              <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ad Majorem Dei gloriam&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Molto Reverendo in Cristo Padre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dopo aver messo a tutte prove il mio spirito, e praticati li mezzi che abbiamo nel libro degli Esercizi del Venerato Padre, ho conosciuto senza dubbio, essere volontà del Signore che io mi offra alla Compagnia disposto e pronto di spendere i giorni che mi restano del mio breve pellegrinaggio camminando a piedi scalzi e senza viatico di sorta in fatiche apostoliche dove quando e come vorrà l’ubbidienza. La quale offerta intendo di fare e faccio con tutto l’ardire e la esultanza del mio spirito in onore e gloria della Immacolata Concezione di Maria Vergine a piedi di Vostra Paternità lasciando quivi insieme coll’offerta la volontà pienamente indifferente a qual che ne sia l’esito. Forse il Signore non vorrà altro da me. Sarei troppo privilegiato…son troppi e troppo grandi li miei demeriti…mi sento arder di rossore in pensarvi. Oh bontà di un Dio per me!... Non posso spiegar ciò che sento, mi par di veder molto chiaro che ogni gran fatica e stento che mi facessi a salvezza delle anime sarebbe un vero nulla e a fronte di ciò che Iddio merita da me di amore e gratitudine, e di ciò che io merito da Lui di castighi e di flagelli. Prego caldamente Vostra Paternità di concedermi la grazia somma di obbligarmi a quanto ho proposto con voto speciale, che farei nel giorno della prossima solennità della Immacolata Concezione in onore e gloria di questa Prerogativa augusta della Vergine Santissima, la quale di questo suo titolo eccelso vuole in questi tempi più che mai servirsi a ricondurre traviati a salute, e versare sulla terra pioggia abbondante di grazie.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Non intendo con questa offerta escludere le Missioni estere, per le quali non faccio istanza, sol perché ho troppo viva fiducia che, se il Signore vorrà, vi sarò mandato senza più.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Con profondo ossequio e figlial riverenza le bacio la mano e pregandola di cuore del soccorso di Sua orazioni sono&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;di Vostra Paternità&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Infimo in Cristo Servo e Suddito &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Baldassarre Santi S.J.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>
