              <text>&lt;p&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Adm&lt;em&gt;odum&lt;/em&gt; Rev&lt;em&gt;erende&lt;/em&gt; in C&lt;em&gt;hris&lt;/em&gt;to Pater&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Optaveram quidem missionem ad indos, maxime sinenses, idque tanto firmius, quanto difficiliores exitus illa habere, minusque solati[s] sensibilis in ea expetenda consequendaque reperiri videbatur. Quocumque enim sive languoris spiritualis sive ariditatis tempore ipsam animo versarem, nequaquam adduci potui, ut existimarem non esse ex Deo illud desiderium, quod quatuor ferme annos in clero saeculari degens habui, et cujus implendi in hac sancta Societate facilitas non leves adjecit stimulos, ut alacrius religioni nomen darem. At ut audivi ex R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;atre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciali spem tanti muneris nomine tuo, P&lt;em&gt;ater&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt;, mihi fieri, magna simul confusione atque ingenti perfusus sum gaudio reputans animo (o utinam vere!) illam mihi quidem dici spem, in corde autem tuo veram esse destinationem.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;O Pater mi Adm&lt;em&gt;odum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt; quis ego sum in Societate Iesu, ut mei recorderis? quis ego, ut cum tot viris pietate atque ingenio spectatissimus, qui missiones istas arduas exoptant, aud[erem] certare? Sed quemadmodum antea, ita et nunc potissimum me mea paupertas non dejicit, imo magis, ut Domino favente sentio, extimulat ad bene operandum. Itaque sensa animi mei prius ex R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;atre&lt;/em&gt; Ferrari, nunc demum ex R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;atre&lt;/em&gt; Provinciali satis tibi, P&lt;em&gt;ater&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt;, perspecta esse arbitror. Immo, cum eadem illa sint, quae novem fere abhinc annis in corde ferebam, immediate etiam tibi exposita a me esse non dubito: nulla enim unquam oblivio memoriam meam delebit ejus diei, qua et rationem conscientiae reddere, et vota ipsa scholasticorum in manus tuas, P&lt;em&gt;ater&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt;, mihi contigit emitter. Huc usque autem litteras hac de re misi nullas, quod nihil me consecuturum sperabam, nisi studiorum cursu expleto. Ad quoniam nunc meum desiderium peramanter a te foveri percipio, non moror; ecce adsum: utique iterum dico, ecce adsum. Eoque libentius hoc repeto, quo paucioribus humanis rationibus (nullas autem eas esse puto) adduci te, P&lt;em&gt;ater&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt;, jam video ad me vocandum. Haec igitur mihi vox Dei est. Hoc igitur semper cupio, hoc quotidie expect, hoc a te, P&lt;em&gt;ater&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt;, enixe peto, ut me quantocujus tanto munere dones. Nihil jam vereor nec ingenii mei tenuitatem, nec ipsam cordis mei infirmitatem, dummodo Deus [… M.] mecum sit, ejusque voluntas omnino in me impleatur.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Hoc meum firmissimum propositum tibi, P&lt;em&gt;ater&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everende&lt;/em&gt;, compertum esse volo. Tuis sanctis sacrificiis me commendo, ac sanctam expetens benedictionem, me tibi P&lt;em&gt;atri&lt;/em&gt; A&lt;em&gt;dmodum &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt; toto animo profiteor atque offero&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Infimu&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt; servum ac Filiu&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt; in C&lt;em&gt;hris&lt;/em&gt;to obsequentiss&lt;em&gt;imum&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
