di esporre al N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Generale i desiderii ispiratimi dal Signore e dalla Madonna S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;ma di offrirmi di nuovo a Sua Paternità, perché se lo giudica &lt;em&gt;ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam&lt;/em&gt; mi collochi fra ‘l numero fortunatissimo di coloro, che sono da mandarsi alle missioni. Oh Padre mio! quante volte mi vengono le lagrime agli occhi in leggendo le lettere de’ P&lt;em&gt;adri&lt;/em&gt; Nostri missionari dove tanto è il bisogno che hanno di compagni, che ad ogni tratto lo ripetono; che cioè non sono da tanto riguardo alla messe che il benignissimo Signore loro va preparando: e però mi sento come per forza spinto nel mio [averla] confidando nella grazia del Signore a sclamare sovente: &lt;em&gt;ecce ego mitte me: ecce ego mitte me&lt;/em&gt;. I motivi che spesso vado meditando per vieppiù animarmi, e dove il mio cuore sembra che si accenda di desiderio ardentissimo al cui cospetto ogni dubbio in contrario ogni difficoltà dileguasi, sono questi ed altri somiglianti: gran consolazione che proverà un missionario al punto di morte pel sacrificio fatto privandosi per far bene a chi tanto abbisognava d’ogni umana consolazione, soffrendo molto per rendersi tutto a tutti: poi rendersi così simile a Gesù nella vita ai S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt;Apostoli, ai più gran santi della nostra cara Madre la Compagnia. Deh! mio &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; che queste sono cose che il mondo non arriverà mai a capire, nè noi potremo giammai abbastanza ringraziare il Signore che ci chiamò ed elesse per così alto ministero e per conseguenza per sì grande mercede in paradiso. Poiché altrimenti non vi sarebbe chi non volesse abbracciare una vita così fatta. Questi motivi torno a ripetere e lo sperare una grazia proporzionata da chi si degna di mettermeli innanzi non senza molta mia consolazione e speranza che saranno per essere di qualche efficacia presso i miei Superiori, credo che siccome ora mi muovono grandemente a domandare la grazia di essere spedito alle missioni, così nell’avvenire mi daranno lena per sopportare le fatiche ed i travagli che vanno necessariamente congiunti con un ministero così grande. Del resto mio carissimo Padre, io siccome nato da poveri genitori, ed allevato con poca delicatezza, così non mi fanno orrore anzi si può dire ancora che mi pare che non mi costerà molta fatica il soffrire e freddo o caldo, o fame, o cibi poco buoni, o letto poco comodo ec&lt;em&gt;cetera&lt;/em&gt; ec&lt;em&gt;cetera&lt;/em&gt; dove anche a questa mia disposizione venga in aiuto come ho detto la grazia del Signore. Se poi Ella mi domandasse e dove voglia andare? Dirò francamente che temo questa parola &lt;u&gt;voglio&lt;/u&gt;: dal resto leggo continuamente nei tempi liberi di studio le nostre cose del Paraguai e dell’America meridionale, e che col desiderio, col pensiero viaggio spesso quei luoghi santificati colle fatiche coi sudori, col sangue collo zelo dei nostri padri. Del resto sia fatta la volontà del Signore su di me: che anzi se non ha da essere per maggior gloria di Dio, quel bene della nostra Compagnia per quella dall’anima mia prego il Signore, che non venga &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;esaudita nè da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; nè dal N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Generale la mia preghiera, ma che il Signore si contenti dei soli miei desiderii e nulla più: chè io intanto pregherò per la salute di que’ poveri Indiani, affinchè per mezzo d’altri faccia che si salvano. Intanto dica pure al N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; che sono pronto a terminar quì od altrove o non terminar i miei studii se ciò fosse spediente per essere io esaudito: che qualche facilità ho per imparare le lingue ec&lt;em&gt;cetera&lt;/em&gt; ec&lt;em&gt;cetera&lt;/em&gt; che sono robusto ec&lt;em&gt;cetera&lt;/em&gt;, la lingua francese non mi è sì nuova, che con un po’ di esercizio non la possa parlare. Ella poi mi faccia la carità di indicarmi se qualche probabilità vi sarà di esser fatto degno di una tanta grazia: ed in che cosa possa andarmi o esercitando, o preparando nei tempi liberi, o pure se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; non crederà che si debba per ora far parola col P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; Generale non la faccia: parimenti se Ella crederà che in altro luogo dall’accennato in America la mia opera sarà per essere più utile, o altro consiglio opportuno non lasci per carità di comunicarmelo con tutta schiettezza; giacchè, mio Padre, si tratta quì d’un affare da cui può dipendere una mia maggior corona in cielo, e forse anche la salvezza di molti altri congiunta colla mia propria. Io intanto non tralascerò ogni dì di raccomandare il negozio al Signore ed a Maria S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;ma che si degni illuminare la mente e muovere il cuore di Lei e del Nostro Padre ai S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; ed [io] molto mi raccomando. Se ha qualche notizia de’ nostri non lasci di accennarmela. Sono&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Petit miss&lt;em&gt;iones&lt;/em&gt;~&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in &lt;em&gt;Cris&lt;/em&gt;to Padre Nostro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Il foglio che ora a Vostra Paternità si presenta è d'un figliuol suo, che se povero e scarso di ogni bene nell'amarla però qual Padre crede certo poter gareggiare con chichessia. Si, Molto Reverendo Padre ed amatissimo, io Le confesso col cuor sulle labra, che nello stendere queste prime righe colle quali per la prima volta a parlar mi rivolgo a Vostra Paternità mi sentii tutto di tenerezza compreso nell'animo, mi sentii figlio; e come tale a Lei vengo dicendo pien di fiducia e tutto insieme sperando.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io era ancor fanciullo e penetrato da salutevol terrore per l'incertezza della eterna salute stava sempre agognando alla felice sorte de' martiri per assicurarmi alla meglio il Paradiso. Quindi cercava se pure a' nostri dì v'avesse tiranni e persecutori di Cristo, e udito immolarsi ogni anno dagli infedeli qualche vittima cristiana, arsi anch'io nel mio piccolo cuore d'andare anch'io tra barbari a predicarvi Gesù per porre la vita in testimonio della mia Fede e volar dritto al cielo. Tali desiderii mi s'accrebbero poi colla lettura degli annali della Prop&lt;em&gt;agazio&lt;/em&gt;ne della Fede, nè mai affatto mi si estinser nel petto neppure allora che al toccar della adolescenza tra&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;giovani convittori miei compagni mi diedi con essi a godere la bella età in matte allegrie ed in divertimenti talor non buoni, che Iddio forse amorevolmente permise per chiudermi la via a me troppo facile d'insuperbire. Uscito dal convitto entrai nel seminario di Bergamo, dove, rinsavito alquanto, al partir che facea pel Noviziato di Verona l'ora P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Silvestro Grassi, ch'io amava singolarmente, sentii un forte impulso di seguitarlo. Chi fossero i Gesuiti, e qual Istitituto la Compagnia io nol sapeva; ma pure provai nel cuore alcuni slanci verso di essa, m'accorsi d'amarla. Allora fu ch'io presi lingua e cercai de' Gesuiti, sì che venuto al chiaro di ogni cosa e saputo tanti della Compagnia partir ogni giorno per l'Indie, per l'Australia per l'America ecc&lt;em&gt;etera&lt;/em&gt;mi rallegrai del trasporto che per lei sentiva, e dubitai non forse al Signore piacesse ch'io v'entrassi a servirlo in essa. Intrapresi gli esercizî spirituali; e tra lacrime e singhiozzi di cui io non sapeva io stesso la cagione non trovava altro conforto e pace che in dire, sì verrò, e il pianto crescea, ma sol per gioia e contentezza. Così dopo lungo trattare col mio Direttore Spirituale, dietro sua decisione, pel Novembre del 1845 fui al Noviziato in Verona. Intanto, benché a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; nol manifestassi, il mio desiderio facevasi più e più vivo quanto più vicino soddisfacimento apprendeva. La dispersion nostra mi fé creder piu agevole il mio disegno, ma per difetto di passaporto non potei neppure recarmi ad Issenheim e a Tolosa dove piu volte ebbi l'ordine di andare per continuarvi gli studî; e appena mi fu concesso il passo nel Veronese a S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Rocco in cui accoglievansi tre o quattro de' nostri. Quivi nel Febbraio del 1850 fui preso da una forte tosse che disprezzata ed aizzata anzi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;che presa in cura mi lasciò un'abituale infiammazione alla trachea. Le lunghe cure adoperate in seguito non m'aveano che affievolito e prostrato di forze; e già il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Antonio Benetello dicevami che non sarei piu guarito, e il P&lt;em&gt;adre&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Pietro Maria Viscardini che, senza una special grazia dal cielo, io dovea presto soccombere, quando dovetti partire per Modena e studiarvi Filosofia. Proseguendo così senza miglioramento giunsi alle Feste della S&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Nascita del Salvatore e di consenso del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Spirituale feci voto di consacrarmi tutto alle missioni degli Infedeli. Ora è già più d'un mese, che mentre prima il solo leggere, con qualche forza, di un quarto d'ora mi toglieva poter proseguire, ora, dico, faccio cogli altri la lezione alla comunità in Refettorio, e il giorno di S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco Saverio mio principale avvocato lessi ìo con voce ben forte, tanto che tutti ne maravigliarono. È perciò che, a mantenere la fatta promissione, io mi getto ai piedi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; e, con quanto maggior calore far posso, prego mi sia concessa questa sospiratissima grazia, per cui dallo Sposo della Vergine Immacolata io riconosco particolarmente donatami la salute. Anzi tante e tali circostanze si adunarono in questo successo, che io tengo per fermo avere Iddio disposte tali vicende per farmi ancor questo favore di mettermi sulla via che alla maggiore di tutte le grazie mi guidi, vo' dire a spender pel Nome suo la vita.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo Padre mio, me Le protesto sinceramente pronto ad ogni cosa per obbedirla; ma ora debbo pregarla a sciogliermi le penne al volo, che piu lieto e festoso innalzerò quanto piu lontano ed orrido sarà il termine ch'Ella mi fisserà. Spero che entro non molto giungami il fausto annunzio a disbramarmi tal fame che da nulla altro fia mai saziata. Che se scarsezza di dovute virtù rattenga V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; dal consolarmi, oh faccia Ella medesima, se altro non s'opponga, che a tal manco il cielo supplisca, mentre anch'io mi vi studierò fidente nella paterna benedizione che umilissimamente imploro da Vostra Paternità&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Umilissimo e Obbed&lt;em&gt;ientissi&lt;/em&gt;mo in &lt;em&gt;Cris&lt;/em&gt;to figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Gio&lt;em&gt;vanni&lt;/em&gt; Batt&lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt;ta Sangalli S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;I&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Modena. Il dì della Immacolata Concezione di Maria&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;Reverendo in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Segretario&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi rivolgo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; con somma riservatezza per un negozio che mi sta altamente a cuore, e m'infiamma tutta l'anima, affinchè lo tratti col M&lt;em&gt;olto &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; Padre N&lt;em&gt;ostro&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;a cui non scrivo direttamente temendo di recargli disturbo tra tanti travagliosi pensieri, che or lo debbono in ispecial modo occupare.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Prego dunque V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; caldamente di adoperarsi per una causa troppo graziosa. Sappia in prima che il dì 8. Decembre 1843. io feci voto col consenso ed accettazione di Nostro Padre d'imprendere qualunque missione apostolica in forma di penitenza, cioè pellegrinando a pie' scalzi, e vivendo d'accatto, e spendendomi tutto senza riguardo, al ben delle anime ed imitazione di piu nostri antichi Padri: e ciò solo al cenno del Padre Nostro &lt;em&gt;quoad tempus, quoad locu, et quoad modum&lt;/em&gt;. Nel rinnovare privatamente, come si suole, i voti della Compagnia, ho spesso spesso rinnovato anche questo. Le circostanze però non hanno fin qui permesso altro. Negli Esercizi che ho fatti sul finir di Ottobre e cominciar di Novembre mi si è rinfiammato questo desiderio a segno, che io non ho saputo tranquillarmi, se non che promettendo a me stesso che scriverei quanto prima; ma più che a me l'ho promesso a chi me ne porge l'ispirazione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Nelle orazioni, nelle visite, nella Messa, ne ringraziamenti della Messa, in Refettorio, e sempre questa voce, Scrivi Scrivi viliacco, infingardo, oh quante anime, oh quante ti darò vinte! e qui segnerei tutto il foglio, se le volessi descrivere gli eccitamenti alla vita apostolica nel modo sopradetto, che mi hanno soprafatto. Finora ho risposto a tali impulsi con orazioni raddoppiate, con lagrime, con riflessioni mature; e finalmente mi sono indotto a manifestare i miei sensi per mezzo di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza &lt;/em&gt;al Padre Nostro. Ma senta come debbo ciò fare, per aderire all'impulso gagliardo, e non potrei altrimenti senza sentirmi travagliatissimo. Siccome le circostanze de tempi non permettono al presente nemen di trattare per poco tali affari, io propongo al M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Padre Nostro di fare ai Sagratissimi Cuori di Gesù e Maria lui stesso offerta di tutto me per quando prima a cose calmate si potrà conforme il voto degli 8. Decembre 1843, Sicchè io poi sia tenuto impiegarmi tutto nella conversione dei popoli nel modo detto, e ciò senza altro ajuto che la missione del Padre Nostro. Io mi sento gran fiducia che tale offerta solleciterebbe non poco le Divine Misericordie sulla Compagnia. Il Signore mi vede il cuore, e ardirei dire, mi conduce la penna. Mi proporrei colla Divina grazia di risvegliare fortemente la pietà, il timor di Dio, richiamare la frequenza de Sacramenti, promovere, provocare zelo d'anime nella gioventù ecclesiastica, riformare seminarii e cleri cogli esercizii nostri (che ho molto ben [preparati]) e ajutare i vescovi in qualunque ministero di Gloria di Dio, e salute dell'anime. Non accade che mi stia ad esagerare il bisogno che ve n'è. La profanazione delle chiese è ormai giunta al&lt;em&gt;non plus ultra&lt;/em&gt;: la bestemmia allarga ogni dì più il suo dominio; non entriamo nel santuario per non sentirci gelare il sangue. Il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; rammenterà quel pochissimo che gli dissi una sera nella stanza di [porterìa] in S&lt;em&gt;ant'&lt;/em&gt;Andrea. Il sonno si fa sangue più profondo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non dico più. &lt;em&gt;Ecce ego mitte me&lt;/em&gt; a tempo suo, domando questa grazia prostrato a terra e con tutto l'ardore del mio Spirito:&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;mitte me; nescio loqui,&lt;/em&gt; è vero; ma la fiducia della divina grazie e l'impulso anzi l'impeto dello Spirito mi ripromette gran cose. Tengo per indubitato che i miei desideri pesati e strapesati con mature considerazioni siano frutto del Sangue di Gesù Cristo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Le forze fisiche poi sono robustissime. A prove fatte io posso confessare anche tutta la notte, predicare le quattro e cinque volte il giorno (crederebbe?) anche con vantaggio della salute, la quale più mi si convalida nelle grandi fatiche, perché sono di temperamento calorosissimo, che ha necessità di grande strapazzo. Ond'è che ora sono nel tormento per difetto di fatiche forti a cagione di calori intestini che mi producono tanti malanni, che poi vengono dissipati in tempo di sudori e strapazzi. Ho voluto aggiungere anche questo motivo per ajuto della causa del Signore.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Se al M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo &lt;/em&gt;Padre Nostro piacerà di accettare la mia proposta facendo l'offerta indicata, prego V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; di darmene un cenno, perchè mi pare che mi sentirei crescere piu e più lo spirito, e però mi occuperei con più di ardore nei preparativi all'opera di Dio. Lascio tutto in mano a Gesù Bambino e alla Vergine, e senza più raccomandandomi a S&lt;em&gt;uoi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici &lt;/em&gt;sono con vera stima e rispetto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;D&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Baldassarre Santi S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; I&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dopo aver messo a tutte prove il mio spirito, e praticati li mezzi che abbiamo nel libro degli Esercizi del Venerato Padre, ho conosciuto senza dubbio, essere volontà del Signore che io mi offra alla Compagnia disposto e pronto di spendere i giorni che mi restano del mio breve pellegrinaggio camminando a piedi scalzi e senza viatico di sorta in fatiche apostoliche dove quando e come vorrà l’ubbidienza. La quale offerta intendo di fare e faccio con tutto l’ardire e la esultanza del mio spirito in onore e gloria della Immacolata Concezione di Maria Vergine a piedi di Vostra Paternità lasciando quivi insieme coll’offerta la volontà pienamente indifferente a qual che ne sia l’esito. Forse il Signore non vorrà altro da me. Sarei troppo privilegiato…son troppi e troppo grandi li miei demeriti…mi sento arder di rossore in pensarvi. Oh bontà di un Dio per me!... Non posso spiegar ciò che sento, mi par di veder molto chiaro che ogni gran fatica e stento che mi facessi a salvezza delle anime sarebbe un vero nulla e a fronte di ciò che Iddio merita da me di amore e gratitudine, e di ciò che io merito da Lui di castighi e di flagelli. Prego caldamente Vostra Paternità di concedermi la grazia somma di obbligarmi a quanto ho proposto con voto speciale, che farei nel giorno della prossima solennità della Immacolata Concezione in onore e gloria di questa Prerogativa augusta della Vergine Santissima, la quale di questo suo titolo eccelso vuole in questi tempi più che mai servirsi a ricondurre traviati a salute, e versare sulla terra pioggia abbondante di grazie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Non intendo con questa offerta escludere le Missioni estere, per le quali non faccio istanza, sol perché ho troppo viva fiducia che, se il Signore vorrà, vi sarò mandato senza più.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Con profondo ossequio e figlial riverenza le bacio la mano e pregandola di cuore del soccorso di Sua orazioni sono&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;di Vostra Paternità&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo e Suddito &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Baldassarre Santi S.J.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Reverendo Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt; Baldassarre Santi novizzo della Compagnia di Gesù umiliato a piedi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;Paternità espone con piena indifferenza i sentimenti di cui è animato per la Gloria di Dio e per la Salute delle anime&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;E’ acceso di un desiderio ardentissimo di confermar tutto sestesso nelle fatiche apostoliche per ogni parte del mondo senza timore di stenti di prigioni di catene di morte, intimamente persuaso di non poter aspirare a gloria più eccelsa e di non poter incontrar sorte più bella e preziosa, che questa di patire e di morire per le pecorelle di Gesù Cristo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sente vivamente il debito di promovere la Gloria di Dio a qualunque costo; di seguire nelle più ardue imprese il gran Re che lo invita a propagare il Suo Regno e portare il conoscimento e la fede di Lui ai più remoti confini.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sente dolore vivissimo della perdizione di tante anime che costano quel che costano, e perciò gli pare che non lo lascierebbe mezzo intentato, e che praticherebbe ogni industria per la loro salvezza&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sente molto il bisogno di promovere con tutto l’impegno l’educazione della gioventù, e di prendere cura speciale delle tenere piante&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Appoggiato e confidato tutto in Dio non sa cosa possa spaventarlo o atterirlo dal volar &lt;em&gt;sicut sagitta in manu potentis&lt;/em&gt; fino agli estremi confini della terra per far conoscere ed amar Gesù Cristo, e cosa potrebbe ritenernelo fuori di Dio stesso per mezzo dell’ubbidienza&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Avrebbe prima bisogno di occuparsi due o tre anni nello studio della Teologia che ha fatto molto imperfettamente, e in qualche lingua, e in arrichirsi delle cognizioni necessarie: e intanto anderebbe ricevendo da V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;Paternità istruzioni e fuoco per le più grandi imprese della sola e maggior Gloria di Dio. &lt;em&gt;Sed omnia in manu Dei et tua&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in C&lt;em&gt;ri&lt;/em&gt;sto Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Quell'ineffabile sacrifizio che Iddio benedetto si è degnato chiedermi nel rinunziare a tutto e seguir la Croce, mi parve incompleto sino dal primo giorno del mio ingresso nella Religione; imperciocchè sentiva destarmi nell'animo un desiderio se più difficile più glorioso del primo: non era completo il sacrifizio, da me chiedeva Iddio cose più ardue. E alla lettura di ciò che sempre i padri nostri avevano operato tra i pericoli dell'apostolato mi si avvivava tal desiderio e pregava Iddio che presto venisse il dì sospirato di sacrificarmi intieramente alla Gloria di Lui e alla salute delle anime. Né, se non mi seduce il così parlare di me stesso, nè agli ardenti desiderî del mio noviziato, seguì poscia tranquillità e indifferenza; che anzi quando mi si porgeva libero il campo o di coadiuvare quanto poteva sull'Isola di Tremiti, o di catechizzare il popolo in quattro missioni, vieppiù l'animo mio diveniva focoso di sacrificarsi in cotal guise a bene delle anime. Se non chiesi pertanto alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendissi&lt;/em&gt;ma di volare dove poteva riuscir proficua l'opera mia resa forte dalla d&lt;em&gt;etta&lt;/em&gt; grazia, ciò fu perchè mi persuadeva esser difficilissimo di presente, a cagione degli studî incompleti, e lo riserbava a farlo quando colle scienze e più coll'esercizio delle virtù mi fossi meglio disposto a conseguirlo. Il perchè e co' superiori immediati e co' miei direttori di spirito soltanto mi apriva: essi mi rinforzavano ne' santi proponimenti.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ora ecco mi si porge un occasione che dopo di essermi consigliato col Padre Spirituale non posso far trapassare senza significare alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendissi&lt;/em&gt;ma il desiderio che Dio N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;ignore&lt;/em&gt; si degnò d'eccitarmi da tanto tempo: la sua determinazione mi sarà manifestata dalla determinazione della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra.&lt;/em&gt; Sia quando si voglia sia dove si vogliaio interamente mi rimetto con somma indifferenza alla sua decisione: solo le manifesto che io così desidero le missioni da poter compire con ciòa un sacrifizio che in ogni dì prometto a Dio di compire: in qualunque Ragione, quando la Volontà della Paternità Vostra avrammi detto: va è questa la porzione della tua vigna da coltivare. Faccia Iddio che sia animata del suo spirito la spoglia effralità dell'uomo peccatore!&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Umilmente infine prostrato a' piedi della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; le bacio riverentemente la mano di cuore raccomandandomi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Alla Paternità V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendissi&lt;/em&gt;ma&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Umiliss&lt;em&gt;im&lt;/em&gt;o Figliuolo in G&lt;em&gt;esù&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ciò che non mi fù possibile sottometterle a voce, mentre avemmo dal Signore la consolazione di godercela quì fra noi, ho creduto farlo per iscritto. Io non mi sento ligato alla mia terra natale da alcun vincolo, il quale mi possa impedire la libertà di portarmi fino ne' confini del mondo, se a Dio N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;ignore&lt;/em&gt; piacesse, ad illuminare del lume benefico della fede quelle nazioni che ne fossero prive; io feci questo distacco e questo sacrificio quando il Signore, (certo per Maria S&lt;em&gt;antissim&lt;/em&gt;a nostra Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;ra) si degnò chiamarmi alla Compagnia, dacendomi cessare dallo intrapreso corso di medicina, di cui circa due anni studiai le teorie più generali. L'unico impedimento che io trovo si è la pochezza di virtù; ma quando Iddio mi volesse missionario saprebbe fare. È questa la disposizione del mio spirito, la quale ho voluto non sia ignota alla Paternità V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;. Già io ne avea tenuto parola al R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Villeforte, e già credo ne avrà egli parlato a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;Paternità.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi raccomando ai Suoi S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; Sacrifici, e mi abbia qual sarò sempre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; Paternità Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;d&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt;ss&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt;ma&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Non faccia le maraviglie, se io così presto le torno a scrivere, e a chiedere di bel nuovo le Missioni, dacchè facendomi a ripensare sulla lettera già inviata mi parea d'essere stato in essa se non poco risoluto, almen poco fervido; io a conchiudere presto non farò altro in questa, che mostrarle alcune troppo valide premesse, ond'io ricavava la salutare conseguenza, poicchè non è affatto sensibile, o cosa simile, che al S&lt;em&gt;anto&lt;/em&gt; Desiderio mi trasporti: Io dicea dunque, ed oh quante volte ho ripetuto " 1&lt;sup&gt;o&lt;/sup&gt;.

Oh non così farei, se vedessi un misero in atto&lt;sup&gt;a &lt;/sup&gt;di precipitare, od affogarsi.....5&lt;sup&gt;o&lt;/sup&gt; Egli stesso il Signore par che mi chiami, e non dirado = Dunque chi non vede la conclusione che io traeva? Io ripeteva e ripeto, Signore se voi mi volete, e volete valermi di questo inettissimo verme &lt;em&gt;Baptismo habeo baptizare, et quomodo coarctor, usque dum perficiatur&lt;/em&gt;. Io sò che più d'un impedimento, massime la mia compassione non così gagliarda, potrebbe fare ostacolo, ma tutto ciò non mi dà mica pensiero, poicchè sò bene quali mani son quelle, in cui mi riposo, ed in cui mi abbandono; però non mi resta altro che chiederle la Paterna, santa Benedizione, e baciandole unitamente la mano mi soscrivo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;~Genova 11 di Febbraio 1843~&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io credo bene che la sua intenzione nel fare leggere le lettere dei nostri Missionarj nei Collegi sia appunto perché altri si eccitino nel andare in quei luoghi per lavorare a maggior gloria di Dio. Infatti questo effetto ha sempre prodotto questa lettura, e questa sia la cagione che mi spinge a scriverle le tre altre volte passate. Voglio anche adesso che sento che vi è gran bisogno in tutti i luoghi di gente, ricordare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la mia dimanda, pregandola caldamente a volermi chiamare quanto prima tra quei fortunati che spargon i loro sudori per la converzione degli Infedeli.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Spero che questa mia quarta supplica sarà da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; esaudita.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; Infimo in Cristo Servo e figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ho scritto più volte a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; come ben sa per le tante desiderate Missioni, credendomi di esser anch'io giovevole strumento di quel gran bene che in esse missioni si fanno; ma pare che per alcuni giusti mottivi che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non abbia in ciò volontà di esaudirmi. Da l'anno scorso quando Vostra paternità mi concedè di andare col P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Hernandez che poi il nostro R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Provinciale mi trattenne di cosi tanto bella sorte, che per me fa un colpo tale al cuore, che non saprei esprimermi, e benchè con l'ajuto di Dio mi rassegnassi al Divino volere ciò non ostante è rimasto in me per la mia cosi poca virtù, una tale malinconia che giorno e notte non mi lascia quietare, e non so come andrà finire se Vostra paternità non rimette rimedio col degnarsi di almeno concedermi, che io passi nella provincia di Francia per poter ottenere più facilmente il mio desiderio, mentreche lo stesso P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore del Noviziato tanto mi desierebbe se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mel concedesse.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono di Vostra Paternità&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in &lt;em&gt;Cri&lt;/em&gt;sto Servo e Figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Vostra Paternità non si sdegna, se sono troppo importune col dimandare di nuovo le Missioni straniere, come ben sa che sono da varj anni che stò continuamente sospirando così bella sorte, ma pur troppo mi veggo ben indegno di così tal favore; però vedendo ora che vi è un Padre che sta qui aspettando compagni per le Missioni del Brasile, per questo mi prendo la libertà di far di nuovo istanza a Vostra Paternità, se giudica bene nel Signore che mi ne vada con questi compagni.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Torni 1841. Dicembre 21&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io ho sentito che Vostra P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ha lasciato a disposizione del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale il mandare alle missioni straniere un padre e un fratello. Se mai ciò fosse vero, io mi sento un gran desiderio di essere io quel fratello da eleggersi per essere colà mandato. Se io esponessi questo mio desiderio al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale difficilmente, io penso, che sarei esaudito, e mi pare che assai più facilmente sarà appagato un tal mio desiderio se l'espongo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;. Già in due altre mie lettere io l'ho pregato a concedermi una tale grazia, ora per la terza volta io la domando, sperando vivamente di essere esaudito. Pertanto io la supplico ardentemente che quando V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; scriva al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale gli scriva insieme che io sia quel fratello destinato a portarsi nelle missioni straniere. Questa supplica con molto calore io la spingo anche perché stando io in queste parti sono spesso tormentato dai miei parenti i quali mi tentano intorno alla vocazione, e quasi mi pregano che ritorni con essi a viver nel secolo, il che mi riesce di non piccolo disturbo allo spirito. Inoltre mi pare che avrei qualche attitudine a tali missioni per l'ottimo stato di salute che godo in mezzo a tante fatiche che devo soffrire negli impieghi di guardarobiero di sarto e d'infermiere in una comunità sì grande quale è questa in cui mi trovo, e anche per qualche cognizione che ho dell'arte medica tanto utile in quei paesi. Per tutti questi motivi spero che questa mia supplica sara da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; esaudita.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; Infimo in Cristo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;servo e figlio Natale Savio d&lt;em&gt;ella&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;ompagnia&lt;/em&gt; d&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt; G&lt;em&gt;esù&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Reverendo in cristo Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Già da molto tempo in una mia lettera pregava V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; a volermi mandare alle missioni straniere, ma non ho avuto alcuna risposta: Per alcun tempo mi è sembrato dovermi acquietare, e tutto rimettermi alla divina volontà: ma dopo mi son sentito un forte impulso al cuore di replicare la stessa preghiera [a cui]&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;, accondiscendendo ho pensato d’inviarle questa mia lettera in cui la prego di prevalersi di questo stromento benchè debole in un’opera tanto difficile. Benchè sia debole il mio spirito, spero che il signore lo conforterà. in quanto alle forze corporali io mi trovo in ottima sanità valevole a sop&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;ortare lunghi viaggi, e molte fatiche. Il mio impiego è di sarto: ho una qualche idea dell’arte della medicina &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;al&lt;/span&gt;la quale procurerei con la licenza del provinciale d’impararla un po’ più se avessi una fondata speranza di dover un giorno andare alle missioni straniere. Ho anche un poco di pratica nel fare la barba; e inoltre ho studiato molto la [do]ttrina del Bellarmino, e potrei anche nelle missioni insegnare un po’ [di] dottrina Cristiana, e ancora la Aritmetica. Credo che V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non si offenderà di questa mia replicata domanda, mentre ho sentito che il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Bartoli per dodici anni continui ogni anno replicava la domanda di essere mandato alle missioni straniere. Sono ecc&lt;em&gt;etera&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Reverendo In C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to Padre.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In cinque anni e mezzo, da che sono nella Compagnia sempre ho sentito il desiderio, che potessi io avere una qualche parte, qualunque essa siasi, nelle fatiche delle Missioni straniere. questo medesimo desiderio siaccresce ancor vie più, nè posso dubitare, che venga da Dio; Pertanto mi sono risoluto comunicarla alla Paternità Vostra, acciocché, secondo i lumi, e le ispirazioni, che le darà il Signore, possa a suo grado disporre della mia persona; Frattanto io non mancherò di raccomandare ai S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; Cuori di Gesù, e di Maria la Paternità vostra, onde faccia di me tutto ciò che sia della maggior gloria di Dio, e salute delle anime. Posso assicurarla, che la sanità mia é costante, che la mia inclinazione è pel patire a profitto della causa di Dio ed a bene delle anime.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sia sempre Iddio benedetto. L’età non supera i 26. anni. Giudichi adunque la Paternità Vostra, se sia spediente nel signore di soddisfarmi in questo desiderio, e l’assicuro, che ne sarò sempre memore innanzi a Dio come d’un favore tra quanti mai il più gradevole. Le domando la santa Benedizione, e sono pieno di stima raccomandandomi alle sue sante orazioni, ed à santi suoi sacrifizj&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Della Paternità V&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Scol&lt;em&gt;astico&lt;/em&gt; Sebasti&lt;em&gt;ano&lt;/em&gt; Scaramuzza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;! ... manca riproduzione 701&lt;br /&gt;//&lt;br /&gt;Potrà per avventura parere strana la mia domanda, non avendo io più che diciasette anni d'età, e per essere ancora Novizio. Ma ben sa V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; come il Signore compiacesi chiamarea uno alla terza ora, altro alla nona, e come anche fra' dodici Apostoli C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;ignore&lt;/em&gt; N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; scielse Giovanni in età ancor giovanile. Credo che ne anco per essere Novizio non possa io non ottenere ciò che bramo, poiché io già non sarei il primo ad essere Novizio mandato fra i Barbari, leggendosi nelle Storie della Compagnia che d'altri fra' quali del P&lt;em&gt;adre&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Giuseppe Anchieta così avvenne. Vero è che il Noviziato di Verona non dissomiglia da quello di S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Luigi in America, ma essendo io ivi, sarei proprio nel campo, e con speranza più fondata di cogliere la palma sulla croce, o per la scure, od almeno con certezza di patire, e patire assai pel mio Dio. Mi pare che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non potrà temere che io essendo si giovane non regga a tanti stenti, mi perda d'animo in tanti pericoli che s'incontrano massime nel viaggio; sembrami che per questa parte possa stare tranquilla. Perciò ché sarebbe da temersi e da temersi assai che io dopo tante parole, ai fatti poi perdessi il cuore, se avessi fiducia in me stesso. Oh allora sì che ció accadrebbe; ma, la Dio mercè, conosco che mi sia capace di fare da me stesso, e però ogni mia speranza tutta é riposta nel Signore, il quale essendosi servito di un pastorello per atterrare Golia, ed avendo tanta virtù infusa negli animi di tenere Verginelle e timidi fanciulli per cui superarono gli eculei, e le infocate graticole, darà un po' di forza a me pure che voglio cercarlo, e per trovarmi a lui più vicino e per amarlo assai in Paradiso bramo l'America.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi pare che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non troverà più causa alcuna per la quale accondiscendere non possa alle mie suppliche; sebbene, sì, potrebbesi temere ancora, che cotal mio desiderio, cioè, altro non sia che giovanil fervore, il quale tosto svanisce. Riguardo a questo confido che nò; poiché é buona pezza di tempo che sentomi ardere da cotali desiderj, anzi con questi volle Dio trarmi alla Compagnia, e poi nel mese degli Esercizj mi si accrebbero assai, e non giá per avermi il Signore deliziato colle se dolcezze, che anzi trattommi con [farne] duro assai, e gliene sono grato.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non so che piú mi aggiugnere. Confido che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; vorrà annuire alle mie domande. Oh perché non sono io alla presenza di Lei? Vorrei gettarmi a suoi piedi, vorrei bagnarli di lacrime, né lasciarli finché ottenuto non avessi ogni cosa. Oh me beato infinitamente se l'ottengo! Deh faccia V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che deluse non sieno si belle mie speranze, deh faccia che non mi vegga tolta la palma che, ivi andando, confido cogliere morendo per G&lt;em&gt;esù&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt;, deh faccio che il bello de' miei anni consumar possa in duri patimenti pel mio Signore, ed a Lui fra 'l patire sacrificare le primizie! Beato me, il riperto, beato me, se l'ottengo!... Oh quante grazie renderò al Signore se mi viene concesso ciò che desidero quante alla dolcissima Vergine... e se nulla otter&lt;em&gt;r&lt;/em&gt;ò, non per questo, la Dio grazia, perderommi d'animo; ringrazierò pure il Signore, ma fin ché l'obbedienza mi permetterà, macererò questo corpo, onde col castigo della carne muovere Dio a concedermi una grazia tanto sospirata.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non mi resta per ultimo che domandarle umilmente perdono della libertà presami d'inviarle questa mia, ed in pegno del perdono che da Lei spero, la prego d[i e]terna benedizione, mentre mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;petit miss&lt;em&gt;iones&lt;/em&gt;~&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre!&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Prego V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; a perdonarmi se anche quest'anno, come l'anno passato, vengo a supplicarla di volermi concedere le tanto sospirate Missioni. Io ne sento tanto desiderio che più resister non posso, e mi costringe a chiederle a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; un'altra volta. Quando Le mandai la prima lettera in cui la scongiurava di appagare le ardentissime mie brame, mi fece rispondere dal R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore; piacerle questo mio desiderio, ma che per adesso mi acquetassi, stante la mia giovinezza, e che, cresciuto poi in virtù, e fatti gli studj, forse il Signore sarebbesi degnato di consolarmi. A questa risposta io mi posi in pace, offrendo a Dio il mio desiderio, e rassegnandomi al suo beneplacito. Ma questa brama infocata delle Missioni non che scemarsi, mi si va più sempre accelerando nel cuore, sicché d'allora in poi, ed a' presso ad un'anno, mi si é accresciuta del doppio. Sono continuo sul domandare al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore, ed al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale che procurino di farmele ottenere da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;. Il primo mi da sempre speranze, e mi suggerì di scrivere a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;in fine del mio noviziato, come fo colla presente; il secondo mi rispose una volta che dopo fatti gli studj Dio sarebbesi ricordato di me, ma per solito altro non fa che invitarmi a lodare il Signore con quel versetto: &lt;em&gt;Laudate pueri Dominum, laudate nomen Domini&lt;/em&gt;, e mi lascia così all'asciutto. Non però io mi perdo d'animo coll'ajuto del Signore, e confido in Maria che otterrò le Missioni quantunque mi fosser contrarj tutti quanti gli uomini. Oh se sapesse, Padre mio, come senza posa, e ardentemente io prego, e scongiuro questa Madre misericordiosissima a farmi finalmente arrivare alla meta dei miei desiderj. Dico finalmente; poiché non creda già che sia soli in questi due anni che passai nella benedetta Compagnia di Gesù, che io sentomi grandemente inclinato alle Missioni. Egli è ben molto più.. Fino al secolo io avea questo desiderio; fin d'allora sospirava alle Missioni, e piangeva perché non vi poteva andare, né sapeva trovar modo di arrivarvi. La Madonna S&lt;em&gt;antissim&lt;/em&gt;a mi mostrò la Compagnia, e mi dava sicurezza che, entrando in questa sarei sicuro delle Missioni. Ed oh! Per seguire la volontà di Dio, quanto non dovetti fare, quanto patire.... Le basti sapere che io arrivai qui a Verona di notte, solo da presso 200 miglia distante, in una città così grande, in cui non era mai stato, in cui non conosceva persona di sorta. Per sopra più ci avea indosso una piccola feb&lt;em&gt;b&lt;/em&gt;retta, oltre una certa natural timidezza il che tutto superai per piacere a Dio. Dovetti prendere come una specie di fuga, ne viddi pure mia Madre prima di partire; tutto per potere, entrando nella Compagnia, essere Missionario.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ed era disposto essere ancora di più, poiché venuto a Verona, né mi volendo prudentemente ac&lt;em&gt;c&lt;/em&gt;ettare il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore, perché siccome non aspettato, era ragionevole il dubitare che fossi un rag&lt;em&gt;g&lt;/em&gt;azzo vagabondo, io era risoluto di venire a Roma a cercar ivi d'essere ricevuto nella Compagnia, e m'era già informato delle città che dovea passare per giungervi. Ma la Madonna mi consolò poiché, gittatomi a' piedi del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore mi ac&lt;em&gt;c&lt;/em&gt;ettò nel Noviziato con mia altra grandissima consolazione. Oh quanto mostrò di predilig&lt;em&gt;g&lt;/em&gt;ermi la Madonna! Era assai tempo che io le chiedeva la Compagnia; Essa si degnò consolarmi... Ma ho ancora due grazie che le chiedeva, e le chiedo presentemente ad instancabili preghiere, e sono: le Missioni, e poi il martirio. Prima le Missioni... Voglia questa mia dolcissima Madre servirsi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; per consolare questo suo affezionatissimo, benché indegnissimo figlio. Io per consolar la Madonna ne' suoi dolori, la notte del Venerdì Santo la passai sempre meno un'ora con Esso a' piedi di Gesù Sacramentato, e Le offrii questo piccolo conforto perché Essa consolasse anche me, inspirando a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; di mandarmi alle Missioni. La Madonna che largamente ricompensa anche un minimo fioretto, spero che guarderà benigna la mia offerta. Di più, io sto sempre scongiurando Gesù Sacramentato per la medesima cosa. Anzi questi 8 giorni di Esercizj che feci in preparazione ai Santi Voti li passai quasi continuamente davanti a Lui, e tutte le preghiere che feci, le ho offerte tutte affinché conceder mi volesse le dilette Missioni. Ed è possibile che dopo tanto pregare non abbia ad ottener niente da Gesù Cristo che disse: chiedete, e riceverete, piacchiate, e vi sarà aperto? Oltre le preghiere offersi ed offro tutt'ora quelle penitenze che la santa obbedienza mi permette di fare. Il mese scorso fui mandato con mio straordinario contento ad un pellegrinaggio nel quale patii fame, sete, e fui costretto dormire due volte sul&lt;br /&gt;//&lt;br /&gt;fieno, ed un'altra sui nudi mattoni, e ciò tutto presentai al Signore affinché volesse consolarmi. Non dico io questo, M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; perché mi pensi essere qualche cosa, o mi lusinghi che per buono mi stimi V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;; Dio me ne guardi! ché in quella vece m'è forza confessare che trovomi molto indietro nella via del Signore, e se avessi ad accennare alcune sole delle mie miserie, sarebber cosa da far spaventare. Solo le palesai il sopra riferito per darle ad intendere quanto infuocata sia la brama che nutro nel seno per le Missioni; e perché so che parlo con V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; cui per non meritata grazia del nostro buon Dio, posso chiamare mio Padre. Torno dunque a pregarla, a scongiurarla per amor di Gesù e Maria di non volermi lasciare sconsolato. Adesso ho finito il mio Noviziato ed all'ora in che arriverà alla V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; questo mio foglio avrò già incominciati gli studj. Non potrei [mo'] seguitar questi studj anche ne' Collegj che ha la Compagnia in America? Ed i Nostri non hanno forse un Seminario anche nella Cina? Non potrei anch'io essere uno di que' giovani che ivi si educano? Mi accompagnerei coi primi Padri che c'andranno come un povero servitorello, e così assistendomi Iddio, vi giugnerei. Non dica V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che questa sarebbe una cosa stranissima e di somma inprudenza, e fors'anche ridicola il mandar alle Missioni un giovanetto; poiché cessa tutto questo quando lo vuole Iddio, ed almeno per me Dio lo vorrebbe, quando 'l volesse V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;. Mi dirà V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che l'educazione la posso ricevere anche quì. Questo non può negarsi; ma quanto più Apostolica la riceverei in que' Collegi che sono dirò cosi campì aperti di battaglia, che in questi quì, tranquilli, e pacifici. E poi; quando mi ci mandasse, io sarei estremamente contento di fare anche il mestiero di semplice catechista in vita, per il che non è necessaria tanta scienza ed età, leggendosi nelle lettere dei Missionarj che il fanno quest'opera dei giovani selvaggi; tanto più che l'essere Sacerdote mi mette timore, per dover ascoltar le Confessioni, e quindi d'ogni fatta peccati. E se di questo non sono giudicato capace, mi contento del grado di F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Coadjutore, a cui mi sento tanto inclinato. Li muovo, Padre, a compassione di me; procuri di fare ogni sforzo onde consolarmi. Io intanto, specialmente domani dopo che avrò fatto al Signore l'Olocausto di tutto me stesso per mezzo dei S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; Voti, il pregherò con tutte le mie forze a muovere il cuore di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; a mio favore. Ardisco per ultimo di pregar V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;a voler darmi la consolazione di ricevere da Lei due linee in risposta a questa mia, scritta di suo pugno, le quali avrò care come un tesoro, e mi metteranno in cuore gran fervore. Implorando pertanto la paterna sua benedizione, mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La propizia occasione, che mi s'offre, del ritorno del Padre Basile in cotesta; la bontà ed il piacere singolare, col quale, la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; accoglie le dimande de' figli della Comp&lt;em&gt;ag&lt;/em&gt;nia per le estere missioni; unite queste cose insieme al mio gran desiderio per le missioni; mi determinarono diriggere alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; queste poche righe, le quali V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; leggendole deve immaginare vedermi presente inginochiato ai suoi piedi pregandole della grazia, che qui le espongo. A dedicarmi a Dio nelle estere missioni, come già a Lui me ne sono offerto con voto, null'altro mi resta, secondo quel che il Padre Basile mi ha fatto sapere, se non esser sacerdote. Et a questo alto grado arrivar non posso se non fatti gli studii teologici: quindi espongo alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;, che attesa la mia età già a sufficienza avanzata di 25 anni, che se &lt;em&gt;in Domino&lt;/em&gt; lo giudicherà, avviserà i miei Superiori mediati a farmi applicar presto agli studii teologici, e se cosi anche lo crederà nel Signore, fare questi stessi studii, come suol dirsi, &lt;em&gt;per breviorem&lt;/em&gt;. Io presentemente son maestro di grammatica a Caltanissetta: del qual ministero resto contentissimo per il bene, che a gloria di Dio ed a prò de prossimi si può operare; e se non fosse il desiderio delle sante missioni, io punto non avrei fatto alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; tale dimanda, sicuro, che il bene che fa un maestro, non sia inferiore a quello d'un operario nelle nostre contrade. Finalmente significo alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; che in caso che avrà bisogno di qualche scolastico per le estere missioni, &lt;em&gt;ecce ego mitte me&lt;/em&gt;: di più che questo mio desiderio per le missioni, si estende per qualunque parte del mondo, particolarmente però dove c'è più da patire e fatighare per amor di Gesù Cristo, come p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; e&lt;em&gt;sempio&lt;/em&gt; nella missione che fonderà P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ryllo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La prego scusarmi l'ardire, tenermi presente nelle sue orazione e compartirmi la sua paterna benedizione&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Valletta 11 Febbraio 1842.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Dopo un anno di esilio, cioè dopo un anno che fui lontano dal caro seno della mia amatissima Madre la Compagnia, io ritorno e domani, piacendo a Dio, partirò per Palermo. Di questo favore, che a mio creder maggior di lui non havvi, dopo Iddio e la S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;ma Vergine alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda &lt;/em&gt;ne sono debitore. La ringrazio adunque con tutto il cuore ed in segno della mia riconoscenza le prometto di pregar il Signore per lei in tutte le mie Orazioni. Spero ora che la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;come mi consolò nel mio primo desiderio così anche mi consolerà nel secondo cioè delle Missioni straniere dalle quali promisi il Signore di dedicarmi con voto, se ciò mi sarà permesso dai Superiori, ogni qual volta mi concedesse il ritorno nel seno della Compagnia. Io so cha a tutto sono inabile, ma spero avvenire col ajuto di colui che mi da questo desiderio di poter aver questa grazia. Sono pronto di andare ovunque; sento però un desiderio per la Siria di ciò parlai al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ryllo. La prego di tenermi presente nelle sue orazioni, e trovandosi alquanto disocupato di riscontrarmi con qualche sua letterina che mi servirà di sua memoria;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;sono con tutta la stima e rispetto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;M&lt;em&gt;olto &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do in Christo Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In questo giorno consagrato alla memoria del gran Apostolo delle Indie, ho mandato in effetto la grazia che la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; si è degnata concedermi: cioè mi son consagrato a Dio ed unito alla Compagnia coi santi voti. Favore grandissimo al certo del quale dopo Dio, alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; sono debitore. La ringrazia dunque il Signore per me: ed io in pegno della mia gratitudine non potendo far altro le applicherò per un mese tutte le opere di devozione. In questo giorno pure, col consenso del Padre Spirituale, ed anche partecipato il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale, ho fatto il voto delle missioni, il qual voto l'avevo promesso a Dio se mi fosse dato di ritornar nella Compagnia, quando ero ancora in Malta. In adempimento di questo voto, esterno alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;, quello che un tempo feci anche di presenza, la brama di aver questa grazia, e per quanto sia possibile, che ciò non tirasse a lungo. Conosco che per adesso, a causa degli studi non son capace ma coll'ajuto di Dio spero di esserlo. Io da parte mia desidero, anzi di ciò ne ho fatto anche voto, di esser pronto ed internamente voler solo far di studio quanto è necessario per un Missionario fra gli Arabi. Benchè sono indifferente a qualunque parte, sento un inclinazione particolare, come è noto alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; per la Siria. Adunque la supplico a suo tempo della grazia. Quando sarò capace di farla da Maestro d'infimetta in Bejrut come il F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Vecchi; eccomi pronto alle disposizioni della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; spero molto nella S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;ma Vergine Maria, la quale sin ora mi consolò in tutte le mie brame, sarà per consolarmi in quest'unica (da poichè che ho fatto i santi voti e so che quasi di certo non posso perder la gioja della santa vocazione non desidero altro che le missioni straniere). La P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; si degni di tenermi presente nelle sue orazioni onde aver da Dio compito questo santo desiderio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono con tutto l'affetto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in Christo figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do in Christo Padre.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Benché con rossore in faccia confesso la mia importunità in reccar alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;molestia con questa mia; pure l'ardore che internamente nutro, mi fa creder che appresso la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;sarò compatito. La risposta che si degnò mandarmi per mezzo del R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale, in risposta alla mia dei 3 dello scorso decembre; cioè che saranno effettuati i miei desideri intorno alle missioni estere, non fu altro che aggiungere legna al fuoco, aumentando, dico, di giorno in giorno questo santo desiderio. Desiderava io molte volte di sfogar il mio ardore con chi solo mi può dopo Dio consolare, cioè colla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;ma la [...] di recarle molestia mi proibiva. Questa volta però non ho potuto far di meno: Ecco qual'è la ragione. Benché io mi senta disposto, coll'ajuto di Dio, ad andar in qualunque missione che all'santa ubbidienza piacerà mandarmi; pure come è noto alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;più Iddio nostro Signore mi da desiderio per la Siria; or avendo inteso che per la ventura primavera sarà in Beyrut aperto il convitto, non crederei tempo meglio opportuno, onde rinnovar le mie dimande. Ma la scarsezza degli studi è forse quella che mi è d'impedimento. Lo confesso questo, P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda &lt;/em&gt;ma io rinnovo le dimande fatte nell'ultima mia, cioè di farla da maestro di gramattica ed infima gramattica intanto da uno di quei Padri proseguir quegli studi necessari a formar un operario degli Arabi....... A questa dimanda aggiungo ora di poter farla anche da prefetto dei convittori. Se la dimanda, attese le mie infime qualità pare avanzata, spero che quel Dio che tali desideri mi da nel cuore, forza ancora mi darà onde poter metterle in effetto. Se degli studi sento bassamente, questo ne viene dall'aver l'anno scorso lette la lettera del P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;Riccadonna, diretta ad alcuni padri di Napoli, con cui dava relazione della sua missione al &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Kurdistan&lt;/span&gt;, dove diceva agli studenti che le lavorate prose, e le scelte poesie non sono per un operario in quelle parti, d'onde io dedussi non esser necessaria per me, che desidero in particolare questa missione del &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Kurdistan&lt;/span&gt; feconda di patimenti, tanta copia di erudizione. Finalmente conchiudo pregando la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;che per i meriti dei S&lt;em&gt;acri &lt;/em&gt;C&lt;em&gt;uori &lt;/em&gt;di Gesù e Maria d'onde spero d'aver questa grazia, che si degni dal più presto concedermela, onde poter fare e patir per Gloria di Dio qualche cosa. La prego scusarmi del mio ardire, e di tenermi presente delle sue orazioni e sagrivizi; [...] la sua paterna benedizione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in Christo Figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Benedetto S&lt;em&gt;averio&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;aria &lt;/em&gt;Schembri S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Non avrei ardito certamente annojare la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; con questa mia, sapendo d'altronde in quali e quanti negozii di rilievo è sempre mai occupata; se non fossi da una parte a me stesso consapevole del modo con cui ella accoglie di presenza i di lei figli, per quello che io stesso ho sperimentato, quando novizio in cotesta casa professa aveva la sorte di farle qualche visita; e dall'altra se non fosse il mio desiderio per le missioni, il quale di giorno in giorno, non ostante le astratezze degli studii di fisica e matematica, per grazia di Dio va sempre crescendo, che a tanto mi spinge. Adunque non sapendo più che fare, per sfogare la piena del mio cuore; io mi rivolgo alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;e manifestandole, che oramai essendo sulla fine degli studii filosofici, secondo il costume della Compagnia aspetto nel principio dell'anno scolastico d'esser destinato a far scuola; la supplico per i meriti del N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anto&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ignazio, di cui ella in questo terra fa le veci, che se mai, come spesso le occorre, avesse bisogno di mandare qualche scolastico in qualche missione straniera, qualunque essa sia ed in qualunque parte, a far scuola e [cosi addestrarsi a riuscire] un giorno operario in quella vigna del Signore; &lt;em&gt;Ecce ego mitte me.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Sappia V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che per sollecitar Dio a concedermi questa grazia, ho offerto un centinaio di messe a sua Divina Maestà, ed altrettante coroncine ai Cuori S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; di Gesù e Maria; ed in questo giorno consecrato a Maria, dopo avere meco per tanto tempo deliberato, risolvei farle la su fatta proposta. Null'altro, se non pregandola di scusarmi dell'ardire, le rinuova la preghiera, onde siccome la V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; Pa&lt;em&gt;ternità&lt;/em&gt; fu quella che m'ammise, e riamise nella Compagnia, e mi concesse ancora di fare i santi voti; così ancora ella farà che mi consoli in [questo più] desiderio delle missioni, per le quali essere stato io chiamato alla Compagnia ho non mediocre sicurezza&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La prego di tenermi presente nei suoi suoi s&lt;em&gt;anti&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;sacrifici.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do in Cristo Padre.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Coll’occasione del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Procuratore, animato dalla consolazione, che prova un figlio nello scrivere al padre; prendo l’ardire, non già di reiterare la dimanda delle missioni, il che al certo non sarebbe conforme gli ordini della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; manifestatimi per mezzo del R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Prov&lt;em&gt;incia&lt;/em&gt;le, cioè non esser più mestieri scrivere alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;: ma semplicemente per comunicarle quei desideri ed ispirazioni, che il Signore mi comunicò, onde conosciute, potrà meglio di me, come a Dio piaccia, disporre. Da prima le significo, che se il Signore Iddio, m’aveva prima dato desiderio per ogni missione particolarmente per quella di Siria; in quest’anno e mezzo da che più non pe scrissi: mi fè sentire acesissime brame per ogni missioni dove più si lavora e patisce, come per esempio Maduré, Cina, fra i selvaggi nell’America e nell’Algeria. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di più, avendo conosciuto dal catalogo delle missioni, annesso a quello della Provincia Romana, il quale io ogni anno voglio con avidità leggere, per ringraziare il Signore ed accendere sempre più il mio zelo per i progressi delle nostre missioni; che vi sono degli scolastici impiegati nel ministero delle scuole, mi sentii ispirato a manifestare alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; questo desiderio d’esser pronto, cioè d’andare ovunque avrà bisogno della meschina opera mia in tal impiego. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;F&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;inalmente dalla notizia delle missioni d’algeri avendo rilevato, che quei nostri P&lt;em&gt;adri&lt;/em&gt; non potevano finora attendere alla conversione degli arabi atteso l’impedimento della lingua; mi sentii mosso ancora di esibirmi alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; per quella missione attesa la mia lingua nativa, Araba al quanto corrotta ma affinissima a quella degli arabi d’Africa. Ecco quanto il Signore m’ha comunicato di nuovo intorno alle missioni. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; giudica opportuno, avendo or terminato i due anni di Rettorica, di intraprendere il corso delle scienze, [&lt;em&gt;per breviddem&lt;/em&gt;]; io con [...], quanto lo faccia sapere al R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Prov&lt;em&gt;incia&lt;/em&gt;le; che di ciò anche io intendo esporre il mio desiderio. La prego di scusarmi dell’ardire richiedendola ancora di consolarmi di questo mio desiderio: la ragione per cui avanzo questa dimanda, si è, che, quantunque stò bene di salute, e conto ancor 23 anni; pure sento un non so ché, internamente, che mi dice che io abbia a viver poco, perciò desidererei non comparir vuoto al tribunale di Dio; ma d’altronde il merito dell’ubbidienza è anche sufficiente per isconto delle mie colpe. Pregandola di compartirmi la sua paterna benedizione mi dichiaro con tutto l’ossequio;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Non ardirei certamente disturbar le serie occupazioni della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;; se non fossi consapevole della sua bontà verso tutti i suoi figliuogli, da me di presenza sperimentata quando novizio in cotesta casa professa veniva a farle qualche visita. Lo scopo per cui le diriggo queste poche righe si è il ricordarle ed esporle anche di nuovo le ardenti brame che il Signore eccita in me; e specialmente eccitò in questi giorni di vacanze, per le sante missioni. Da prima le dico che in quest'anno diedi fine agli studii di filosofia, della quale diedi l'esame e coll'ajuto di Dio sono stato approvato: ora non sò cosa di me farà il R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Prov&lt;em&gt;incia&lt;/em&gt;le. Io mi esibisco alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; in caso che avrà bisogno di scolastici per qualunque missione: a far questa esibizione mi confortò l'aver veduto nel catalogo della provincia Romana nell'appendice delle Missioni, che la R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; eziandio nelle missioni abbia spedito scolastici. Di più le propongo~~,~~ che, attesa la mia età di 29 anni se la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; giudica che mandarmi presto alle Missioni, che gli studii teologici gli faccia presto e &lt;em&gt;per breviovem&lt;/em&gt;; io sono da parte mia dispostissimo e non ha altro che farmelo sapere per mezzo del N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Prov&lt;em&gt;incia&lt;/em&gt;le. La missione di Mons&lt;em&gt;ignor&lt;/em&gt; [Casolari] mi scrive da Malta il Maestro [Fenich] e da Noto il Maestro [Nandi], è tutta pei maltesi: V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mi dia la grazia di inaffiar col mio sudore questo campo [si...] ed arido. Sappia la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; che tanto alle missioni, come anche ad abbreviar gli studii per [...] presto in queste, io mi sono obbligato a Dio con voto particolare, mercè del quale ottenni la grazia della vocazione e perseveranza in essa, alle quali ebbi molte contrarietà, come la R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ben sa. Adunque V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che mi accettò nella Compagnia, che mi diede la grazia di far i santi voti; mi dia ora la grazia delle missioni, se non questa almeno al presente la grazia di prepararmi per aver le missioni dal più presto. La prego di darmi la sua paterna benedizione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono con tutto l'ossequio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Il desiderio ardente delle missioni che Dio nostro Signore si compiacque accendermi in cuore fin da che entrai nella Compagnia; fù il motivo per cui io rinunziai al corso intero degli studii, onde poter più presto e fornito di quella scienza, che a sufficienza richiedesi, applicarmi all'esercizio del santo ministero: di questa rinunzia nè sono contentissimo, di quella che io ne abbia, nelle cose teologiche, non solo è utile, non eziandio necessaria a chi è chiamato ad una vita apostolica, spesse fiate mi posero a [...] la mia poca utilità e quindi a dimandare commodo e tempo per la continuazione di quegli studii, che mi mancano: non già con animo di riguardar indietro dopo aver ~~aver~~ messo mano all'aratro, che sarebbe un infedeltà al Signore, un pentirsi del sacrifizio fattogli, ma solo per fine di ripulire l'aratro, aguzzargli la punta, renderlo atto a far solchi più profondi nel campo del padre di famiglia - Si fatti pensieri, li ho manifestati in questi giorni a superiori ed a chi mi governa nello spirito, e tutti di unanime [coscienza] furono d'opinione, che io colla dovuta indifferenza e con tutta la figliale sommissione manifestassi alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt; quanto siegue.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;" Consideratasi la mia età, ancor di trentunanno, e gli studii già ora fatti, completati, cioè, fino la filosofia, nulla di dogmatica, e quattro soli mesi di morale; considerando l'idoneità, che indi ne rinascerebbe, di servire maggiormente la Compagnia a procurare la salute delle anime nelle missioni qualora fossi meglio istruito; avuto riguardo al modo provvidenziale con cui mi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;trovo in Europa, e veduto anche l'esempio del N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anto&lt;/em&gt; Padre, che per procurare al Signore maggior gloria, si astenne al quanto dal trattar coi prossimi per fornirsi di quella scienza necessaria a si nobil fine; con piena indifferenza e senza veruna sollecitudine di esser[mi...], quello che io dimando o no; prego la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt; che qualor così &lt;em&gt;in domino&lt;/em&gt;, lo giudicherà, per maggior gloria divina, salute mia e dè prossimi, che si compiaccia accordarmi tempo e commodo per provedermi di maggior scienza nelle cose teologiche, o facendo l'intiero corso, od abbreviando l'intero, o cumpendiando la stessa via breve, il tutto come V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; giudicherà più opportuno senza riguardo alcuno sul conto mio: con ciò, Le ripeto, non intendo rivocare la rinunzia antecedente, solo però sgravarmi di un peso in coscienza ed accertarmi meglio della divina volontà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono con ogni figliale riverenza&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Carissimo mio Padre che governa l'anima mia per la via del Paradiso.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi Prendo la libertà di scrivere queste due righe a Vostra Paternità, e di manifestargli li miei desideri, giacche il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;aria&lt;/em&gt; Riccadonna mi hà mandato a dire che scrivesse a Vostra Paternità, questo e stato sempre il mio desiderio di morire per Gesù Cristo, e vero che sono un indegno peccatore, ma confidando nella Misericordia dello Signore, che mi perdoni tutto il passato, e con la Sua Divina Grazia, di essergli fedele sino la morte.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Caro mio buon Padre perdoni di questa proposta se hò mancato e lo prego in Nome di Gesù e di Maria, a non cacciarmi da questa Santa Compagnia. la proposta e questa, che se vostra Paternità crede, di mandarme con le sante Missioni tra' barbari ed infedeli, e dove a vostra Paternità piacerà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ma gli so dire che sono pieno di difetti e poca abilita, come il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;aria&lt;/em&gt; Riccadonna ben sà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non lo fo perché qui stia male, anzi stò benissimo, solo per il desiderio che io hò di andare in queste parti se però la Santa ubbidienza mi manderà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Caro Padre gli chiedo perdono di questa mancanza di scrivere a vostra Paternità, e per averalo fatto senza licenza de miei Superiori, e come un fratello quadiutore abbia l'ardire di scrivere queste cose alla Paternita vostra, senza virtù, e poca abilita, dunque mi rimetto tutto nelle mani di vostra Paternita, io hò scritto male perché poco sono scrivere;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Dunque gli raccomando questo mio buon desiderio e pregare indegnamente il Signore che mi assista;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Eccomi a vostri piedi umilmente gli chiede la Santa Benedizione&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Vostro Figlio peccatore&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;L’obligo che ho di cercare qualsia La volontà ch&lt;em&gt;e&lt;/em&gt; Dio per poterla perfett&lt;em&gt;amen&lt;/em&gt;te eseguire mi fa ricorrere come ad interpretre di essa à V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;span&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;esponendogli con queste poche righe il desiderio che La divina Bontà d’alcuni anni in qua si è degnata contro ogni mio merito communicarmi di impiegare nell’Indie a benefitio di quell’anime questo poco di vita che mi resta, sperando in questa maniera di ricomprare il tempo che ho fin qui si malamente speso. È ben ven che nell’esecutione di si bon pensiero mi cagiona qualche perplessità la vera notitia che ho della mia molta insufficienza, per la, quale dubito d’essere instrumento inhabile per una si grande impresa, conoscendo benissimo in me la mediocrità della sanita, et ingegno, la debbolezza dellà memoria, il poco talento di predicare si per l’imped&lt;em&gt;imen&lt;/em&gt;to naturale della lingua, come anche per la penuria delle parole, una conscienza scrupolosissima et fuor dimodo perplessa nel operare, la natura assai timida et malinconica sottoposta à molestissimi pensieri, quali per alcuni anni mi hanno grandemente travagliato et poco meno che stravolta l’imaginatione, se bene al presente sono d’essi in gran parte sollevato. Nulla di meno io crederei che la Divina Bontà giache si è compiaciuta di favorirmi di si sante inspirationi fusse con la sua infinita potenza per supplire a tuti questi miei fisici et molti altri morali difetti, solendo essa talvolta elegere per imprese grandissime le cose piu vili et abiette. Ho voluto tutto questo con ogni schiettezza aprire alla sua molta Charità, accioche in un negotio di tanta importanza risolva quello che giudicara esser maggior gloria di Dio, la cui santissima volontà stimarò perfettamente esequire con obbedire puntualmente a i prudenti consegli di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;a &lt;/span&gt;a cui per fine faccio humilis&lt;em&gt;sim&lt;/em&gt;a riverenza con raccomandare me et questo mi bon desiderio a suoi santi sacrificij&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;m&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;to &lt;em&gt;R&lt;/em&gt;everen&lt;em&gt;da &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Mio Molto Reverendo Padre in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Avendo io risaputo che la Paternità Vostra e il &lt;em&gt;Padre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale non si sono indotti a concedermi la partenza pel Maryland, attesa principalmente la mia maniera di esprimermi, che è sembrata essere troppo vaga e indecisa, ho creduto necessario esporre direttamente alla &lt;em&gt;Paternità&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Vostra&lt;/em&gt; le disposizioni dell’animo mio a questo riguardo, non per importunarla in modo alcuno, ma affinché da parte mia non derivi che la volontà di Dio non si adempia in me, rassegnato nel resto a quello che disporrà la &lt;em&gt;Paternità&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Vostra&lt;/em&gt; ---- Sappia adunque che colla mia scritta al &lt;em&gt;Padre&lt;/em&gt; Secretario non ho inteso di esporre una semplice neutralità ed indifferenza passiva intorno all’andare, ma avea in animo ed ho tuttora di fare una offerta non solo, ma una positiva domanda piena di desiderio di servire la compagnia in questa spedizione, se essi mi giudicano abile. Se io non feci istanze più pressanti ne fu cagione il credere che allora io faceva, non esser mestieri d’altra più spiegata dichiarazione. Mi ritraeva inoltre da ciò il riflettere che forse non avrei potuto adeguatamente ai bisogni di colà soddisfare nell’impiego della scuola, perché quantunque mi paia di poter fare sufficientemente le scuole di fisica e matematiche elementari, pure cercandosi anche chi fosse in grado di dirigere l’osservatorio, e chi avesse cognizioni di storia naturale, né sapendo io, per ora, molto di tali cose, avrei creduto imprudenza il mettermi avanti io da me, per non avere poi a render vane le concepute speranze. Di più qualche incomodo di cui mi risento, mi fece stare anche esso un poco renitente alla &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;espressa&lt;/span&gt; domanda. Ora però che sento che la prima di queste cose non fà loro difficoltà, né io credo che la seconda possa impedire, anzi forse ne potrei migliorare, apro totalmente alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; questo desiderio che Dio mi dà, e intendo di fare così tutto quello che per parte mia riguardasi in questo affare. Con sommo trasporto, Padre mio M&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;to Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do, io prenderò questa occasione di testificare alla Compagnia la gratitudine che io mostro verso di Lei, da cui io riconosco quanto sono, e godo che mi si presenti questa circostanza di poterla servire, così non ostino i molti altri demeriti miei.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Del resto io mi rassegno totalmente nelle mani della S&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Ubbidienza, affinché faccia quello che crede essere di maggior gloria di Dio e bene dell’anima mia, e così pregando V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; a volersi ricordare di me nelle sue orazioni, mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;to Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;da&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo e Ub&lt;em&gt;bidientissi&lt;/em&gt;mo Figlio in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;A&lt;em&gt;ngelo&lt;/em&gt; Secchi d&lt;em&gt;ella&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;ompagnia&lt;/em&gt; d&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt; G&lt;em&gt;esù&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ristringendo in poco il molto, che m’occorre d’humilis&lt;em&gt;simamen&lt;/em&gt;te rappresentare à V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;circa la mia vocatione all’India, con ogni verità dico essere ella durata lo spazio di dodici anni continui, che sto indegnam&lt;em&gt;ente &lt;/em&gt;nella Religione, è non solo non essersi mai intepidita, ma se&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;pre piu infervorata in occasione massime di ritiram&lt;em&gt;en&lt;/em&gt;to ò per gl’esercizij spirituali, ò per la rinovazione de voti, è molte altre volte con insoliti stimoli accesa. A questo s’aggiunge l’haver io pe&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;sato molto bene à tutte le difficoltà, che potessero ritirarmi ma no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; hanno servito se no&lt;em&gt;n &lt;/em&gt;per confermarmi maggiorm&lt;em&gt;en&lt;/em&gt;te nel proposito a&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;zi nel voto fatto ultimam&lt;em&gt;en&lt;/em&gt;te con approvazione di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;di procurare colla maggior insta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za che potrò la missione all’India, ove habbia da spargere tra mille fatiche in servizio dell’Anime l’Eva&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;gelio e l’sangue del che inte&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;sam&lt;em&gt;en&lt;/em&gt;te assicurato mi sento con particolar consolazione e certa spera&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za d’havere a ottenere la grazia da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;nella presente occasione della venuta del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Procuratore&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;d’Etiopia, a cui mi sono offerto, e con esso conosco esser volontà di Dio, che vada se&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;z’altra dilazione, sotto pretesto della quale non mi lascierò mai indurre a desistere dall’insta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za, che mi sento in obligo di fare per corrispondere alla divina vocazione, vedendo chiaramente, che col differire correria pericolo manifesto di ma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;care à Dio, non senza gra&lt;em&gt;n &lt;/em&gt;rimprovero nel di del giudizio; oltre che sono ta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to inna&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;zi nell’età, è nelli studij, che ogni dimora mi par no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; possa essermi se no molto nociva. In somma il mio principal motivo che val per mille, si è l’adempiere la volontà di Dio, della quale come io non ho mai dubitato in ta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to tempo, mi persuado parimenti che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; non sia per haverne alcu&lt;em&gt;n &lt;/em&gt;dubbio; è p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt;cio ad essa posponendo ogni altra cosa, che potesse essere in contrario, m’habbia à co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;cedere la tanto bramata, e tanto spesso doma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;data licenza, è che adesso di nuovo doma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;do coll’ultimo sforzo dell’affetto, ed insta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za maggiore di tutte le passate, affinche pienam&lt;em&gt;en&lt;/em&gt;te assicurato del voler di Dio possa con ogni co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;fida&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za nel suo aiuto mettermi ad una impresa si ardua, è si improporzionata alla debolezza &amp;amp; inhabilità mia, quale è di cooperare alla salute di ta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;te Anime rico&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;prate col pretioso sa&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;gue del n&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ro Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re Gesù &lt;em&gt;Cristo&lt;/em&gt;. No&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; aggiu&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;go piu, perche stimo che&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;tanto basti per muovere V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; à cooperare alla grazia singolaris&lt;em&gt;sim&lt;/em&gt;a, che Dio mi fa, col mandarmi, dove lui mi chiama, promettendo io colla grazia sua di non tornar mai indietro, ma caminar sempre inna&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;zi fino alla morte, e morte di Croce, al che per fine prego V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ad aiutarmi coi suoi S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; Sacrifici, &amp;amp; orationi a quali di tutto cuore mi raccomando.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non posso non manifestare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;di quanto si è dilargata la brama cocente che m'incide il cuore, per adoperarmi alla salute delle anime infedeli, per la M&lt;em&gt;aggior &lt;/em&gt;G&lt;em&gt;loria&lt;/em&gt; di Dio, altra volta manifestata a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;; e più focosi ne sperimento gli effetti, perché altri, anzicché me spedisconsi a quelle, per me, felici contrade. Son dessi più meritevoli di me, nol niego, nè perciò arrestar mi debba la poca voglia che mi adorna. Imperocché, fù volontà del N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;Padre, che tutti i figli suoi si hanno a distinguere nella nobilissima fiamma, che nei petti loro si chiude, per la salute delle anime, come ben si espresse in quel &lt;em&gt;Ite, accendite, inflammate omnia&lt;/em&gt;. La bontà e potenza di n&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ro Signore, che può suscitare da' sassi i figliuoli di Abramo, mi apprestan coraggio e lena a ciò seguire, e potentemente mi rincuorano a chiedere a calde istanze la spedizione per le missioni straniere. Non sono da tanto è certo, ma per apostoli Cristo servissi di umili peccatori. Sono Fr&lt;em&gt;atello &lt;/em&gt;Coadjutore, e non importa, potrò in quelle genti oprare e col buono esempio, e colle esortazioni, e coll'imprimere nelle pargole menti i rudimenti primi di n&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra S&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Religione, per quanto potrò colla Divina grazia. V&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; adunque, colla guida sicura dello Spirito di Dio, potrà risolvere quello, che più ridonda alla M&lt;em&gt;aggior &lt;/em&gt;G&lt;em&gt;loria&lt;/em&gt; di Dio, e consolazione del mio spirito, che se a consolar mie voglie si compiace V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, di certo sarà grazia singolarissima che riceverò come da Dio; ed egli mi somministrerà lena e coraggio a poter sostenere con perfezione cotanto ardua impresa, ed esclamare con l'apostolo Paolo «&lt;em&gt;Omnia possum in eo, qui me confortat&lt;/em&gt;». E più sicura e certa riuscirammi una tal speranza, se V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; si rammenta ne' suoi S&lt;em&gt;antissimi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; di colui, che rispettoso si dichiara&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; Rev&lt;em&gt;erendissi&lt;/em&gt;ma&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono già ben quattro anni, quando per la prima volta ottenni l'ingresso nella Compagnia, che la brama di giovane alla salute delle anime infedeli, nel mio cuore si dilatava. Successa, per altri fini del Signore, la dimissione mia dalla stessa, altro dolore non mi sovrastava l'animo, che la quasi smarrita speranza, a versare il sangue per la fede cattolica. Quindi, per la Dio mercé, qui ammesso un'altra volta a convivere con i figli d'Ignazio, ed ecco risorto con impeto maggiore l'ardore di apostolico zelo. Non posso, è vero, farla da propagator del Vangelo, come per la prima volta mi avea proposto; ma ad apprestar servigio a' Padri in missione grandemente aspiro. Or ponderate bene le cose in forma meditativa, chiedo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; una missione nella Grecia, e se non questa, un'altra a suo talento.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi auguro, mercé l'esistenza di Maria Vergine, che la vera carità paterna, voglia appagare le divote brame di un figlio, che umile chiedendo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la santa benedizione, si sottoscrive&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dopo il corso di dieci mesi, ritorno a baciare umilmente le mani a Vostra Paternità colla presente, e ad offerirle caldamente le consuete preghiere, vertenti a quella vocazione alla quale fui chiamato dallo Spirito del Signore. Io non dubito, o Padre mio molto Reverendo che fino a tanto che non giunga a raccordarle di presenza questo affare, secondo me il primo fra i primi, non giungerò affatto a ricevere, e ad eseguire il dolce e desiderato invito di Vostra Paternità a partir tosto per le straniere missioni, a sovvenimento dei bisogni necessari di quei buoni Padri, che in terre sconosciute menano e sudori, e vita per la gloria di Dio e per la salute dei prossimi; e ad impiegarmi non meno per la cultura spirituale di moltissimi fanciulletti, per la quale han da impiegare non poco tempo coloro, che per la predicazione, e amministrazione dei sacramenti son destinati. Avrei senza dubbio porte a questo Padre Provinciale caldissime suppliche ad inviarmi costì in compagnia del Padre Procuradore da spedirsi dalla prossima Congregazione, se ciò non sarebbe a giudicarsi da Vostra Paternità padre mio in Gesù Cristo. Quindi a lei mi rivolgo con quella fiducia e confidenza che corre tra padre e figliuolo, onde si benigna accordarmi una tale licenza. Premetterò adunque in questi giorni ad onore del glorioso mio protettore San Francesco Saverio una novena, fervorosa per quanto comporta la mia tiepidezza, ed un triduo la chiuderà, in ossequio al Cuore purissimo di Maria, ottima nostra madre; affinché si piacciano benedire i miei desideri, ed a Vostra Paternità suggerire quella risoluzione, che crederanno maggiore alla gloria di Dio, ed a consolazione non meno dell’anima mia. La prego intanto di comunicarmi il suo venerato avviso per mezzo del Padre Ryllo, il quale, tutto buono com’è avrà la bontà a rendermelo conto; se pure Vostra Paternità giudica di ordinare direttamente a questo Padre Provinciale che mi facci partire, come sopra ho già manifestato.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Padre mio, mi raccomandi al Signore con calde istanze, acciocché usi misericordia sopra di me peccatore, che pur troppo indegno mi stimo di dichiararmi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di Vostra Paternità Molto Reverenda&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Infimo figlio in Gesù Cristo &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Fratello Sebastiano Maria Serillo S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

E però nel tempo stesso che rinnovo alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; le mie suppliche per le straniere missioni, mi occorre insieme di pregarla che si degni concedermi licenza, che io fossi tolto dalla &lt;/span&gt;Contadoria, attuale mio ufficio, e mi addica invece nell’arte del fabro, e poi fare acquisto di qualche conoscenza di medicina, e di salassatore, come cose necessarie ad un fratello, che menar deve sua vita nelle missioni, e forse tra selvaggi. Manifestandole ancora, giusta il consiglio del nostro P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Grossi, esser necessario non meno la conoscenza di qualche lingua, e tra queste specialmente la francese e l’inglese. Tutte queste cose ho voluto schiettamente qual figlio svelare a &lt;span&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; affinché si piaccia dare quegli ordini, che crederà opportuni a maggior gloria di Dio, ed al bene spirituale e mio, e de’ prossimi.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Possibile che questa mia, comunque siasi lettera, non vaglia a superar di merito tutte le altre, onde riuscire in quella difficile impresa, che non valsero mia le antecedenti? Son sicuro, ed una quasi certa speranza mi parla in cuore, che Vostra Paternità già mi assegnò il destino per le straniere missioni. Ed oh di qual gioia non brilla il mio cuore a si dolce rimembranza! Le mie ossa, caro Padre, non saran sepolte in questa Isola, ma qualche spiaggia d’infedeli contrade darà ricetto allo estinto mio cadavere. Comandi Vostra Paternità la mia partenza, sia pure pe’ confini del mondo, volerò al primo cenno. Ma, a che fare? Inetto per fermo a cotali laboriose fatiche sia per virtù, sia per abilità; ma certo potrei, colla grazia del Signore, versarmi men male in que’ ministeri, in cui tutto giorno si aggirano que’ fortunati miei buoni fratelli; che se a tanto non valgo, riuscirò senza fallo di alleggerimento a’ Padri nelle missioni, rendendo loro meno aspri gl’incommodi de’ disastrosi viaggi, caricandomi gli oneri de’ loro fardelli: dunque dirò: “&lt;em&gt;Ecce ego, mitte me&lt;/em&gt;”; spaziosi sentieri apronsi liberi a’ missionari; già Vostra Paternità stà sul punto d’inviarvi soggetti in abbondanza, e conformando le miei alle loro preghiere ripeto: “&lt;em&gt;Ecce ego, mitte me&lt;/em&gt;”, mi spedisca caro Padre, son pronto alla partenza.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Abbi Vostra Paternità compassione dell’anima mia, raccomandandomi al Signore, ed alla Beata Vergine Maria ne’ Suoi Santissimi Sacrifizi, e sinceramente mi creda&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Per avventura è stato proposto a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; di mandarmi nella Specola di America fornita egregiamente di tutto, trattone l’astronomo. Io fui interrogato se ripugnerei al partito che su di me si prendesse di veramente mandarmi; al che risposi che no e che sol temeva di mettermi da me stesso in campo a fare istanze per addossarmi un peso superiore alle mie forze, le quali farebbonsi senz’altro maggiori di se stesse con un cenno dell’ubbidienza che mi dicesse va'. Tuttavia perché il mio silenzio non sia di veruno impedimento a ciò che vorrebbe fare la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; quantunque io mi protesti di esser pienamente contento sì per restare dove sono, come per andare: dico che io riceverei con indicibile giubilo la novella di essere uno degli eletti alla spedizione. E ve ne ha parmi, buona ragione. Imperciocché quel frutto che a noi altri operaj fisici e matematici è commesso, più che altrove nelle ragioni colte ed usate alle scienze è da sperarsi; quindi potrebbesi dir perduto se la specola che è senza astronomo fosse in mezzo a gente selvaggia ed ignorante, ma non essendo così quello che si perde o si diminuisce da una parte si acquista dall’altra, sebbene a dir vero di qua, se non si raddoppia il vantaggio, certamente non si perde nulla, ed ecco come. È cosa certa che non potremmo intraprendere nissun lavoro nel nuovo osservatorio senza la corrispondenza con quei d’Europa e massime con questo Romano che sarebbe ad ogni altro preferito. Or tal corrispondenza quanto più rara tanto riuscirebbe più gradita e molto più ricercata che non tante altre produzioni o già comuni o poco men che comuni a tutti. Ma qui viene a mancare un operaio? Se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; si risolvesse a mandarmi le suggerirei, se mi è lecito dir così, una maniera di rimpiazzarlo. Intanto io ripeto alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; che non per altro che per palesarle le mie disposizioni mi sono risoluto di scriverle queste righe, ben di cuore contento di quello che il Signore vorrà disporre di me in questa Sua vigna nella quale accolto da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; or anche mi si offre occasione gliene&lt;sup&gt;(a) &lt;/sup&gt;rendo infinite grazie e la preso insieme a volermi colle sue orazioni ajutare perché io vi preservi fino all’ultimo dei miei giorni. Di più quello che io le ho scritto, se così piace a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, sia a sola sua notizia per potersene valere come meglio le piacerà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Intanto io le domando la sua benedizione e mi confermo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Suo Dev&lt;em&gt;oto&lt;/em&gt; ed Obb&lt;em&gt;edientissi&lt;/em&gt;mo Figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Sarei venuto di persona da V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;a parlarle; ma l'ultima volta che venni Ella mi ammonì che per simiglianti cose a non farle perder tempo bastava scriverle una letterina. Persuaso dalle ragioni di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;e dalla cosa stessa, che fino al compimento della mia Teologia non poteva aspettarmi la grazia lungamente richiesta di andare alle Missioni, almeno cerco con la divina grazia di prepararmi ad esse; il perchè avendo inteso essersi oramai aperta la Missione della Cina, e che V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;vuole per essa servirsi ancora de' soggetti della Provincia Napoletana, sono entrato in grande speranza, che un giorno il Signore ad onta de' miei demeriti voglia assegnarmi questo campo a coltivare con gli altri miei fratelli; e siccome per questo istesso fine in Napoli avea già cominciato ad attendere allo studio della lingua Cinese, che poi pel mio magistero dovei interrompere, così ora mi è nato desiderio di riprenderlo, la qual cosa non mi pare difficile ad effettuarsi potendo andare, qualora il creda V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, qualche volta alla settimana in Propaganda, o in altro modo ch'Ella giudicherà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Confesso ingenuamente a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;che mi sbigottisce non poco &lt;em&gt;secundum hominem&lt;/em&gt; l'arduità di quella lingua, ed il pensiero della sua inutilità per qualunque altra parte del mondo, qualora Iddio benedetto per mezzo di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;non si compiacesse farmi grazia della Missione Cinese; ma con tutto ciò se questo studio mi deve in qualche maniera, quantunque remota, esser causa di facilitarmi l'adempimento de' miei desiderî io sono prontissimo, e desideroso di abbracciarlo sol che V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;si degni manifestarmi su questo particolare la sua volontà, alla quale io umilmente tutto mi sottometto.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dopo la S&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Comunione, e dopo aver raccomandato molto l’affare al N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anto&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ignazio vengo ad esporle per iscritto un pensiero, che da qualche tempo vo nutrendo; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, alla cui volontà, nella quale riconosco quella di Dio, in tutto mi sottometto, giudicherà se questo pensiero sia da Dio, o sia effetto della mia impazienza indiscrezione, e della vana mia presunzione.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Avendo inteso che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; abbia determinato di fare nel prossimo Ottobre una spedizione di alquanti Nostri per la Cina, il mio desiderio per questa Missione, che ogni giorno più cresce, mi ha fatto concepire qualche speranza che non potessi io altresì essere uno di quei fortunatissimi a ciò trascelti, ed è perciò che genuflesso a’ piedi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; di questa grazia caldissimamente la prego. È vero che agli altri miei demeriti si aggiunge l’aver io ora solamente terminato il secondo anno di Teologia, ed il non essere per anco Sacerdote; ma e non potrei in quel anno o due, nei quali a tutti i Missionar&lt;/span&gt;î &lt;span&gt;è forza rimanere inoperosi nella Cina: onde imparare i costumi, e la difficilissima lingua del paese attendere tutto insieme allo studio della lingua, ed a compiere il mio corso di Teologia, e così trovarmi dopo qualche anno al tempo stesso fornito dell’una, e dell’altra per impiegarmi nel profitto delle anime alla maggior gloria di Dio? e non potrei far ciò comodamente impiegandomi ad aiutare in qualche cosa gli alunni del piccolo Seminario fondato da Monsignor Besi? Io per me lo crederei non difficile; ma quanto è facile che io m'inganni, e che il mio desiderio ed amor proprio mi seduca; ed è perciò che io in tutto mi rimetto a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;. Ed in quanto agli altri innumerevoli miei demeriti? Ah! mio M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; se questo desiderio viene da Dio, se il N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anto&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt;, cui ho raccomandato l’affare, mosso a compassione di me mi ottenga dal Signore questa grazia, saprà ben egli ottenermi altresì tanto di forze da potere, mediante la mia cooperazione, col divino aiuto non esser degenere suo figliuolo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Finisco per non trattenere più V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; occupatissima, le ho esposto il mio pensiero, ed i miei desiderii, tutto ciò che potrei aggiungere forse sarebbe superfluo. Ella ch’è mio Padre, e mio Superiore farà certamente ciò che crederà poter riuscire a maggior gloria di Dio, ed aiuto dell’anima mia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Intanto baciandole umilmente la mano sono &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non prima d'ora ho potuto dar termine alla liquidazione d'alcuni conti con que' di mia famiglia, e quindi introitare la somma di denaro necessaria per fare il viaggio per l'Oregon, dove con lettera de' 7 Marzo corrente anno V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a si benignava destinarmi. Ora sciolto, per mercè di dio, d'ogni altra occupazione sono agli ordini di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a, non attendendo altro che una sua lettera per fare quanto mi prescriverà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Riguardo al compagno chiestomi ne ho parlato più volte al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale Fava, il quale non ha mai datomi risposta definitiva. Però havvi il Padre [Davie] Morea, molto acconcio a siffatto genere di Missioni, che volentieri via si applicherebbe, se piace a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In attenzione di favorevole riscontro, sono in unione de' S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; pieno di stima&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Colgo questa opportuna occasione di due soggetti di questa provincia napoletana che si recano costà, per dirigere a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a le presenti poche righe.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Si rammenterà che fin dall'anno 1840 presentai nelle proprie mani di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a una supplica, con cui dimandava d'essere destinato a qualche estera missione se a Dio fosse piaciuto. Per parecchi anni consecutivi quasi ogni anno, forse &lt;em&gt;usque ad nauseam&lt;/em&gt;, le dimandava la stessa cosa: ma V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a per giuste cagioni non ha mai creduta dovermi soddisfare. Ora però che corrono così infausti tempi per la nostra Compagnia, e che io mi mojo di noja qui, le rinnovo la medesima supplica.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Se V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a vorrà questa volta annuire a' miei desideri, ho a mia disposizione tanto quanto basti a fare quel qualunque viaggio, cui m'indicherà dover fare. Il mio voto sarebbe andare o fra le teste piatte, o fra altri selvaggi d'America; del resto poi mi rimetto tra le sue mani.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;a tale oggetto m'applico presentemente allo studio della lingua Inglese. In caso di condiscendenza da parte di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternita&lt;/em&gt; non prima della fine della prossima Primavera potrei essere all'ordine di pormi in viaggio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In attenzione di ricevere risposta favorevole o a me diretta o al R&lt;em&gt;everend&lt;/em&gt;o P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Fava, in unione dei S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;acrifici &lt;/em&gt;sono pieno di stima&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à M&lt;em&gt;olt&lt;/em&gt;o R&lt;em&gt;everend&lt;/em&gt;a&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Francesco Siciliani S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; I&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Profitto dell'occasione del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Cambi già Rettore in questo Collegio di S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Giorgio per spedire a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à questa mia lettera, la quale se le fosse mai importuna, compatisca il mio ardentissimo desiderio. Non ho mai perduto la volontà nè la speranza d'ottenere da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la tanto bramata licenza di darmi intieramente alle fatiche Apostoliche nelle parti straniere. Anche ora sono a rinnovarle le istanze anzi con maggior calore, perché m'accorgo d'avanzarmi negli anni, e chè, se ne dovesse passare qualche altro, dovrei deporre ogni pensiero. Sento che vi sieno buone speranze per l'apertura della missione in Giappone: se V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à mi stimasse capace per questa, s'assicuri che non tralascerei fatica per sostenerne, colla grazia di Dio, il peso. Ma non voglio eleggere; lascio tutto nelle mani di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à, che saprebbe ben collocarmi in una delle tante Missioni, se vuole esaudire le mie preghiere. Si degni dunque, Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do Padre, leggere con occhio benigno queste mie rozze linee, e con cuore disposto a concedermi la grazia, di che ne sarò memore per sempre, e non tralascerò mai pregare Iddio benedetto per V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à, affinchè la colmi di tutte le più elette benedizioni.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non ho altro da significare a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à, se non che pregandola ad avermi presente nelle sue orazioni, e a perdonare a questo mio ardimento, mentre in unione de' suoi S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; sono colla più distinta stima&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à M&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;to Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;da&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Colgo l’opportunissima occasione di questo Reverendo Rettore, che si reca costì per la Congregazione Provinciale, per spedire a Vostra Paternità questa mia lettera. A prima vista intenderà bene lo scopo della medesima. Non altro fine mi spinge che il desiderio di far conoscere a Vostra Paternità di conservare nel mio cuore viva la brama d’andare alle missioni estere, che altre volte ho significato, e di ripeterne le istanze. Deh, Molto Reverendo Padre trovi un posto ancora per me, e mi consoli. Mi mandi ove più sarà il suo gradimento, sieno i popoli selvaggi, o idolatri, o barbari. Non ho altro in cuore che patire qualche cosa per amor di Gesù Cristo, e ridurre al suo Cuore amabilissimo qualche anima.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Caso però che Vostra Paternità avesse operarii a tal uopo più acconci di quello che sono io, le propongo un nuovo progetto (scrivo con questa libertà a Vostra Paternità, perché la paterna sua bontà m’invita a far così). Il progetto si è, che m’associi a qualche zelante nostro missionario, il quale sia contento di dare solamente gli Esercizi spiritualio missioni ne’ villaggi, campagne, e ostelli, e in qualche piccola città di poca rinomanza d’Italia, con questa condizione, che ove si fosse chiamato, non si dovesse andare che a piedi pellegrinando, e non si dovesse ammettere altro cibo che grossolano, e tanto quanto fosse necessario al sostentamento delle forze. In una parola rinnovare il metodo de’ santi missionari antichi più celebri della Nostra Compagnia. Imperciocché la spesa di vetture, e il trattamento più dilicato sono ordinariamente la causa, per cui i parrochi presenti piuttosto poveri, si astengono di chiamare i missionari, e coltivare le loro rozze parrocchie.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Iddio benedetto ispiri a Vostra Paternità qualche buona risoluzione, e consoli il mio cuore desiderosissimo di tanto bene. Pronto però a fare in qualunque modo la Santissima volontà di Dio, sono in unione de’ &lt;span&gt;Suoi Santissimi Sacrifizi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Francesco Siciliani S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Perdoni Vostra Paternità se tra le tante occupazioni di maggiore importanza da cui è continuamente occupata, lo distragga per un momento con questa mia. Non avrei mai creduto di ciò fare, se la bontà di Vostra Paternità non m'ispirasse la piena confidenza, ed un incontro favorevole non mi presentasse l'occasione. Primieramente auguro a Vostra Paternità con tutto il cuore in occasione delle prossime feste Natalizie e del principio dell'anno tutte le felicità, che saprà desiderare e per se e per tutta la Compagnia. Pregherò il Santo Bambino che lo esaudisca e pienamente compisca i voti di Vostra Paternità. In secondo luogo sono a rinnovarle la memoria, che continuo ne' desideri altre volte esposti d'andare in qualunque aspra missione straniera, che l'ubbidienza mi vorrà assegnare. Che se per sorte Vostra Paternità si trovasse obbligata a fare interrompere gli studi, o privare la provincia di qualche soggetto di buona riuscita per fornire qualche regione lontana o selvatica, eccomi quà, Padre mio, pronto a togliere Vostra Paternità di pensiero, e sgravare la provincia d'un peso inutile. Mi giova sperare che questa volta il Santo Bambino e san Francesco Xaverio m'esaudiscano.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ho il bene d'annunziare a Vostra Paternità che tanto io quanto tutti di questa comunità stiamo bene in salute, tranne il Padre Mossi che attualmente trovasi a letto per indisposizione sopraggiuntagli. Ai Santissimi Sacrifizi di Vostra Paternità mi raccomando, mentre con profondissima stima mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di Vostra Paternità Molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Il giorno due di questo mese mi presentai all'altare per unirmi più strettamente con Dio per mezzo de' S&lt;em&gt;antissim&lt;/em&gt;i Voti che feci in questa pubblica Chiesa. Ne ringrazio il buon dio di tanta misericordia che mi ha usato, mentre mi ha dato vita e forza all'animo da festeggiare giorno per me sì solenne. Ringrazio altresì Vostra Paternità, che, chiudendo gli occhi su' i miei errori e poco profitto nella perfezione, ed aprendo le viscere di sua carità, si è nondimeno degnata di concedermi questa grazia. Iddio la rimuneri in Cielo di questa carità che ha a me fatta, e l'assicuro che non mancherò mai di pregare Iddio per Vostra Paternità, e pel bene della Compagnia.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Confesso di non avere più altro da desiderare sù questa terra. Nondimeno il mio cuore non è intieramente soddisfatto. Rimane un'altra cosa per contentarlo. Se Vostra Paternità guardasse con occhio benigno la supplica che le presentai il giorno 9 di Settembre dell'anno 1840, e mi facesse sentire un I, che m'indicasse la partenza o per i selvaggi, o per qualunque altra regione aspra e faticosa, confesso che morrei di contentezza. Deh! M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo &lt;/em&gt;Padre per amor del Cielo e di tante anime che non hanno chi spezzi loro il pane, schiuda quel labro, mi mandi e finisca di consolarmi. La mia sanità che tempo innanzi sembrava sconcertata, ora si è rinforzata, di che ne fanno prova le fatiche che ora sostengo a benefizio de' prossimi nel confessionale, per quanto me lo permettono le occupazioni del mio uffizio. Potrebbe opporsi la mia inabilità è vero. Ma l'insegnare un po' del catechismo del Ven&lt;em&gt;erabile&lt;/em&gt; Cardinale Bellarmino, il suggerire qualche sentimento cristiano confido in Dio di sapermi dissimpegnare. Non lascerò in questi giorni di pregare Iddio, acciocchè l'illumini a disporre di me quello che sarà di maggior sua gloria e bene dell'anima mia, ed anche perchè m'esaudisca. Ai S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifizi&lt;/em&gt; di Vostra Paternità mi raccomando, mentre con profondissima stima mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di Vostra Paternità Molto River&lt;em&gt;enda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in &lt;em&gt;Chris&lt;/em&gt;to Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Scol&lt;em&gt;astico&lt;/em&gt; Franc&lt;em&gt;esco &lt;/em&gt;Siciliano.~&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Riverendo in &lt;em&gt;Cris&lt;/em&gt;to Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Io Francesco Siciliano scolastico della Compagnia di Gesù umilmente espongo a Vostra Paternità quanto siegue. Fin dal bel principio del mio Noviziato concepii per divina misericordia ardenti desideri alle straniere missioni: ma tenendo esser quelli primi fervori da Novizzo, non stimai dichiararli, se non vi avessi premesso più mature riflessioni. Con questi desideri sempre fissi in cuore passai tutto il tempo del Noviziato, quello dello studentato di Filosofia, e finalmente quello del magistero.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Negli esercizj spirituali del mese di Ottobre 1839 ebbi impulsi più forti al cuore, che s’accrebbero allora quando furono destinati per l’America i due novelli missionarj già mossi a quella volta. In tale circostanza aprii il cuore al R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;[Leziroli] mio padre spirituale, il quale mi consigliò di non communicarli a Vostra Paternità, se non ne’ dì festivi di Pentecoste, e che frattanto mi raccomandassi più fervorosamente al Signore, e riflettessi nelle cotidiane meditazioni su i patimenti e travagli da sofferirsi, e su tutto ciò che possa spettare alle fatiche e pericoli, che recano seco siffatte missioni. Ho praticato, sebbene fredda=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;mente, quanto mi venne consigliato. E a quello che a’ patimenti s’appartiene, mi sentiva confortato da quel riflesso: &lt;em&gt;Omnia possum in eo qui me confortat&lt;/em&gt;: ed ancora da un altro, che avendo io moltissimi e gravissimi debiti da soddisfare alla divina giustizia, più assai ch’ogni altro, sarebbe questa una circostanza opportuna da scemarne alcuna parte, quando che Iddio benedetto si degnasse concedermi grazia così straordinaria. Nella novena di Pentecoste, che rivolsi a questo fine, ho conservato sempre i medesimi desideri. Per la qual cosa il R&lt;em&gt;everendo &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Spirituale mi permise d’avanzare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;Paternità la presente supplica. Posto ciò prego ed umilmente scongiuro Vostra Paternità ad accogliere colla solita sua benignità questa mia dimanda, e a volermi destinare per qualunque missione straniera, che Vostra Paternità stimerà più acconcia alle mie forze, sebbene il mio desiderio sia di volare ove vi fosse più da patire, e provare in più buona [dosa] la croce di Gesù Cristo. Ah, Molto Riverendo Padre, non finirei mai colle ginocchia piegate al suolo, e colle lagrime agli occhi di scongiurarla per amor del Signor nostro Gesù Cristo, e della&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Beatis&lt;em&gt;si&lt;/em&gt;ma Vergine Maria a voler contentare quanto prima questi miei ardenti desideri; stimandomi ancora pienamente soddisfatto, se m’inviasse per un vil servo de’ nostri fratelli Missionarj. Del resto mi sottopongo ben volentieri a quanto Iddio disporrà di me per lo mezzo di Vostra Paternità. Voglia Iddio concedere a me questa grazia, e alla Paternità Vostra ogni felicita, mentre umilissimamente e con tutto il rispetto le bacio la mano.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Mon très Révérend Père&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Peut-être souviendra-t-il à votre Patrnité que j'ai sollicité, il y a quelques années, à deux différents repris, les missions étrangers.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Si j'ai depuis gardé le silence, c'est moins pour avoir perdu mon premier désir, que pour m'être vu trop éloigné encore du terme où je devois arriver, avant d'obtenir qu'il se réalisait.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sacerdoce, je crois l'occasion très favorable pour faire, aupré, de Votre Paternité, une nouvelle instance que j'espère être lq dernière.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;ce qui ne sera pas aussi facile plus tarde, quand mes Supérieurs locaux auront pou[...] à mon placement.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Indifférent pour quelque pays du monde que le puisse être, et prêt à partir où il Lui plaira de m'envoyer, je crois néanmoins devoir déclarer à Votre-Paternité que j'inclinerais fort pour la Nouvelle Granade.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ce n'est peut être pas sans un dessein particulièr de la divine providence à mon égard, que les lettres, si consolantes, envoyées de [...] parays pour les Missionaires qui viennent d'en prendre possession, nous soient parvenus dans la circostances où je me trouve.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Elles m'ont vivement [...], et je dois avance que c'est particulièrement leur lecture qui m'a determine à la demarche que j'exécute présentement.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Là, selon le vue du Révérend Père Supérieur de la Mission, je pourrais enseigner le français, l'italien, et peut être ainsi la botanique et la géologie, don't j'ai appris les éléments généraux, dans le temps.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Au bout d'un année, je compte même sarois assez d'espagnol pour occupier une chaire de Grammaire.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mais ce qui me plairoit par [...] tout, ce seroit d'aller à la recherché des tribus sauvages qui errant dans les contrées méridionals de la Colombie, et pourqui le flambeau de la Foi, non plus que celui de la civilization, ne suit point encore.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;c'est que depuis fort long-temps je soffre d'une contraction habituelle de nerfs, qui ne peut que s'accomoder d'un climat aussi constamment chaud, que celui de cette partie de l'Amérique.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Pour la même raison, je me répugnerai pas d'aller à Calcuta, ou au Maduré.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Du reste, je ne suis point faible, et je puis, avec l'aide de Dieu, supporter les privations et les fatiques, aux quelles se condamne un missionaire.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Je ne prolongerai pas advantage cette lettre, peut- être dèjà excusire.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;C'est avec la soumission la plus humble et la plus entire que je remets mon sort entre les mains de Votre Paternité, la priant de m'accorder sa sanite benediction, et d'agréer le très sincère et très affectuex témoignage de profound respect, avec lequel je suis, mon très Révérend Père,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;De Votre Paternité,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Le très humble et tout dévoné serviteur en J.C.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;A. Simond Sc. S.J.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non perché io Fratello Nicola Simoni sia novizio da ventitre mesi, abbiasi attribuire la mia domanda a quel solito fervore che fra i Nostri si suol dire è fervore da Novizio, ma solamente domando perché entrai in Compagnia con zelo per la salute dell'anime; ed avendo fatto orazione veramente a questo mi sento inchlinato: ma siccome sono un povero fratello e non potendoli aiutare altrimenti che essere cooperatore aiutando i Missionari, di questo appunto io domando, e spero che la carità della Paternità Vostra Molta Reverenda disponga di me quando gli piace, e per dovunque vuole onde possa coadiuvare i Missionari in questo grande officio apostolico.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io ho anni 28., ed per grazia di Dio godo perfetta salute: ho fatto il militare per anni 8. e perciò può figurarsi in che mar tempestoso di procelle spesse volte mi son trovato andando fra monti, per valli, e folti boschi per far preta di que' masnatieri che perturbavano la tra&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;quillita del pubblico, e più volte mettendomi a rischio della propria vita; e perché? per un [qualchè insega], o pure per un elogio che presto, o tardi se ne andava come il fumo al vento. Se a tanti pericoli ho esposto adunque la sanità, e la vita per servire un Rè terreno, oh quanto desidero ora patire qualche cosa per Gesù vero Rè che da premi eterni.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Riguardo po' a servizi domestici onde aiutare i Padri Missionari, e quanti fossero non dubiti giacchè m sento animo nell'aiuto che spero in Dio di soddisfare a molti nè per caso alcuno trovo difficoltà avendo bene considerato tutti gl'incontri che possono avvenire nella vita apostolica. Mi sento con gran desiderio chiamato a questo, e non già per gli [animatori Messa], ma solamente di servire il Signore dove si trova maggior frutto dell'anime. Spero perciò M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che voglia accogliere secondo la sua carità la domanda di un suo infimo figlio che spinto di tal desiderio per la maggior gloria di Dio a tanto mi espongo, promettendo la mia servitù fedele sino all'ultimo fiato.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La prego a ricordarsi di me ne' S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Di questo io non dubbito, cioè nel partire da Napoli il quareesimalista P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Alessandri gli diete una mia lettera affinchè l'avesse data a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;, e Lui mi promise di adempiere a questo favore; perciò io sono quasi sicuro della carità di quel buon Padre, di non solo avergli data la mia inviatagli, ma di averla accompagnata con qualche buona parola a pro mio, mentre gli significava la ardente desiderio che ho per le Missioni, offerendomi a qualunque invito, e per qualunque parte del mondo l'opera mia fosse per maggior onore, e servizio di Dio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Or io non sò, se la sopradetta offerta è stata accettata dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; mentre non ho ricevuta nessuna risposta; e questo è il motivo che mi spinge per la seconda volta a domandargli le Missioni per qualunque luogo, sperando che voglia agradire questo mio desiderio, e lo voglia mettere in esequzione per la maggior gloria di Dio. La prego a ricordarsi di me ne' S&lt;em&gt;uoi&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Comincio à risperare l’adempimento de miei antichi desiderij già mai diminuiti, ma adesso più che mai accesi, ed infocati dalle nuove, che da costà vengono della già aperta porta à quei, che desideravano impiegarsi nella missioni dell’Indie, per cagione della dichiaratione fatta dalla Maestà Catolica sopra l’editt&lt;em&gt;o&lt;/em&gt; fatto per l’Italiani, acciò n&lt;em&gt;on&lt;/em&gt; passassero all’Indie, che non era sua volontà il negare il passaggio à Padri, mà solo à seculari. Ed anco per la tregua fatta da Portughesi, come scrivono, co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; Giapponesi, contro l’Olandesi, conche vien aperta a nuova la porta della missione del Giappone. Ed ò fossi io uno di quei fortunati, che s’impiegheranno in raccogliere messe tanto copiosa, ò coltivare campo si ampio, ed inaffiarlo col proprio sangue! Felice me se arriverò à questi giorni! E spero con l’intercessione del S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;to Ap&lt;em&gt;osto&lt;/em&gt;lo dell’Indie, e del P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;Marcello, e con l’orationi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; arrivarci, n&lt;em&gt;on&lt;/em&gt; conoscendo cosa che possa impedire l’adempimento di si pij desiderij, che i miei peccati, i q&lt;em&gt;ua&lt;/em&gt;li annegati nel Sangue pretiosissimo di Chr&lt;em&gt;ist&lt;/em&gt;o Nostro bene, più tosto faciliteranno il negotio, chè ‘l difficulteranno.

&lt;p&gt;Reve&lt;em&gt;ren&lt;/em&gt;do Padre nostro Generale&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La Somma grazia, del Signore sempre La visiti, e la conserva, come io tanto lo desidero, e spero, che tra noi sia: Quantunque il più miserabile tra i sudditi, di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; oso non dimeno di prostrarmi ai dilei piedi, con questo mio foglio; non ha suplicarla, nemeno ha pregarla; ma bensi ha notificarle per la seconda volta lo Spirito mio in cui contrasta, ed è sicome, intesi da altre volte, che vostra Paternità, desidera che brevi siano i dilei sudditi in scriverle; eccomi per quanto posso lo faccio in breve parole. Sin'ora non, è mai estinto in me, quella volontà, di andare alle missioni; ma anzi mi sembra esserne cresciuta; non so poi qual mottivo mi spinge; Se non a me buono.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Lascio a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; di giudicare nel Signore, qual più conoscerà per bene dell'anima mia, ed utile alla Compagnia; In oltre la prego ha prendere, in quella considerazione, ciò, che io, mi son preso la libertà di notificarle per la Seconda volta coll'occasione del Padre Rado; di essere cuore alle Sante Sue orazioni la prego di raccomandarmi mentre mi dico infimo servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Reverendo in Christo Padre Nostro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Sono con questo foglio, ai piedi di Vostra Paternità Molto Reverenda per suplicarla, d’esaudire questo mio desiderio, che da molto tempo si è fatto, ed ancora caldamente si fa sentire al mio cuore, e perciò spero, che venga da Dio Signor nostro come pure seguita ha mantenermelo. Mi perdonerà poi l’innata sua carità se alquanto mi stendo nello scrivere la ragione si e perchè bramo, che sappia il principio di questa mia buona intenzione. Potrei quasi dire essere stata questa mia volontà, per sino dagli anni più teneri; ed infatti in tutto il tempo, che ho vissuto nel secolo, mai poteva allontanarla, e quantunque mi vedeva privo affatto di quei mezzi necessarii ad un tal fine, mai cessò di farsi sentire; Confidato dunque nella misericordia, e bontà di nostro Signore io andava dicendo; Signore se questa, e vostra volontà, datemi grazia per eseguirla: Signore, io non posso stando secolare far questo, ed in Religione non posso entrare senza del vostro ajuto, dunque a Voi mi abbandono, fate di me ciò che vi piace, ben sapete la miseria mia quanto è grande, e a voi sta il provedermi, di tutto ciò che è necessario, ad una si grande impresa. Dopo un continuo desiderio di farmi Religioso in qualunque Ordine, mai ho potutto entrare; prima i parenti nol conzentivano, di poi pel servizio Militare, che dovetti intraprendere m’allontanavano d’ottener ciò, che continuamente desiderava. Fuori quasi di speranza d’ottener questo fine, mi rivolsi alla gran Madre di Dio, suplicandola cosi. Ho Vergine Santissima, se non è volontà del Signore che ciò ottenga, fatte, che di tutto mi dimentichi, ed a nulla di questo, più io pensi; e se tanto io otterò prometto di farne parte ai Superiori dell’Ordine in cui avrò la sorte d’entrar Religioso: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ecco, che Maria S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;ma esaudì le mie preghiere, ed in pochi mesi mi aprì la strada, tutto ottenni, ed entrai in Religione ad intraprendere l’esperimento. Dopo alcuni mesi del mio noviziato questa mia volontà s’acrebbe di più, e cosi continuò ad aumentarsi; non mi mancavano intanto dei dubbi, circa la perseveranza, perchè una tristezza continua, mi dava ha dubitare d’ottener, ciò che da si gran tempo sospirato aveva; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Trovandomi un giorno non poco agitato da varii opposti pensieri per riguardo ad una tal vocazione, temendo quasi che mi venisse nagatta la permissione di fare i santi voti&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;//&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;e sempre col pensier su di questo; vinto d’un certo fuoco e prostratomi con piena fiducia, ed umiltà d’avanti al Crocifisso, ed alla Vergine Addolorata promisi, che se otteneva una tal grazia di fare i santi voti, avrei fatto noto&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt; alla Vostra Paternità codesta mia voccazione alle missioni straniere; Cessati furono tutti i dubbii, ed i timori, e contro ogni mio merito, il misericordioso Iddio mi concesse la sospiratissima grazia, e più che mai il pensier mio è fermo per far, ciò che del conto mio s’appartiene, mediante sempre la grazia del Signore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dunque mi fo animo ha chiedere alla V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aterni&lt;/em&gt;tà, e mi rimetto intieramente nelle paterne sue mani, se nel Signore giudicherà essere bene per la salute dell’anima mia, di mandarmi cioé alle missioni. Il tutto intendendo conforme alle costituzioni, e Regole della minima nostra Compagnia: Non mi occorrendo altro, prego La V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aterni&lt;/em&gt;tà a perdonarmi il tanto disturbo, e a prendere in quella considerazione tutto quanto mi sono ardito di manifestarle con tutto l’affetto il più sincero del mio animo. Mi raccomando caldamente alle sante sue preghiere, e pieno del più profondo rispetto e colla più distinta venerazione passo a protestarmi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di Vostra Paternità M&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;to Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;da&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Io non posso udire notizia di alcuna delle nostre missioni, che subito non mi si desti il desiderio di parteciparvi in alcun modo, e subito mi venga detto nel mio cuore: ah perché mi è tolto di poter faticare in questa vigna sì laboriosa!.. Non ha guari mi venne fatto d’intendere, come i &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;adri&lt;/em&gt; Melia ed Altieri disponevansi per passare in Corsica, e mi sovvenne come la Paternità Vostra &lt;span&gt;M&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ol&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;to Rev&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;da&lt;/span&gt; in certo modo me la propone in un con Algeri come scopo a cui poteva drizzare i miei desiderii; in occasione, che degnavasi visitare i &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;adri&lt;/em&gt; Scolastici all’epoca della estiva rinnovazione de’ voti in cotesto Coll&lt;em&gt;egi&lt;/em&gt;o Romano. Ora sento, che prossimi alla partenza sono i Padri destinati alle missioni della Cina: io non posso più trattenermi dal ripetere le mie suppliche per ottenere la grazia di far parte di una spedizione a cui, per grazia di Dio, come io penso, mi sento particolarmente inclinato.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non creda però la &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;, che io colle mie forse troppo frequenti ed importune istanze voglia quasi forzarla a compiacermi, poiché solo intendo ricordarle la graziosa promessa, ch’Ella pur volle farmi in iscritto, quando ad un’altra mia&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;su’ di simile argomento rispose; ch’io sarei rimasto appagato più presto di quello, ch’io poteva aspettarmi. Che però, mettendo tutta la mia persona in perfetta disposizione dell’obbedienza, che alla Paternità Vostra io professo intieramente, solo mi fu ardito di significarle come, non che estinta non si è neppur raffreddata in me la vocazione delle missioni estere; onde, se il motivo di non mi ci eleggere fosse questo solo di ignorare le mie attuali intenzioni, la &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; con questa mia ne venga accertata.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In fervente aspettazione pertanto di favorevole e sollecito riscontro, baciandole per riverenza la mano io mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della Paternità Vostra Molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Bonif&lt;em&gt;acio&lt;/em&gt; Soragna.~&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Timore di molestia che potessi recare alla Paternità Vostra, di tenacità nel mio giudizio, di insofferenza e, lo dirò pure, timore altresì di aver perduto la vocazione per essermi troppo facilmente accomodato ad una vita, qual'è la presente, più tranquilla e quieta mi hanno lungamente tenuto in forse se conveniva riportarsi o no alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt; le istanze per ottenere le missioni estere. Che se non tutto questo mi si rappresentava al pensiero che al meno inutili erano per riuscire la mia nuova inchiesta; e che quindi sarebbe più stato a seconda del volere di Dio il rimanermene quieto e l'attendere in silenzio quando che fosse il volere di Lui.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Contuttociò ho creduto esser migliore partito il manifestare questi strani movimenti del mio spirito alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; affinchè voglia provvederci con quella paterna cura di cui altre fiate ho esperimentato i consolanti effetti.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Posso dunque sperare ancora di ottenere le missioni orientali e della Cina? posso sperarle tra breve? Sarà egli di mestieri e conveniente ch'io ancora più volte ne rinnovi colle istanze la memoria? Ecco quanto sono ansioso di conoscere, e conoscere non posso se non dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; a cui perciò mi diriggo colla presente affinchè, se Le aggradi o lo giudichi opportuno, io ne ottenga risposta.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io sì conosco di non possedere alcuna di pietà e straordinaria dottrina quasi necessarie condizioni a tanta impresa; ma io mi chiamerei fortunato che se non con altro potermi colla perdita del mio sangue e della mia vita procurare la maggior gloria di Dio Signore Nostro.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Che anzi questo stesso desiderio di spargere tutto il mio sangue per amore di G&lt;em&gt;esù&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt; e della Sua santissima religione fa sì che sembrimi ch'io più presto mi fermerei in Italia nel solo caso, che qui tra breve avesse a scoppiare una qualche crudele persecuzione non dissomigliante a quello che oggidì devasta il regno di Spagna.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ma già credo avere esposto più che a sufficienza quali siano i miei sentimenti e i miei desiderii alla Paternità Vostra Molto Reverenda; quindi più non aggiungo fuorchè il pregarla ad avermi per iscusato, e presente ne' S&lt;em&gt;uoi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; in unione de' quali mi dichiaro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della Paternità Sua Molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Bonif&lt;em&gt;aci&lt;/em&gt;o Soragna S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax &lt;/em&gt;C&lt;em&gt;hrist&lt;/em&gt;i&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Nel replicare che fo le istanze per ottenere di far parte delle missioni estere particolarmente di quelle della Cina, o dell’Indie orientali; mi fo ardito di manifestare un pensiero, che non cessa di portare una qualche agitazione al mio spirito, affinché la Paternità Vostra, che sola lo può, possa calmarla con quella benignità, ch’Ella sempre mostra verso i Suoi figli in &lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;to&lt;/span&gt;, chè tale io mi pregio di essere come individuo, sebbene il più indegno della Compagnia.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Vò rivolgendo dunque nel pensiero, che la &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; non voglia concedermi le missioni richieste con tante istanze, perché non abbia potuto scorgere in me certa gagliardia di animo mostrata, direi così, con clamorose operazioni, perché io non faccia pompa (permetta che io così mi esprima) di una certa franca disinvoltura, perché io non mi mostri superiore a certi riguardi... Oh perché mai non mi è concesso di esprimermi in miglior modo! E intanto per non urtare il mio debole spirito per non farmi cadere di animo nell’esercizio de’ ministerii affidati non voglia manifestarmi assolutamente la Sua determinazione di non inviarmi là dove mi pare di sentirmi chiamato.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ma io non posso poi non sentire interiormente un qualche rammarico al&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;vedere come alcuni de’ nostri alla prima loro richiesta furono esauditi; e come io non che questo ottenga neppure vengo esercitato in impieghi che valgano a farmi concepire qualche fondata speranza, e che, dirò così, servano ad instradarmi e facilitarmi l’adito alle suddette missioni.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Il volere in certo modo investigare le intenzioni de’ Superiori, il mostrarsi poco indifferente.. è colpa non lo nego, lo confesso, anzi ne domando perdono a Dio ed alla Paternità &lt;span&gt;V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; e mi sottometto alla penitenza, che Le piacerà di impormi. Spero però, che la &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; non vorrà reputare a colpa averle aperto l’animo mio, mentre per quella paterna cura ch’Ella ha di tutti anche i più abbietti sudditi suoi potrà meglio’ giovarsene per consolarmi in quel modo che Le parrà in &lt;u&gt;D&lt;em&gt;omi&lt;/em&gt;no&lt;/u&gt; più espediente; assicurandola intanto, che qualunque Sua parola la considero veramente come parola di Dio, che per Suo mezzo mi parli; e che a qualunque determinazione procurerò colla grazia di Dio di farmi indifferente per secondare e cooperare allo spirito di mia vocazione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Se non posso poi troppo ardire, io vorrei pregarla altresì di farmi avere il desiderato riscontro prima della visita a questo Collegio del &lt;span&gt;R&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale, rimettendomi però anche in questo alla Paternità Vostra, se, cioè, crederà che abbia da servirmi in quel tempo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi raccomando quanto so e posso ai &lt;span&gt;S&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; S&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; S&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; mentre io non cesserò di dichiararmi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della Paternità Vostra Molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in &lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; S&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ervo&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in &lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt;to&lt;/span&gt; Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax &lt;/em&gt;C&lt;em&gt;hris&lt;/em&gt;ti&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ad onta, che ogni giorno più vada aprendo gli occhii per iscorgere la mia insufficienza a coprire qualunque ministero della Compagnia per la mia ignoranza, per la mia poca attitudine a qualunque siasi governo e più per la mia nulla virtù religiosa; pure non so resistere agli stimoli continui ch’io sento, per richiedere alla Paternità Vostra la grazia di destinarmi alle missioni estere, e in particolar modo a quelle delle Indie Orientali e del Giappone. Io tutto confido in quel Dio, che conserva questo desiderio nel mio cuore, che vorrà accrescere all’uopo e darmi nuove forze per degnamente impiegarmi in questo servizio di tanta gloria del Suo Santissimo Nome.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La &lt;span&gt;P&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; V&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; ebbe la bontà altre volte di mostrare di aggradire questi miei desiderii, di non lasciarmi affatto privo di speranze di secondarli, anzi degnò incoraggiarmi a farglieli presenti di quando in quando. Se io ho affrettato il tempo di un anno, che mi era stato prefisso, lo ascriva pure alla mia direi quasi, insaziabile avidità di vederli adempiuti.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;A questo si è aggiunto l’altro impellente motivo, l’avere, cioè,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sicuro, che col farle palesi le mie intenzioni non violento in alcun modo la volontà della Paternità Vostra Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;da, e sicuro per altra parte egualmente, che non vengo per ciò a togliere alla indifferenza, che ho, o devo avere un Religioso della Comp&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a di Gesù per qualunque uffizio o luogo; mi fo ardito di mostrargliele, onde possa la P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;prenderne norma alla maggior gloria di Dio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io mi sento fortemente eccitato a prestare l’opera mia nelle missioni estere, e non dubito (quando al Superiore piaccia accordarmela) che sia il Signore, che a quelle mi chiami. Io potrei dire a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;come a quelle mi sentissi spinto prima ancora, che provassi vocazione alla Compagnia, potrei dire come, trovandomi al secolo, e venendomi esibito un posto, che, secondo il pensare del mondo, poteva farmi concepire delle speranze quì in Roma, lo rifiutassi replicatamente, avendo in animo, che se voler di Dio dovevo lasciare la famiglia, e la patria l’avrei fatto solo per entrare nella congregazione di Propaganda Fide, o in qualche altra religiosa società, che dovesse servirmi di mezzo per ottenere quel mio intento: potrei dirle ancora, come mi dolesse l’animo un dì poi ch’io seppi essere passato di Parma un Missionario Americano che andava in traccia di soggetti per condurli seco a quell’apostolato.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Quanto poi questa vocazione siasi mai sempre accresciuto dacchè ho la fortuna di appartenere in qualche modo sebbene indegnamente alla Compagnia non è chi il dica; e ne&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;era eccitamento vivissimo l’esempio di coloro, ch’io vedeva ritirarsi in questa Casa del Noviziato a fare gli Esercizj Spirit&lt;em&gt;uali&lt;/em&gt; in preparazione al viaggio ed alle fatiche. Ma questi Santi Esercizj, ch’io ebbi il bene di compiere nel mese di maggio ultimo scorso, mese sacro a Maria Vergine S&lt;em&gt;antissim&lt;/em&gt;a questo stessi mi hanno riempiuto di tale ardenza per le suddette estere missioni.... che però non giudicata viziosa da chi diriggeva il mio spirito, a cui la manifestava non che a voce in iscritto. D’essa continua, ed anzi in questa novena di S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco Saverio si fa sentire con istimoli sempre maggiori. ----&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;E’ ben vero, che quel corso di Spirituali Esercizj durò solo lo spazio di otto giorni, e che ancora io non ho fatti quelli che dal tempo, che vi si impiega vengono detti &lt;u&gt;del mese&lt;/u&gt;; ma potrei io credere che in questi volesse il Signore guastare l’edifizio eretto in que’ primi, e non più presto servirsene per rinforzarne, e riconvalidarne la pianta.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;[I] Sono imperfetto nella virtù, anzi imperfettissimo, ma anche per questo, se mal non mi appongo, potrei essere impiegato fuori d’Italia dove affetti pur troppo terreni possono essermi, e lo sono impedimento grandissimo ad incamminarmi al profitto nella propria perfezione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non è però, ch’io voglia sottrarmi con questa domanda al tempo prefisso pel mio noviziato, che se per tutti, per me lo credo della massima necessità&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;ma perché possa la Paternità Vostra far sempre conto nella mia persona, e disporre a tempo per la fine di quello, se però Le piacerà esaudirmi, o non piuttosto crederà meglio nel Signore il contrario.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Al fin quì detto posso aggiungere, che la gioventù in cui mi trovo, e la robustezza delle forze mi fanno sperare di poter conservare la sanità, che il Sommo Iddio mi ha conceduta fin quì, e che io desidero spendere colla sua grazia alla dilatazione del suo nome in quelle regioni dov’egli non per anco è conosci[uto].&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Oh allora sì, che potrò sempre più considerarmi figlio della Comp&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a di Gesù, titolo a [cui] tanto anelo!..&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ora altro non mi avvanza, che pregare la Paternità Vostra a volere accogliere queste mie suppliche, a volerle presentare al trono dall’Onnipotente Iddio, onde da lui per mezzo della P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; ne abbia il desideratissimo riscontro in aspettazione del quale, e sempre ho l’onore di dichiararmi colla più profonda devozione&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della Paternità V&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ra Molto Reverenda&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non fu un passeggiero fervore di noviziato quello che mi spinse a supplicare, anni addietro la Paternità Vostra a volermi destinare per le missioni estere ma bensì, a quanto posso io giudicare, una vera vocazione divina, che mi si fe’ sentire prima ancora di entrare nella Compagnia, e che ben lungi ora di venir meno mi spinge con nuovi e più forti impulsi onde impiegare tutti que’ mezzi, che salva l’ubbidienza da me professata, possono servire all’uopo per ottenerle.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Per questo gettandomi a’ piedi della P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; sono in quest’oggi a supplicarla che voglia concedermi le missioni delle Indie Orientali nell’Asia, poiché chi sa quando mai sia per presentarsi una occasione più facile e più favorevole di quella, che in questi giorni mi si presenta.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La mia gioventù, la mia robustezza, gli studj che già ho compiuti in patria senza quì ripetere altri argomenti, che la Paternità Vostra&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;potrà riscontrare nella mia prima lettera, che Le diressi, (quali mi riserbo, caso che non l’abbia conservata, esporre nuovamente a voce quando Ella mi chiami alla Sua presenza) mi fanno sperare, che vorrà quanto prima esaudirmi; mentre tuttavia sempre ubbidirò non che rassegnato volentieri a quanto potesse essere in grado alla Paternità Vostra di disporre anche altrimenti della mia persona.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono col più profondo rispetto in unione de’ S&lt;em&gt;uoi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;antissimi &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre Nostro Generale S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Jo penso che la troppo lunga dilazione da me premessa di circa 20 mesi senza farle alcun motto per le missioni faccia dubitare Vostra Paternità che io ne abbia perduto il desiderio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;primo perché Gente di questo taglio non sono necessarie per le missioni che anzi gli riescon di peso. Secondo perché non vi vede alcun capitale di Spirito. Terzo perché non vi scorge alcuna di quelle doti necessarie in chi umanamente parlando dee accingersi a tali imprese al che rispondo che a queste e a quante altre dificoltà di simil fatta potrebbero farlesi innanzi? A me non si convien rispondere se pur non fosse per rammentarle ciò che in simili occasioni solea ripetere il Nostro santo Padre Ignatio cioè che il potere e il volere di Dio non istanno obbligati alle leggi dell'Ordinario.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non dimeno sappia Vostra Paternità che dove io dovessi essere inviato io spererei che la cosa riuscirebbe forse meglio di quello che pare ecc.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Tanto più poi se nell'occasione che il Reverendo Padre provinciale viene in visita in questo Collegio di Ferentino gli dice che nel suo ritorno in Roma mi conduca seco acciò mentre starò quivi aspetando l'ora della mia partenza possa in tanto sempre meglio provedermi per quel che riguarda lo spirito di ciò che insegna l'Apostolo ecc.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Per provedermi nel temporale massime della Carità che permettendolo Vostra Paternità mi sarà il Carissimo in Christo il fratello Antonacci con l'insegnarmi qualche cosa di medicina ecc.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ciò premesso prego di novo Vostra Paternità perché m'invii perché se non sarò buono per raccoglier manipoli sarollo per raccoglier qualche spiga ed oh me beato se mi sarà dato di guadagnare anche una anima sola Padre io capisco che parlando con chi parlo a me non si conviene dire altro. Io aspetto in silenzio e nella speranza.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi dichiaro suo inffimo in Cristo figlio Francesco Sordini S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;Reverendo padre Giovanni Rootaanna&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Preposito generale della Compagnia di Gesù.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ferentino. 1. Settembre. 1842.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Vengo con queste poche rige, a farle memoria per le Sante missioni non gia perche io scorga in me alguna di quelle parti necessarie a quelli che da dio sono chiamati a si bella vocazione che anzi io apunto per non trovare in me nesunissima di quella qualita indispensabili per degniamente accingermi a tale impresa o talvolta sospettato di tal Vocazione e come tale l'ò talvolta manifestata a' Superiori. ma Sicome da una parte questi che tengono il luogo di dio mi an risposto che non solo Non e tentazione ma che anzi suole essere opera di gran gloria di dio è dall'altra parte io sento ogni giorno più cresciere la brama per le missioni percio io qual mi sono Vengo a domandare la grazia di esserci amesso.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Quindi e che io per rendermi idoneo a questa vocazione per quanto e dal canto mio? Caldamente desidererei con tutto il mio cuore di passare qualche tempo in Cotesta casa proffessa del Gesù di roma affinche stando io sotto gli occhi del Nostro Santo Padre jngiazio nei suoi successori e bevendo tra tante al fonte di quella proffessione e santita che risplende in tanti p&lt;em&gt;adri&lt;/em&gt; e f&lt;em&gt;ratelli &lt;/em&gt;che costì servono a dio nostro signiore onde possa in tal modo disvenire in ogni parte idoneo stromento per procurare la M&lt;em&gt;aggior&lt;/em&gt; G&lt;em&gt;loria&lt;/em&gt; di dio adempiendo i doveri della mia Vocazione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Tempo fa il desiderio di Conseguire il martirio era un motivo per cui bramavo le missioni oggi l'unico fine che a cio mi spinge e la brama di dare un sincero e figliale attestato al benedetto Signiore. ha. che il pensier di que tanti che a modo di tanti ciechi precipitano al'inferno ad'onta del Comun padre celeste egli e una spada a due tagli che trafige il Cuor di un figlio amante. pertanto io per me credo che stimolare il cuore di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; con raccomandazioni e pregiere sia piutosto oscurare che raccomandare l'oggetto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;quindi e che io avendo fatto il mio dovere manifestando a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; i miei Sentimenti per le missioni con poce e grette parole spero però molto in quello l'adempimento della di lui Volontà e la mia beatitudine.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;che se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; crede nel Signiore di chiaamarmi a se questo per me sarrà un mezzo e un segnio per qui io speri di conseguire la grazia per le missioni.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;la prego che mi per doni gli errori fatti nello scrivere li quali provengono da due cagioni primo perche non so scrivere secondo perche scrivo togliendo il sonno da gli occhi..&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono di Vostra Paternita inffimo figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Reverendo in Cristo Padre Nostro Generale S&lt;em&gt;ocietatis&lt;/em&gt; J&lt;em&gt;esu&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Scrivo questa seconda lettera in caso che andasse perduta la prima inviatale da me, il primo giorno, di questo mese di marzo.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Padre io penso, che la tanto lunga dilazione di circa 20 mesi da me premessa senza farle durante tutto questo tempo alcun motto per le missioni, faccia credere a Vostra Paternità che io ne abbia perduto il desiderio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Oggi però vengo con questa mia a piedi di Vostra Paternità per domandarle perdono si si lunga dilazione, per assicurarla del mio ardente desiderio per le missioni; e per supplicarla umilmente, di voler consolare questo suo indegno figlio; che tanto desidera di dare questo sincero attestato di figliale affetto, a quel Signore tanto degno d’essere amato.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ma io temo che Vostra Paternità pensa di non inviarmi per questi tre principali motivi; primo perché gente di questo taglio non sono necessarie per le missioni. Giacché gli riescono più tosto di peso, anzi che di utile ecc. Secondo, perché non vede in me alcun capitale di virtù. Terzo finalmente perché non vi scorge niuna di quelle doti, che generalmente parlando si richiedono in chi dee destinarsi per tali imprese ecc. Al che rispondo che a queste, e a quante altre di simil fatta dificolta che potrebbero farle innanzi a me non si convien rispondere, se pur non fosse, per rammentarle ciò, che in simili occasioni solea ripetere il Nostro Santo Padre Ignatio. Cioè che il potere e il volere di Dio non istanno obbligati alle leggi dell’ordinario. Nondimeno sappia Vostra Paternità che dove io dovessi essere inviato ho molto da sperare, che la cosa sarà per riuscire molto meglio di quello che non pare. Tanto più poi se, Vostra Paternità provinciale dice al Reverendo Padre provinciale, nell’occasione che viene in visita in questo Collegio di Ferentino, che nel suo ritorno in Roma mi conduca seco, accioché mentre starò quivi sotto gli occhi di Vostra Paternità possa sempre meglio provedermi per quel che riguarda lo spirito, di ciò, che insegna l’Apostolo ecc. e per ciò che riguarda il temporale m’approfitterò di tutto quel tempo che si premetterà sino all’ora della mia partenza della Carità, che permetendolo Vostra Paternità mi farà il carissimo in Cristo il fratello Antonacci, con l’insegnarmi che farà, qualche cosa di medicina.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Padre mi invii, si m’invii; perché se non sarò buono per raccogliere manipoli lo sarò per raccogliere qualche spiga; ed oh; me beato se mi sarà dato di guadagnare a Dio, anche una anima sola.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Padre io capisco, che parlando con chi parlo a me non si conviene dire altro sù questo punto. Quel che mi rimane di dirle si è, primo, che questi miei desideri non saranno un solo effetto di una buona Volontà solamente.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Secondo, in secondo luogo gli fò sapere che io sto aspettando, in &lt;em&gt;silentio et in spe.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;E con ciò mi dichiaro &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;suo inffimo in Christo Figlio &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Fratel Francesco Sordini &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;della Compagnia di Gesù.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;P.S. Se Vostra Paternità prevede che io non potrò essere subbito esaudito almeno la prego tanto, della Carità di un qualche suo presente; massime di una qualche Copia degli esercizi, in lingua italiana, ma esercizi però secondo il nostro gusto. O pure qualche altra cosa di suo piacere. Il che oltre che mi sarà come una certa caparra per essere inviato alle missioni, sarà innoltre per essermi grato più che un tesoro.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;mi perdoni dell’ardire, sono &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Coad&lt;em&gt;iutore&lt;/em&gt; Franc&lt;em&gt;esco&lt;/em&gt; Sordini~&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do padre Nostro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;sono circa dodici anni da che gesù si degniò accendere nel mio cuore il desiderio di andar alle Missioni, brama peraltro da me sempre respinta, giudicandomi non idoneo per tale impresa. quantunque io per la tenera eta non sapessi che cosa fossero le missioni, particolare era il modo con cui questo desiderio mi sì facea sentire il qual desiderio non ostante dodici anni che son passati dura ancora nel suo primo fervore; questa particolarita l’arguisco da quei Sogni, nei quali mi pare come poi ho capito, che nel modo dei primi apostoli conduceva anime a Cristo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ma avendo ora consultato la cosa con il padre spirituale, e volendo io dal canto mio eseguire la divinta volontà, domando umilmente alla Paternità Vostra la grazia di essere ammsso alle Sante missioni estre di qualunque parte dell mondo esse sieno, purche l’Altissimo sia glorificato da tutto il mondo,&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Rimanendo pienamente sodisfatto di quanto Vostra Paternità come quegli che in luogo di iddio mi governa intorno a cio determinerà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Al presente l’arte mia principale é l’agricoltore, é il cuoco. sono disposto a far di tutto, e ad apprendere anche qualche altra arte senza manchare al proprio uffizio, e con le necessarie licenze; tanto piu se ella alquno me ne suggieriscie affine di facilitarmi questa impresa&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;I fini poi che a cio domandar mi inducono sono molti; come sarrebbe per mettere in effetto la meditazione dell regnio di Cristo e altri simili il tutto conforme alla mia vocazione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non puó credere vostra Paternità quali sieno le Fiamme, che per tal vocazione ardono nel mio petto; tanto piu grande e la maraviglia, quanto piu fiacca e la mia capacita in ogni cosa. essendomi consigliato con il padre spirituale che era della Compagnia, la difficoltá principale per cui io allo spuntar di questa mia vocazione non mi diedi allo studio affinché poi entrato nella Compagia potessi piú immediatamente conseguire il fine della mia vocazione, fù perche i miei genitori eran poveri.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Affine dunque di glorificare jddio di tanto intanto saró á suoi piedi per domandar la grazia di essere ammesso alle Sante missioni.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;tale é la mia disposizione, che io adesso mi porei in Cammino per le missioni dell giappone, ancorché credessi che appena giunto dovessi dare la vita; ed io sarei pienamente contento di irrigare quelle aride terre con il proprio sangue onde renderle feconde d’anime di Cristo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;e intanto baciandole umilmente la mano sono della Vostra Paternitá infimo servo Francesco Sordini della Compagnia di Gesù&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;hristi&lt;/em&gt; Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;do in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to Padre N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Perdoni V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; se da altri Le verrà parlato di me, senza che prima direttamente avesse ricevute le mie povere preghiere. I miei fondati dubbî me ne diedero occasione, ed ora col massimo rossore debbo confessare che sono stato colpevole di poca sincerità presso V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mentre rifletto, che avrei dovuto esporle tutto me intorno la Vocazione (se è tale) alle Missioni. Avrei dovuto altresì significarle i dubbî che mi ritraevano ad avanzarlene preghiera; e le difficoltà tutte, contro essa che mi sorgevano in mente, e le ragioni a favore che mi c'inclinavano. Ora mi trovo d'aver commesso il fallo, e per tale lo umilio ai piedi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; sicuro che mi usi la misericordia di vero Padre, mentre fin d'ora m'attendo, e ben volentieri accetto quel degno castigo che mi son meritato. Frattanto con per mia giustificazione, ma solo per supplicare alla mancanza fatta, e per meglio conoscere la Divina volontà, da cui non voglio menomamente dipartirmi, vado in breve ad esporle l'andamento di questa vocazione, quale tosto che da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la sentissi comea da Dio, La prego &lt;em&gt;in visceribus Christi&lt;/em&gt; ad accettare le umili preghiere che Le ne fo a darle corso.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sappia in prima che da gran tempo, e potrei dire da poco dopo il mio Noviziato, il pensiero delle Missioni di tanto in tanto mi si risvegliava in mente, ed il desiderio che ne seguiva in cuore mi forzava ad [affacciarne] vive istanze a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;. Riggettava e l'uno e l'altro, quasi sempre riputandoli illusioni e non da Dio. Aveva però la mia ragioni; e le riputava tali da non restarmene positivo dubbio. Non m'istò a distenderle tutte, mentre V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ben conosce le mie meschine qualità, e quanto altro mi appartiene. Le dico però solamente che la riflessione solita a fare nella privazione di ogni soda virtù che in me ravvisava, mi astringeva a starmene nascosto, per non sembrare di presumere cosa, che credeva moralmente impossibile, finche a Dio benedetto soffre piaciuto rendermene meno disadatto, e meno indegno. Nell'istessa guisa ragionava sul conto di non poter fare colà, ove fossi stato destinato, cosa veruna di bene, e per gli studi non percorsi, e per le lingue non apprese, e per la insufficienza a poterle apparare, dopo ancora lungo tempo e costante fatica..... etc&lt;em&gt;etera&lt;/em&gt;. Questi sono stati i miei pensieri le tante volte, questi i discorsi passati nell'afflitta anima mia, quando più vivo scorgeva il desiderio di essere strumento di Dio a benefizio di anime più abbandonate, ed in maggior pericolo di loro perdizione. L'Osservazione&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;però costante, fatta da anni, che la voce era la stessa, e per cui ne avanzassi supplica a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternitàI&lt;/em&gt; Ed in questi ultimi tempi un certo rimprovero che mi faceva credere non esservi la divina benedizione nei ministeri assegnatimi, per cui era scarsissimo il frutto, mentre Dio altrove pareva mi chiamasse; e quindi il timore d'oppormi con ostinazione al Divin volere, dopo matura considerazione e preghiere ai S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; Cuori m'indussero ab profittare dell'ultima occasione dell'arrivo in Napoli del R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ryder, mi scrissi espandendogli il mio cuore, per conosce da lui se quel pensiero, e desiderio in un sudito, tanto privo di requisiti necessari a tali ministeri, mi provenisse da Dio, ed in conseguenza se ne avessi a far conto. Ora adunque che lo sento a me propenso, e che volentieri mi accetterebbe, resto in certo modo con minor pericolo d'inganno, e parmi che veramente altrove sia chiamato. Nondimeno non resterò mai tranquillo del tutto, se non quando, espostele lo stato mio presente, sentirò da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; CHE COSA Dio Le ne ispira, e qual consiglio vuole che io abbraccia, pel miglior bene dell'anima mia, e per la maggior gloria di Dio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Attendo con somma ansietà il di Lei avviso; e se ai miei desiderî in sul momento, facesse ostacolo, la penuria dei Padri, per cui il R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale è stato costretto mostrarsi contrario a diversi altri, permetta che faccia presente a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; quanto poco possa io giovare, per la mia incapacità, ai bisogni della nostra Provincia; che anzi posso dirmele peso gravoso e disutile. Proverei con molte particolarità questa asserzione, se dai miei Superiori immediati, non fosse tenuta per verità incontrastabile, dietro i fatti chiari e lampanti che l'accompagnano: le mie doti, li miei studî, i ministeri esercitati.... etc&lt;em&gt;etera&lt;/em&gt; oh come parlano a mio proposito, e come fanno conoscere vero che sono stato di peso nei Collegî! Sul conto mio adunque la Provincia non soffrirebbe nè per lucro cessante, nè per danno emergente; vi è in conseguenza che laddove Dio Signor N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; facesse conoscere alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; essere da Lui questa chiamata, e che perciò fosse un'affare niente dannevole o pericoloso all'anima mia, ma bensì di gloria sua, si compiaccia usarmi la carità di accogliere le mie più vive e sincere preghiere a mandarlo ed effetto. Sarebbe tal cosa una di quelle grazie specialissime, che dopo Dio terrei come concessavi dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;. Ed oh quanto me Le dovrei mostrar grato e corrispondente! Non aggiungo altro chè la lettera è ormai di assai lunga, e per non espormi ed esagerare con qualche proposizione [avanzata]. Ho dichiarato tutto alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; senza lasciare cosa alcuna, e per emendazione della colpa commessa, e per cognizione dei suoi lumi, e per la sospirata grazia, la quale solo desidero sia adempiuta, se la gloria di Dio, ed il bene dell'anima mia non abbiano a riceverne discapito. Mi trovo al momento pienamente tranquillo, e mi affido dopo Dio alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;. Faccia di me come Dio Le ispira e gli piace. Sarò contento solo di fare la sua S&lt;em&gt;antissima&lt;/em&gt; Volontà, che ben presto spero sentirmi dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; dichiarare, per uniformarmici con pieno trasporto.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non cesso raccomandarmi or più che mai ai S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; e pregandola di nuovo volermi perdonare la soprad&lt;em&gt;det&lt;/em&gt;ta e le altre tutte mie mancanze, Le chieggo la S&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Benedizione e mi riprotesto con ossequio e riverenza&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;da&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

                <text>&lt;p&gt;Molto R&lt;em&gt;everen&lt;/em&gt;do P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Vicario&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sarei lungo con V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; se volessi narrarle la storia mia intorno alle Missioni, di cui pienamente è informato N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Generale. Andai in Cina per divina Misericordia, ma tosto le circostanze mi cambiarono quella Missione coll'altra delle Indie, ove risedei maggior tempo, facendovi quel bene che mi poteva col francese che già conosceva, non che coll'Inglese che cercai d'apprendere. Al più bello delle speranze che rinascesse la estinta Missione del Bengal, eccoti altra bufera che obbliga me ed il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Boulogne lasciare Chandernagore, poichè i Signori delle Missioni Straniere da Pondichery vi destinavano altro Curato; quindi mi fu forza cedere alle istanze di ritornare in Europa, che il mio P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale non cessava replicarmi.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Tali espressi comandi e bene incalzante mi obbligarono obbedire per tema di non avere propizio Dio, laddove benignamente interpretando la volontà di N&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, mi fossi arrischiato di abbracciare altra Missione. Che tale obbedienza sia stata per me un positivo e penoso Sacrifizio lo argomenti Ella stessa, riflettendo che alla pena di un bene perduto mi si aggiungesse quella di non poterne accettare verun altro, ad onta che ne avessi caldo il desiderio, ed in faccia alle caldissime premure di ritenermi, di chi zelava pel bisogno di quelle abbandonate Missioni, sempreppiù malandate per gli ostinati scismatici e Settarî di colà. In tal guisa ebbi a penare coll'aver desistito di ritornare in Cina dopo varie chiamate e congiunture; così dall'aver rinunziato agli inviti di rimanere nel Bengal; dall'essermi scusato col M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Canoz di passare a Thrichinopoli del Madurè, ove istantemente mi attendeva; così per non avere profittato dei pressanti inviti di Monsignor Hartman in Bombay, ed in ultimo costà in Roma per aver dovuto rimettere alla volontà di Nostra Paternità l'espresso desiderio di M&lt;em&gt;onsigno&lt;/em&gt;r Barnabò di affidarmi una delle stesse Missioni, o qualche altra diversa.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Non cessando in seguito il mio ardore per le Missioni, nel profondo della umiliazione e della pena che provava, ho pur scritto a N&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; verso la fine del 1850; ma avutone un positivo rifiuto, fui tranquillo per più di un'anno a non importunarlo. Dopo che, sia per impulso del Signore, sia per quiete del mio Spirito, non sono che pochi mesi che replicate allo stesso P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; le mie preghiere, onde calcolasse davanti a Dio l'affare mio, ebbi per riscontro che la Provincia aveva bisogno di soggetti, e che per ora non si poteva.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;La mia speranza affievolita acquistò nuova lena, e molto più da una lettera del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Canoz, colla quale di costà mi esortava a custodire il dono che Dio mi faceva, e che forse non sarebbe tardato, che avendo la Compagnia la missione di Bombay, vi sarei destinato, e così sarei pago in qualche guisa nei voti miei.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ora adunque che conosco esser vicina l'apertura di questa missione, considerata la cosa davanti a Dio, mi offro a Lui ed alla Rev&lt;em&gt;eren&lt;/em&gt;za Sua pronto a faticare in quella, ed in qualunque altra vigna, come mi verrà concesso dal Signore, ed ove riuscissi maggiore la gloria sua ed il bene mio e dei prossimi. Fo questa offerta colla medesima annegazione di volontà, ché, per esperienza ben trista, appresi, che il mio ritorno dalle Missioni sia stato forse un castigo, con cui Dio abbia voluto punire in e la troppa facilità, od una fiducia soverchia o poca matura considerazione nell'intraprenderle.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Si frapporrà al certo una non lieve circostanza, la quale potrebbe impedire la conchiusione favorevole di quest'affare, intendo la opposizione del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale, affacciando il bisogno dei soggetti. A V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; non mancano risorse per farmi rimpiazzare da altri di diversa Provincia, o di affievolire con ragioni tali argomenti, soliti ad affacciarsi. Certo la direzione di un Collegio nascente, e dopo che tutto è fermo per la nuova fabbrica, la quale a completarsi porterà via ben otto anni circa, non richiede persone di tale entità, che non sia facile trovare, sempre che il voglia il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciale.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Preveggo che laddove Iddio benedetto per sua bontà ispirasse a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; concedermi tal grazia, avrei a sostenere un mondo di opposizione dai nostri e dagli esterni e parenti, peggior di quella che ebbi al 48. addurrebbero tra l'altro che ne soffrirei in salute come mi avvenne in Cina, tacendosi che in seguito la riacquistai buona come si è al presente. In conseguenza pregherei in caso V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt; trattare la cosa in modo sì segreto, che non ne sapessero che i soli Superiori coll'obbligo di non comunicarlo a chicchessia. Mi libererebbe così da un mondo di seccature; che poi sappiano la cosa, e la interpretino in quel senso che più loro piaccia, non me ne importerà affatto.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Cesso per non più tediarla. Ho compito ad un grande obbligo che m'imponeva la coscienza, e ne son contento veramente. Ora non mi resta che rimettermi del tutto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;//&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;nelle mani di Dio e sotto il Patrocinio di Maria Santissima del Buon Consiglio, che cade appunto oggi la solennità. Il Signore e la Vergine ispirino a Lei, ciò che sia per essere sul mio conto di maggior gloria di Dio, non che pel bene mio e pel bene dei prossimi.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Mi raccomando assai alle sue sante O&lt;em&gt;razioni&lt;/em&gt; e S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenza&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Conosco benissimo di dare fastidio a v&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; con le mie tante lettere, ma confidando nella sua paterna carità, e spinto dall’ardente desiderio che sento d’andare in quelle parti dell’India dove è il mio cuore, no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; ne posso fare di meno, mi sforza l’affetto a battere continuamente la porta, p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; insino che la bontà divina p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; sua misericordia infinita mi conceda la desiderata gratia. Ò Padre Nostro quante volte&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt; il giorno bramo di essere uccello acciò volando mi trasferissi a Roma p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; parlare co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; v&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, e fare le parti mie a bocca!

Credami v&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;p&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che parlo da cuore, anzi l’affermo che il mio desiderio è più di quel che li dico, no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; havendo ne ritrovando parole che lo possino esprimere. Diame [… bono] e fortunato avviso v&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;p&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; l’amore d’Iddio, e faccialo mosso dalla sua paterna carità laq&lt;em&gt;uale&lt;/em&gt;è grande verso &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;di me&lt;/span&gt; li soi figli, e verso di me &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;l&lt;/span&gt; è sta grandissima. li dimando la sua s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ta Beneditione, et alli s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti sacrifitij et orationi di v&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;p&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;molto mi raccomando.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Padre nostro no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; posso resistere al fervore che il Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re mi dona ne il pensiero che dono fastidio a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, mi ritarda dal scrivere, habbia patienza p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; l'amore del Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re e scusi con la sua paterna&lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;ta&lt;/span&gt; carità ad un suo figlio, indegno p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; altro di ogni bene. Nel voto che con licenza del p&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; provinciale, e consiglio del mio padre Spirituale p&lt;em&gt;adre&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Geronimo Tagliavia ho fatto d’andare a patire p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; l'amore d'iddio in quelle parti dell'India, ó in qual&lt;em&gt;un&lt;/em&gt;q&lt;em&gt;ue&lt;/em&gt; altra parte, c'ho aggiunto quest’altro di dimandare da v&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; tutto il tempo della mia vita, co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; ogni efficacia e fervore, l’essequitione, da me tanto bramata, di questo negotio, l’uno e l’altro voto l’haveria mandato a v&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;p&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;scritto con il mio proprio sangue, conforme lo tengo a [presso] di me, se no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; havessi giudicato che il fare ciò, era cosa soverchia. Padre Nostro no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; so quel che di me, V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; muovasi a pietà delle mie lacrime, e preghiere e diami questa felice novella, che p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; il sangue sparso di Ch&lt;em&gt;rist&lt;/em&gt;o si contenta che io vada dove il Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re mi chiama, ó fortunato a me se tale avviso riceverò! Io, se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ne dimanda a me, cosi spero che sarà, il Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re mi dona una fede viva che mi consolera, come anche farà che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; considerando li mei mancamenti sparsi col suo pretiosissimo sangue no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;m' impedirà p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; quelli meritando p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; altro così, p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; havere vissuto come vero figlio della Co&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;p&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a. &lt;em&gt;In visceribius Iesu Christi&lt;/em&gt; diami questo contento. Alli s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti sacrifitij et orationi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; molto mi raccomando e li dimando la sua s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ta Beneditione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io non posso lasciare di vieppiù scrivere a Vostra Paternità Molto Reverenda del desiderio onde ardo delle missioni straniere, sebbene per un altra parte mi sembra inconveniente presentare a suoi piedi i desiderii di me infimo fra' i servi e figli suoi in G&lt;em&gt;esù&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt;. Ma il Signore è quegli che tanto efficacemente mi parla in cuore e mi fa animo a non lasciare di più e più pregare V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che voglia esaudire questa dimanda che le fò per un intimo sentimento dell'anima proveniente senza dubio dall'amabilissimo donator d'ogni bene. Mi lascio nelle mani di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;mi mandi ove più le aggrada, solamente sappia che da sei anni continui io sento il Signore battermi alle porte del mio cuore, e scelsi la compagnia fra le tante religioni, principalmente perchè con facilità mi venga aperto l'adito alle missioni, le quali poi furono l'unico stimolo che mi mosse a cercare d'una religione.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Padre Nostro mi conceda questa grazia!&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Le bacio rispettosamente le mani mentre colla dovuta venerazione e stima mi dico pieno di fiducia in Dio che mi fia concessa la grazia&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;L'ardore delle missioni nutrito, fin da quando era nel secolo, v'è in me talmente andato crescendo; che mi anima or ad incommodare la V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, con questa mia. Io sono Fratello Coadjutore novizio ancora di quasi 13 mesi, di patria Maltese, di professione calzolajo. Doveva insieme con mio fratello, F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Alessandro [Miteri], portarmi in Roma: ma la venuta in Noto dei 40 convittori maltesi, determinò P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ryllo, e P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Esmonde mandarmi più tosto in Sicilia; ove nel convitto di Noto per quasi 6 mesi fui parte prefetto dei maltesi, parte guardarobbiere. Ora mi trovo in Palermo occupato nell'impiego di calzolajo. V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; adunque che spesso secondo i diversi bisogni spedisce ancora de' F&lt;em&gt;ratelli &lt;/em&gt;Coadjutori nelle missioni straniere, ci degni quando avrà bisogno servirsi di me. Da parte mia sono disposto andare dovunque, cioè in qualunque parte del mondo ed in qualunque missione anche la più travagliosa: poiché spero coll'ajuto di Dio portare il peso di tutti i travagli. Perdoni V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; il mio ardire, e faccia la carità di avermi presente nelle sue orazioni&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono con ogni umile ossequio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Avendo in questo di terminato i santi spirituali Esercizj non ebbi cosa che più mi stesse a cuore, quanto il rinnovare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la supplica fatta negli anni trascorsi delle missioni estere. Ed a questo me ne dà l'animo l'avermi sentito stimolare da un particolare desiderio, durante il santo ritiro, di faticare in esse fino all'ultimo respiro. Questo nuovo impulso io ho pigliato per felicissimo augurio, che abbia un di la divina bontà a degnarsi di porre i suoi occhi misericordiosi sopra di me destinandomi in fatto a si gran ministero di portar la luce a chi giace &lt;em&gt;in umbra mortii&lt;/em&gt; la cui anima costa a Cristo il suo preziosissimo sangue. Nè come lontanissimo si figura la mia un tal tempo occorrendole come anche in questo anno alcuni prima di compiere i loro studj passarono oltre mare. Intanto io pago di aver apposto nuovamente i miei desiderj a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; aspetterò con rassegnazione quello che per mezzo di Lei il Signore vorrà fare di me, e andrò consolando questo mio desiderio con coltivare con ogni studio que' giovani Faentini, a cui la divina provvidenza piacque di destinarmi in quest'anno.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;E qui gettato in ginocchioni Le chiedo umilmente la sua benedizione perché più fruttuose riescano le mie fatiche, e mi prendo la libertà di raccomandarmi a S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;antissimi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; e fervorose orazioni e sono di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;Al voto delle Missioni da me fatte opposi una giunta di chiederle, cioè, cinque anni di seguito. Trovandomi averla adempita ne' quattro anni scorsi, intenderei di farla perfetta con la presente. Nulla di preghi, o di altro aggiungo a quello, che altre volte scrissi a Vostra Paternità per non intrattenerla lungamente. Sappia solo, che, sebbene ora provi noja e ripugnanza a siffatta domanda, forse per mia colpa; nondimeno non mi rimango, nè mi ritraggo dalla richiesta fattale della missione più dura e faticosa. Io confido nella Divina Bontà. Ecco per me osservata la giunta, e quando potrò di fatto osservare il tutto! Baciandole reverentemente la mano, e pregandola dal Signore ogni bene, sono&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;P&lt;em&gt;ax&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Corse oggimai un anno, dacchè io scrissi una mia alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;, in cui Le venia significando gli ardenti miei desiderj dell’estere Missioni, e come ad esse, in quanto a me, mi sia stretto con voto perpetuo; ora sperandone bene mi fo animo ad inviargliene un’altra indirizzata allo stesso oggetto. Cotali miei desiderj, cui dissi nell’altra mia lettera aver io concepito da otto anni in qua anzichè spegnersi col tempo vieppiù s'accendono. Né può avvenire altrimenti. Imperciocché se essi mi nacquero e crebbero, la Dio mercé, colà nel secolo alla lettura d’una semplice vita del nostro S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco Saverio, molto più adesso in religione, dove di lunga mano maggiore è la stima che si fa dell’anime, e si ha per mezzo de’ Fratelli che nell’acquisto dell’anime in lontani regioni spendono la vita loro, maggior contezza de’ bisogni spirituali in cui si trovano le intere nazioni. Veramente non si può non restare altamente commossi all’udire le loro lettere, e in esse i loro focosissimi inviti. Io Le confesso ingenuamente che quando odo tali cose, o mi fo a leggere in su le carte geografiche i tanti regni in cui distinguesi il mondo, ed insieme a pensare, che nella maggior parte di essi o non vi penetrò la fede, ovvero a malo stento vi si tiene, sento struggermi il cuore; e già vorrei se fosse possibile moltiplicarmi tante volte, quante si contano città e terre d’infedeli, o almeno poterle correr tutte manifestando la soavità della Legge evangelica a chi non la conosce, e rassodandovi chi ebbe la sorte di abbracciarla. Ma scorgendo essere questo impossibile offro a Dio tutto me stesso a qualunque fatica, travaglio, e morte per amor dell’anime a tanto suo costo redente. O la felice sorte sarebbe per me, se mi toccasse non dirò già di spargere il sangue per amore di Cristo della qual grazia mi conosco indegnissimo, ma di morire oppresso dalle fatiche e travagli sostenuti in servigio dell’anime! Questo è il mio desiderio, quest’è il mio voto, e sia che non l’ottenga? per esso io venni alla Compagnia. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Essendo poi i miei desiderj così generali, come dissi, non mi sento inchinare a veruna parte del mondo in peculiar modo, solo m’ardisco di aggiungere, che più a quella terra mi sentirei portato, nella quale maggiori sono i travagli, e maggiori le fatiche. Dico &lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;mi ardisco&lt;/span&gt;, perché a dirlo schiettamente, se mi porgo a considerare la mia virtù la trovo assai meschina, nè portarebbe che io chiedessi tanto; ma pure il fo essendo certo, che Iddio, dal quale vengono tali desiderj, all’uopo non verrà meno colla sua grazia. Ecco i supplichevoli desiderj, che l’infimo fra suoi figli presenta la seconda volta alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; ponendosi insiem con essi nelle sue mani, a farne quello che meglio Le tornerà in grado. Imperciocchè la divina volontà manifestataci da Superiori deve star sopra a qualunque desiderio, come io mediante la divina grazia propongo di fare andassero anche a voto i miei desiderj per tutta la vita. E qui baciandole riverentemente la mano e chiedendole la sua paterna benedizione passo a protestarmi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Venendosene costà il nostro Reverendo Padre rettore non potei lasciare di consegnargli una mia brevissima da recare a Vostra Paternità. L’affare che io voglio in essa trattare Le è già noto fin da due anni addietro, non essendo altro che una umile domanda dell’estere missioni.&lt;/span&gt;Egli è vero che nel chiedere tal grazia arrossisco veggendomi povero d’ogni bene realmente; ma e per questo dovrò, disperando di ottenerla, lasciare di domandarla? Non sarà mai finattantoché sentirò venirmi confortando l’Apostolo dicendo che Iddio elegge i più disadatti stromenti per operar grandi cose; e perciò io dico fra me, se io non sarò una spada tagliante, o un fulmine ruinoso in man di Dio per quello che spetta a me, che monta? Sarò una mascella d’asino, ogni cosa in sua mano vale a grandissimi effetti, e così egli avrassi tutta la gloria, ed io rimarrommi nella mia confusione. Oltre poi questo pensiero ve n’ha un altro che mi conforta a fare simile dimanda, ed è, che, prescindendo anche da tal voto, mi pare d’esser tenuto in qualche modo a farla, perché Iddio servissi de’ desiderj delle missioni estere per istaccarmi da mondo fin da giovanetto, e volgermi tutto alla Compagnia, tenendomi saldo co’ medesimi all’amor di lei per ben sei anni quanti ne corsero dal primo venirmi tal vocazione fino al metterla in effetto, compiuto il ginnasio. Sicché a me pare propriamente che Iddio mi voglia per questa parte. Io però, come dissi nell’altre mie, il tutto rimetto ne’ miei Superiori; né sarà mai, col divino ajuto, che io abbia a rimanere scontento, se non avessi ad ottenere il compimento di siffatti miei desiderj e pensieri, sapendo bene che ogni cosa viene diretta dalla sua soavissima provvidenza a maggior nostro bene; solo dorommi che ciò per avventura non avvenga a cagione de’ miei peccati, e poca corrispondenza agli impulsi della divina grazia a formarmi quale dovrei essere, ove mi s’imponesse un tanto peso.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io qui credo ben fatto di non trattenere Vostra Paternità coll’esporle i miei desiderj, perché non sarebbe altro che un ridire le cose dette nell’altre mie, e perciò ho fine baciandole umilmente la mano, e pregandola di una sua larga benedizione sono&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;L’infimo fra suoi figli in Cristo&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

O Padre mio dolcissimo mi se&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to una voce interiore, che mi dice, che adesso è tempo. O felice l’anima mia, se io l’haverò in una tal’occasione per amor del Benedetto Giesu à perdere, ò per meglio dire à guadagnare. O che sete, che il mio Sig&lt;em&gt;nor&lt;/em&gt;e mi com&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;unica di spargere il sangue, e la mia vita per quell’Anime, per le quali il medesimo Dio non isparmiò la sua. Non altro priego nelle mie fredde orationi ogni giorno al Sig&lt;em&gt;nor&lt;/em&gt;e, no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; altro desidero. Et imparticolare hoggi, che è il giorno dell’Immacolata Concettione della Sa&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;tiss&lt;em&gt;im&lt;/em&gt;a Vergine mia particolar Signora, e guida massime in questo negotio, non posso dire, qua&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to mi si sia aume&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;tato il disiderio, che parmi no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; poter più durare in Vita se&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za il suo compime&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to.

Mà ò Padre dell’anima mia non più abbassi gl’occhi la priego per amore della B&lt;em&gt;eata&lt;/em&gt; Vergine, nella mia viltà, et inhabiltà, ma più presto sollevigli a’ mirare chi è quello, che chiama, quale no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; solo mi può dare ogn’habiltà, mà per sua gran bontà, come ne ho certissima spera&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za, me la darà. Miri in Giesù, che à sé per tal Via mi tira, e non mi disanimi con lunga espettatione. E se fù mai tempo, nel quale io gli ho doma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;dato questa gratia con fervore, questo si e, nel quale con l’Occasione della Venuta del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Procuratore dell’Indie, molti saran&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;o chiamati in quei felici Regni, tra’ quali prego qua&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to posso affettuosame&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;te V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mi vogli annoverare come il minimo di tutti, e qua&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;do no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; per altro, almeno per servirgli nel viaggio da Garzone, come con la maggior sincerità del mio core in penitenza delli miei gravi peccati, e per amor del mio Buon Giesù me li dedico. Con che fo fine di core raccoma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;dandomi alli S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti Sacrificij et orationi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
