Per tanto mi son risoluto di manifestar con questa à S&lt;em&gt;ua &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;il desiderio, che lo Spirito Santo m’ha dato, che è, d’essere uno di quelli istromenti, che devono in questo ministerio affaticarsi; Nato in me per due cause, le quali hora à S&lt;em&gt;ua &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;come à mio amorevole padre brevemente manifesto. La prima si è perche conosc&lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;h&lt;/span&gt;o, et sò di certo che per spatio di 20. anni, che nel secolo sono stato, ho offeso Dio con innumerabili peccati, delli quali mi persuado, che patendo qualche cosa in aiuto di quell’anime, ottenerò il perdono, Il che hora per le mie tepidezze non son certo d’haver&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;ottenuto, La 2&lt;sup&gt;a&lt;/sup&gt;. è per certo impulso interno, che sento in cio havere, particolarmente considerando, che il Nostro Sig&lt;em&gt;nore&lt;/em&gt; Giesù &lt;em&gt;Christo &lt;/em&gt;non per altro si è fatt’huomo, et morto in Croce, se non per salute del’anime, e per la mia in particolare; perciò desidero imitare quello, di cui le Insegne, et il nome indegnamente ne porto. Onde prego V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;con tutto l’affetto del mio cuore, acciò si mostri favorevole a questo mio desiderio, il quale m’affido non nascere da certa simulatione esterna, ma da sincero desiderio, e salute dell’anima mia, e di quell’anime. fo fine con domandare humilmente, come Indegno figlio da S&lt;em&gt;ua &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;la benedittione, con che alli suoi Santi Sacrificij, et Orationi mi raccomando.
