&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Pax Christi&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Se bene scrissi à V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; i giorni a dietro col P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Giacomo Domenichi Procur&lt;em&gt;ator&lt;/em&gt;e di q&lt;em&gt;ue&lt;/em&gt;sta Provincia, e pare, che quella lettera fusse stata per esser sufficiente per ricordare à V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; il &lt;span style="text-decoration: line-through;"&gt;mio&lt;/span&gt; focoso desiderio, che il N&lt;em&gt;ost&lt;/em&gt;ro Sig&lt;em&gt;nor&lt;/em&gt;e Giesù Christo per sua bontà mi communica della felicissima Missione dell’Indie; nondimeno è ta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to il fuoco, che ogni giorno più va cresce&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;do nel mio core, che con tutto che no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; puoco dubitassi di no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; infastidirla con le mie importune lettere, con tutto ciò mi ha spinto etiamdio non vole&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;do à scrivergli di nuovo, e di nuovo con affettuose lagrime per le piaghe del Buon Giesù à supplicarla, che, se gli è cara, come la sua ardentissima carità di Padre mi promette, la salute dell’anima mia, voglimi in un negotio ta&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to con essa co&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;giu&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to consolare. O Padre mio dolcissimo mi se&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to una voce interiore, che mi dice, che adesso è tempo. O felice l’anima mia, se io l’haverò in una tal’occasione per amor del Benedetto Giesu à perdere, ò per meglio dire à guadagnare. O che sete, che il mio Sig&lt;em&gt;nor&lt;/em&gt;e mi com&lt;em&gt;m&lt;/em&gt;unica di spargere il sangue, e la mia vita per quell’Anime, per le quali il medesimo Dio non isparmiò la sua. Non altro priego nelle mie fredde orationi ogni giorno al Sig&lt;em&gt;nor&lt;/em&gt;e, no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; altro desidero. Et imparticolare hoggi, che è il giorno dell’Immacolata Concettione della Sa&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;tiss&lt;em&gt;im&lt;/em&gt;a Vergine mia particolar Signora, e guida massime in questo negotio, non posso dire, qua&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to mi si sia aume&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;tato il disiderio, che parmi no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; poter più durare in Vita se&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za il suo compime&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to. E se V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; dubita della mia habilità, fà da prude&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;te Pastore. et io ancora confessomi per molto inhabile, et indegniss&lt;em&gt;im&lt;/em&gt;o. Mà ò Padre dell’anima mia non più abbassi gl’occhi la priego per amore della B&lt;em&gt;eata&lt;/em&gt; Vergine, nella mia viltà, et inhabiltà, ma più presto sollevigli a’ mirare chi è quello, che chiama, quale no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; solo mi può dare ogn’habiltà, mà per sua gran bontà, come ne ho certissima spera&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;za, me la darà. Miri in Giesù, che à sé per tal Via mi tira, e non mi disanimi con lunga espettatione. E se fù mai tempo, nel quale io gli ho doma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;dato questa gratia con fervore, questo si e, nel quale con l’Occasione della Venuta del P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Procuratore dell’Indie, molti saran&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;o chiamati in quei felici Regni, tra’ quali prego qua&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;to posso affettuosame&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;te V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; mi vogli annoverare come il minimo di tutti, e qua&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;do no&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt; per altro, almeno per servirgli nel viaggio da Garzone, come con la maggior sincerità del mio core in penitenza delli miei gravi peccati, e per amor del mio Buon Giesù me li dedico. Con che fo fine di core raccoma&lt;em&gt;n&lt;/em&gt;dandomi alli S&lt;em&gt;an&lt;/em&gt;ti Sacrificij et orationi di V&lt;em&gt;ostra&lt;/em&gt; P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
