&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Per l’amore del Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re prego co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; ogni instanza a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che mi perdoni del fastidio che li dono con tante lettere, e scusi a me poverello che muoro, p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; il desiderio che ho d’essere consolato da V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; Padre Nostro mi dona tale fervore il Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re, congiunto co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; tali sproni, che tengo di [conto] che se parlassi di presenza con V&lt;em&gt;ostra&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;, senza altro haveria co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;passione di me, e mi consolaria, concedendomi quel tanto che di quando entrai nella Co&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;p&lt;em&gt;agni&lt;/em&gt;a, che sono 14 anni, che bramo, e V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; sua carità, p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; lo spatio di anni 8 mi promesse, dandomi ferma speranza nelle sue lettere che essendoci occasione, condescenderia alla mia dimanda, l’occasione adesso è venuta si che parmi tempo d’andare dove è il mio cuore, e dove il Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re così ardentemente mi chiama che no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; ho parole p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt;poterlo spiegare. Ó Dio quando sarà quelli hora beata!

P&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; l’amore d’iddio, padre Nostro, consolami, che ne lo prego, inginocchioni co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; le lacrime agli occhi, e con il maggior affetto che so e posso; e caso che p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; qualche accidente (il che nol permetta l’infinita misericordia d’iddio) si &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;diferisse &lt;/span&gt;diferisse questa missione della Cina, V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; almeno mi facci carità di darmi questa felice novella d’avvisarmi d’adesso p&lt;em&gt;er&lt;/em&gt; quando sarà. Ma spero che il Sig&lt;em&gt;no&lt;/em&gt;re, havendo pietà delle lacrime di alcuni Indiani che sono &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;in&lt;/span&gt; in questo Collegio, liq&lt;em&gt;uali&lt;/em&gt; veramente &lt;em&gt;effundunt anim&lt;/em&gt;[&lt;em&gt;as&lt;/em&gt;] nel co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;spetto d’iddio, leverà ogni impedimento acciò il Demonio no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; vinca in mettere ostacolo a si gloriosa i&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;presa. Fornisco co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; supplicare di novo a V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; che habbia di me pietà. Io adesso sto i&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;parando la lingua spagnola. Li dimando la sua s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ta Beneditione, e mi raccomando alli suoi s&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti Sacrifitii, et orationi.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
