&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;L'opportuno incontro, che mi si offre, mi anima a rinnovare a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt; la memoria di quanto già Le esponeva con lettera sul fine d'Aprile del p[&lt;em&gt;assat&lt;/em&gt;o p&lt;em&gt;assat&lt;/em&gt;o] anno. In essa io significava a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, come la lettera del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Santi avea destato in me un vivo desiderio di potermi consecrare ad una vita apostolica, qualora il Signore si degnasse di eleggermi a tanto col mezzo della s&lt;em&gt;anta&lt;/em&gt; Ubbidienza. In pari tempo però esponeva ancora la mia insufficienza e riguardo alla dottrina e molto più riguardo alla virtù; sicchè quanto per l'una parte mi alletta il tenore di vita, che fu proprio di tanti nostri Padri, e il gran bene che essi operarono, altrettanto mé sgomenta la mancanza di quelle doti, che sono all'uopo necessarie. In tale perplessità io apriva candidamente l'animo mio a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, rimettendomi interamente nelle mani dell'Ubbidienza; affinchè nè mi desse rimorso l'aver taciuto, nè l'aver parlato fosse cagione dì distogliermi punto da quella via, che il Signore suol tracciare a ciascuno per la libera disposizione de' Superiori. Il tempo concessomi a ripetere la teologia or volge al fine, e verso il fine del corrente mese debbo subire l'esame &lt;em&gt;de universa&lt;/em&gt;, così piacendo alla bontà e indulgenza del R&lt;em&gt;everendo&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;adre&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;Provinciale. Frattanto non avendo ancora ricevuto destinazione procuro di tenermi pronto a far ciò che a Dio piacerà, essendo questo il primo desiderio ch'egli mi dà.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Ho creduto di scrivere queste poche righe anche per ciò, che non ho mai potuto sapere, se l'anzidetta mia lettera sia pervenuta a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, e così questa abbastanza dichiara almeno succintamente quanto era contenuto in quella. Termino chiedendo perdono al mio forse soverchio ardire e insieme implorando la paterna benedizione, mentre con tutto il rispetto godo dirmi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
