&lt;p&gt;Molto Rever&lt;em&gt;en&lt;/em&gt;do in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to 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;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;
