&lt;p&gt;~Prov&lt;em&gt;incia&lt;/em&gt; Rom&lt;em&gt;ana&lt;/em&gt; - Verona, 16. Ottob&lt;em&gt;re&lt;/em&gt; 1845&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;F&lt;em&gt;ratello&lt;/em&gt; Scol&lt;em&gt;astico&lt;/em&gt; Emm&lt;em&gt;anuele&lt;/em&gt; Costa.~&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;La sincerità con la quale ci dobbiamo diportare verso i nostri Superiori, e la sicurezza in cui voglio vivere di non oppormi ai Divini voleri mi obbligano a palesare 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;un desiderio che in cor mi sorse fin dal principio del Second'anno del mio Noviziato, di andare cioé compagno a' quei missionarj che tutti s'empiegano nella propagazione del Vangelo fra i Teste Piatte. Questo mio desiderio celai per quasi due anni ai miei Superiori, il perchè nol saprei, neppur io ma all'avvicinarsi dell'epoca di quella novena a S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco Xaverio che dicesi della grazia lo palesai al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore in una coll'intenzione di chiederne a S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco per grazia in tale novena l'adempimento. Approvollo egli, e nel corso della novena tale confidenza mi [scorse] avere che impetrata mi fosse dal Santo una tal grazia che d'allora la tenni come sicura. E ciò tanto più perché il P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Rettore quando con lui mi consigliai dal dimandare a S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco tal grazia, chiedetela, mi disse, e son sicuro che ve l'otterrà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ora dunque alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; mi volgo, e quanto più caldamente posso una tal Missione la dimando, se ella crede essere di gloria di Dio. Che se volontà di Dio ella credesse essere che io qui mi rimanessi, andassi in un altro luogo qualunque ad esercitarvi qualsiasi officio anche di Coadiutor Temporale per tutta mia vita Padre Coadiutore gliel' dico sarei contentissimo.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;A questa richiesta due motivi inoltre mi spingono: il primo perchè (come a me sembra) più largo campo mi si offrirebbe a saziare una sete che ho della salute delle anime, sete che avea fin da quando ero al Secolo, anzi, fin dalla prima mia gioventù, e la quale (lo confido alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; candidamente) mi forzava a cercare le amicizie dei giovani ancor più perduti per ricondurli come Iddio mi concesse più volte sul buon Sentiero. Il Secondo perché saró allora obbligato a patire qualche cosa almen per necessità.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Io ben conosco che sfornito come sono presentemente di tutto quello che a di gran cosa richiedesi, non posso per ora neppur sperare: ma fin da ora ho creduto bene di scriverle onde presso alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; mi sia se non altro titolo sufficiente pur ottenerla, l'anzianità.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Acciò abbia, quando ella lo crederà, questa mia supplica il suo riuscimento io farò 10 Comunioni, e reciterò 10 corone per quelle anime del Purgatorio che ella 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; piacerà suffragare.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Nella speranza di ottener quanto chiedo baciandole rispettosamente la mano, e raccomandandomi 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; la prego di benedirmi&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;everen&lt;/em&gt;da&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;U&lt;em&gt;milissi&lt;/em&gt;mo ed Obb&lt;em&gt;edientissi&lt;/em&gt;mo Figlio in G&lt;em&gt;esù&lt;/em&gt; C&lt;em&gt;risto&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
