&lt;p&gt;Non sarà mai vero, Molto Rev&lt;em&gt;erend&lt;/em&gt;o P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; N&lt;em&gt;ostro&lt;/em&gt; che in me si estingua l’infocatissimo desiderio, che tuttora occupa il mio cuore di sparger il sangue e dar la vita per Cristo fra le più barbare genti; l’aver inteso tempo fà alcune lettere in refettorio dei nostri missionari vi è più hanno acceso di desiderio per queste, e quasi non fò azione alla giornata che non penso alla sorte felicissima, che ebbero tanti miei fratelli; la stessa notte nei lucidi intervalli tutto mi immergo in questi dolci pensieri, talchè mi svanisce il sonno, s’allontana qualunque pensamento che non è le Missioni. Ed or chi mi conceda di morire nelle più rimote parti del mondo riducendo barbari a Cristo, infedeli alla Chiesa, peccatori alla grazia? la mia insufficienza è sola quella che mi sgomenta, ma al considerare, che la divina grazia anima i timidi, dà forza ai deboli, incoraggia colla sua sapienza i più inetti, mi fà prender animo a desiderare le missioni estere e domandarle con istanza ed umilmente alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;. Or dunque nei bisogni presenti in cui si trova la Chiesa di operari Evangelici la supplico caldamente ad avermi presente, se sarà voler dell’altissimo come uno&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt; degli ultimi suoi figli. Dal canto mio procurerò rendermi abile a sì alto ministero &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;coll’acquisto&lt;/span&gt; coll’acquisto delle virtù. V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ben sà che al presente mi vi dispongo col frequentare le carceri ed i quartieri militari. Io non cesso di pregar la Vergine S&lt;em&gt;antissima&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;ant’&lt;/em&gt;Ignazio e S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;Francesco Saverio a ciò mi agevolino presso Dio a far paghi i miei desideri. Nei S&lt;em&gt;uoi&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anti&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;acrifici&lt;/em&gt; molto mi raccomando e nell’atto di chiederle la paterna benedizione e baciarle la sacra mano passo a dirmi col massimo rispetto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
