&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;
