              <text>&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;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Mi avanzo a scrivere a vostra Paternità questa mia, quantunque sappia che essendo tanto occupata, Le sarò importuno. Ma mi spinge il desiderio che ho da moltissimo tempo di aprirle il mio interno, ed estrinsecarle una che mi sembra ispirazione del Signore. Son già otto anni per grazia del Signore dacchè ho la sorte di esser figliuolo della compagnia, e sempre ho intesi fortissimi impulsi a chiedere a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; la grazia delle missioni straniere dovunque sia in suo piacere di mandarmi. Confesso che conoscendo le moltissime mie mancanze me ne reputo indegno, ma dall’altro canto confido assai nel Signore Iddio, che non lascia mai in tempo degli esercizii Spirituali, e nell’ora della giornaliera meditazione di farmi conoscere la sua volontà. Per altro io non mi assicurava, che questi interni desiderii fossero da Dio, ma mi ci son confermato al vedere, che dopo aver comunicata la cosa co’ miei Superiori Rettori, e Provinciali, tutti mi hanno approvata l’intenzione, e mi hanno confortato a fomentare l’ispirazione divina. Pertanto ho preso animo di venire a’ piedi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; ad offerirle con tutto il calore la mia inutile persona, sia nel fare il forniere (che è l’arte da me esercitata nel secolo), sia nel fare il cuoco (ciò che anche ho esercitato in compagnia), o in qualunque altra cosa mi conosca abile. Son pronto con l’aiuto di Dio a qualunque fatica, ed a qualsivoglia patimento, purchè possa ottenere questa singolarissima grazia di essere da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;trascelto a servire le missioni. Non potrebbe V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; darmi magior consolazione di Spirito, che all’accennarmi almeno qualche speranza di volermi contentare. Per altro il Signore ispiri a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; quello che sarà di sua gloria, e di mio magior bene, ed io intanto pronto a pigliare dalla mano di Dio quello, che da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; sara deciso, mi protesto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Di Vostra Paternità M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
