              <text>&lt;p&gt;Molto Reve&lt;em&gt;ren&lt;/em&gt;do Padre Gen&lt;em&gt;eral&lt;/em&gt;e&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono oramai due anni, da che V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à si degnava di rendermi per mezzo de' miei Superiori avvertito di preparare il biscotto per navigare. Bramerà ora V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à saperne il risultato, ma che dirolle io mai? La volontà, per confessare il vero, non mi è mancata, ma fu poco efficace, dandone io la colpa, non so se a ragione, agli uffizii distrattivi impostimi dalla S&lt;em&gt;ant&lt;/em&gt;a Obbedienza. Io dunque ho molto a temere, che mi sia negato il gran favore di venire fra gli altri eletto all'altissimo grado di Missionario, a motivo appunto della mia poca virtù, della scarsità d'ingegno, e d'abilità per cosa di sì gran rilievo. Ma pur che vuole? io ne ho desiderio, e questo vie più mi si accresce ogni qual volta leggo, o sento leggere le lettere sì dei nostri, che degli altri Missionari negli annali della propagazione della fede. E qual cuore di fatti non si muoverebbe a pietà di quei buoni selvaggi, che sì bene accolgono la nostra S&lt;em&gt;ant&lt;/em&gt;a Religione. E qual figlio della Compagnia potrà resistere, e non offrirsi per compagno a suoi fratelli, che colle lagrime agli occhi l'invita nella grande opera, propria degli Apostoli, e de' Seguaci di G&lt;em&gt;esù &lt;/em&gt;C&lt;em&gt;risto. &lt;/em&gt;Io, torno a ripeterlo, sono molto miserabile, ne' riconosco in me le doti proprie di un missionario, ma contuttociò non mi perdo di coraggio, ed oso offrirmi a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a R&lt;em&gt;everenz&lt;/em&gt;a per tale impiego e spero, che Iddio accetterà almeno i miei desideri. Intanto io prego V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;à, la quale potrà facilmente sia per quello, che gia sa di me a voce, sia per mezzo di altri, esser informata di me, a voler disporre di me, come dal Signore verrà illuminata, ed io terrò qualunque sua disposizione per la migliore, e vivrò contento in qualunque luogo ed uffizio.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Gradirà i miei ossequi, e le preghiere, che non cesserò di porgere al Cielo per chi tanto bene mi ha fatto nello accettarmi, benchè indegnissimo, nella Compagnia. Tutti i nostri di questo col&lt;em&gt;llegi&lt;/em&gt;o stanno bene, ed attendono ai loro doveri. I convittori pure stanno bene.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Sono 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;Ind&lt;em&gt;egnissi&lt;/em&gt;mo in &lt;em&gt;C&lt;/em&gt;sris&lt;em&gt;to &lt;/em&gt;Figlio&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
