&lt;p&gt;Molto Reverendo in C&lt;em&gt;ris&lt;/em&gt;to Padre&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Spinto dalle continue insinuazioni, e dai fervidi desideri, di cui da ben dodici anni mi tiene accesa l’anima il mio Divino Redentore di sagrificargli la mia vita nelle &lt;u&gt;missioni della Cina&lt;/u&gt;, ho divisato dietro matura considerazione di prostrarmi umilmente ai piedi della Benignissima Vostra Paternità per implorarne con tutta la forza del mio cuore pregandola il desiderato permesso. Il quale son certo che Vostra Paternità, benignissima qual’è mi accorderà subito, e farà che io lasci l’Europa insieme a [R&lt;em&gt;everendo&lt;/em&gt;] P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Bruillion il quale dalle nostre regioni, come ho saputo partirà sul principio, o sul mezzo del venturo Maggio insieme ad un Padre della mia Provincia. Non mi lasci V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; gemere inesaudito in una vocazione datami, mentre io era fanciullo dal mio amabilissimo Redentore e dalla mia Immacolata Madre Maria la quale mi ha portato con una specialissima grazia nella Compagnia del suo Figliuolo. Io non posso con parole esprimere, e bramerei che a V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a sia concesso di leggere al lume della Divina Sapienza nell’animo mio; e sarei certo che la Sua Benignità mi concederebbe di porre ad opera i miei desideri. Ma spero in Dio ed in Maria S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;t&lt;em&gt;issi&lt;/em&gt;ma, e confido nel Padre dell’anima mia S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt; Francesco Saverio, che questa rozza lettera, che io Le invio valga a fare che V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a conosca il mio animo per forma che amorevolmente mi dia il desiderato permesso di recarmi nella Cina. Nè, son certo, V&lt;em&gt;ostr&lt;/em&gt;a P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a farà alcuna difficoltà sugli studi che non ho compiuti, sulla età, sulle altre circostanze, essendo la sua prudenza ben conosciuta e ben provata la sua saggezza, dalla cognizione della quale mi è stato proibito lo sciorre tutte le possibili obiezioni che mi era venuto in sospetto poter dalla P&lt;em&gt;aternit&lt;/em&gt;a Vostra essermi opposte.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Confidato prima in Dio e poi nella sua Carità mi credo e segno&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della Vostra Paternità Reverendissima&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
