Hic ego infelix receptus Tartara Ditis,
Horrea dira mihi uiae uitamque remisi.
Non licuit fatoque meo filiosque uider[e];
Cernerem infernas sedes Superosq(ue) remisi.

Parcarum arbitrio genesis uel lege tributa
Infestis querellis superis ac tristibus aris,
Tura dedi manibus supplex crepitantia flammis,
Quod non exauditas pre[c]es de[a]busque supernis.
Te precor his precibus Bato, carissime frater:

Si qua mea commendata tibi filiosque repertos
Tradas [...] dea pauperies obnoxia non sit,
Memoriam facitote mihi, ne derisus in imo
Infernas intra sedes de crimine passus
Nomine Dalmatio semper [a]matus ab omnes.
