              <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;erend&lt;/em&gt;o in Cr&lt;em&gt;ist&lt;/em&gt;o Padre Nostro.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Io mi sento, Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;erend&lt;/em&gt;o Padre, una si veemente brama di passare all’Indie, per consagrarmi alla salute di quei selvaggi popoli, che crederei di mancare alla Divina chiamata s’io non le manifestassi i sentimenti, che Iddio mi ispira al cuore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Lo scopo della prima supplica che le inviai, altro non era che trovandomi alla fonte, cioè Roma, potessi pregarla di presenza sù questo particolare. Ma gli ardenti desiderj degli Americani Spagnuoli che pervenuti sono in Europa per mezzo dei nostri Padri, i quali con plauso e pompa furon ricevuti dalla città di Buenos-Aires, mi spinsero a scriverle la presente preghiera accompagnata col cuore. La supplico di riflettere, che questo santo desiderio, il quale è già un anno intiero, che il Signore mi suscitò nel cuore e che fù il principio, e il fondamento della mia vocazione, da quel tempo in quì si è sempre maggiormente avvalorato, e qual frutto di Paradiso pervenuto ormai alla sua perfetta maturità, essendo stato sì spesso adacquato colle mie lagrime e così lungamente fomentato dal fuoco del Divino spirito. La prego ancor di riguardare le lagrime e le suppliche di queste nazioni che a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;chiedono soggetti per istruirli nei misteri di nostra Fede. È vero che le mie deboli forze per la poca età da un canto impediscono le desiderate Missioni; ma la Divina grazia, dall’altro canto, supplirà a tal mancamento, aumentando le deboli forze, e ricolmandomi degli ajuti necessarj per adempire il mio fine cioè la Gloria di Dio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Si degni V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; di rispondere alle mie suppliche concedendomi la grazia che le ho significato, supplicandola per quel zelo che ha della Gloria di S&lt;em&gt;ua&lt;/em&gt; D&lt;em&gt;ivina&lt;/em&gt; Maestà. Intanto mi protesto di essere disposto ad eseguire con ogni sommessione i suoi ordini secondo che a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; piacerà. Io so’ che i miei mancamenti sono tali, da rendermi indegno di tal grazia, ed a questo effetto, mi prendo la libertà di raccomandarmi ai S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; sono –&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
