              <text>&lt;p&gt;M&lt;em&gt;o&lt;/em&gt;lto R&lt;em&gt;everen&lt;/em&gt;do in &lt;em&gt;Christo &lt;/em&gt;Padre Nostro&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Chr&lt;span&gt;ist&lt;/span&gt;i&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Havendomi Dio per sua infinita misericordia chiamato à questo S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;Instituto, della Comp&lt;em&gt;agnia&lt;/em&gt; et essendo lui il promotore de boni, e santi desiderij; non ha mancat&lt;em&gt;o&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; sua bontà di comunicare nell’anima mia desiderij d’agiutar l’anime, (conforme al nostro instituto) e drizzarle per il fine à che sono state create; et essendo che i boni desiderij da lui comunicati, se per nostra negligenza sono trascurati, e non posti in effètto; saranno forse cagione che Dio non dia piu dell’altri, e sarebbe degno di castigo. Pertanto ho voluto far avisata V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; come Dio m’ha dato bon desiderio d’agiutar, la gentilita (la quale cieca corre per la strada larga della perditione) particolarmente con l’occasione che s’e aperta la porta per la China; e mi da più speranza certa che questo desiderio sia di Dio, oltre che la mia vocatione e stata quasi un miracolo, et essendo fuor dell’opinione di tutti che m’havesse à far religioso; pure s’e degnato di portarmi Dio nella sua casa, anzi poco dopò della vocatione ho havuto quest&lt;em&gt;o&lt;/em&gt; S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;desiderio, e via più magiormente e cresciuto nella S&lt;em&gt;anta &lt;/em&gt;Religione fomentato con spessi ragionamenti. Per tanto me l’offro prontissimo ad affaticarmi in quella vigna, essendo venuto gia il tempo della messe; e spero che si come Dio m’ha dato questo S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;desiderio mi dara gratia sufficiente per effettuarlo e prego la B&lt;em&gt;eati&lt;/em&gt;ss&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt;ma V&lt;em&gt;ergine &lt;/em&gt;Maria, e l’anime del’ S&lt;em&gt;anto &lt;/em&gt;Purgatorio che ce l’inspirino. Per fine mi raccomando à V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;; e la prego che voglia intercedere appresso Dio ne suoi S&lt;em&gt;anti &lt;/em&gt;Sacrificij e che possa diventare atto instromento per esser manegiato da miei Superiori&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;D&lt;em&gt;i&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
