&lt;p&gt;Tanta è la brama, et il desiderio che nostro Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re m’hà communicato d’andare ad aggiutare l’anime, che se ne stanno nell’Indie, e di sparger il sangue per amor del mio Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re, che lo sparse prima per me, che doppo haver aspettato due anni finalmente adesso me l’ha tanto accresciuto, che se non mi offerissi a piedi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;prontissimo per l’essecutione stimerei di contradire manifestamente alla divina volontà, la quale mi chiama a cose grandi, come appare dalli segnalati favori, che m’ […]rmi da molte, e varie infirmità, e manifesti pericoli di vita, passati insino dalle fascie, et […]ità, complessione, e natura molto a proposito per le fatiche, e stenti di quei paesi non senza [manifesto] indicio, che m’habbi riservato per spender la vita, e sparger il sangue a gloria sua, et in aggiutto dell’anime. A questi favori corporali me n’hà aggiunti molti spirituali per sua infinita bontà, tra quali grande io stimo l’havermi chiamato, e voluto nella Compagnia d’età di 14 anni, e per sua liberalissima gratia, e mia gran confusione in corrisponderli, m’ha preservato da ogni peccato mortale, e datomi gratia, e vivo desiderio non solo&lt;span&gt;a&lt;/span&gt; di offerirmeli nella Religione co S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti voti ma ancora alli sudori, e patimenti sino all’ultimo stillar del sangue tra le spade, et tra le fiamme del Giappone. E perciò supplico con ogni sincerità, et affetto V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;a rattificare la volontà di Dio, e cooperare, accioche io renda quella vita al mio Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re, quale me l’ha conservata da tanti pericoli, per sacrificargliela in quei luoghi, et in quei tempi, ne quali piu&lt;span&gt;b&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;incrudelise la persecutione contro i Christiani, e predicatori dell’Evangelio, che tale è, et sarà sempre il mio unico&amp;nbsp;desiderio, e mentre ch’io attenderò a provedermi di sode virtù, e lettere, per servitio di Dio in quei&amp;nbsp;paesi starò aspettando insieme con la sua S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ta beneditione la tanto bramata gratia, come di novo&amp;nbsp;ne supplico V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità &lt;/em&gt;per unica consolatione d’un suo indegno figlio. Gli prego per fine felicissime le feste del S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;to Natale, et alle sue&lt;span&gt;c&lt;/span&gt; orationi e S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti sacrificij m&lt;em&gt;olt&lt;/em&gt;o mi raccomando&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
