              <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;R&lt;em&gt;ever&lt;/em&gt;endo P&lt;em&gt;a&lt;/em&gt;dre in Christo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;La lettera che V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; si è degnata d’inviare in questa Provincia mi ha ripieno di consolazione, e di allegrezza spirituale; e nel tempo stesso molto mi ha animato, e deciso per le Sante Missioni estere, quantunque per ogni verso me ne riconosca inabile. Ad ogni modo però sapendo che il Signor Nostro “&lt;em&gt;infirma mundi eligit&lt;/em&gt;”, così confido che si degni di elegermi, per tal S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;ministero. Dacchè era nel Noviziato ebbi de’ desideri per ciò, e ne volea scrivere; ma onde meglio assicurarmi se veramente venivano da Dio, o no presi tempo per meglio pensarvi, e decidermi: vi ho pensato, ne ho consultato il P&lt;em&gt;adre &lt;/em&gt;Spirituale, e mi ha risposto, che credeva bene scriverne a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;poichè così mi sarei assicurato della volontà di Dio. Ecco perciò che con questa mia vengo umilmente ad esporle il desiderio di andare ad ajutar quelle tante anime, che prive di ajuto spirituale irreparabilmente si perdono là tra gl’Infedeli, ed Eretici. Sappia però V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;che la poca virtù, il poco impegno per la perfezione, la poca abilità scientifica; e le tante imperfezioni dell’anima mia, molto mi diffidano, perchè non veggo in me quel capitale di provisione necessario per tale impiego; solo la salute ho bene, grazie a Dio, e l’età giovane, non ancora di trent’anni; tutto il resto, come ho detto, piuttosto mi arrestra invece di animarmi. La bontà del Signor Nostro, e la confidenza alla sua infinita Misericordia, mi fan coraggio; e mi assicurano che supliranno a quel che manca in me; essendo certo che chi si dedica tutto alla gloria di Dio, sarà da lui protetto con modo singolare. Dal fin qui detto V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;potrà rilevare se sia, o nò volontà del Signore; da la quale appena mi assicurerà, le dico che sono dispostissimo a partire, anche a piedi, quando, e per dove mi sarà ordinato, lasciando anche lo studio, che stò facendo per meglio dispormi. Mi abbandono in tutto nelle disposizioni di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, nelle quali ammiro la volontà di Dio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Mi degni del bene delle sue S&lt;em&gt;ante &lt;/em&gt;Orazioni; e mi abbia sempre presente ne’ suoi S&lt;em&gt;anti &lt;/em&gt;Sacrifici, qual’indegno figliuolo il più di tutti bisognoso. Prostratole umilmente dinanzi Le bacio le S&lt;em&gt;ante &lt;/em&gt;Mani, e la prego di benedermi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;D&lt;em&gt;i &lt;/em&gt;S&lt;em&gt;ua&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; M&lt;em&gt;olto&lt;/em&gt; Re&lt;em&gt;verenda &amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
