- D (is) M (anibus)
- M (arci) Canulei
- Zosimi
- vix (it) ann (os) XXVIII
- fecit
- patronus lib (erto):
- bene merenti
- hic in vita sua nulli ma-
- ledixit sine voluntate
- patroni nihil fecit
- multum ponderis
- auri arg (enti) penes eum
- semper fuit concupiit ex eo
- nihil umquam hic artem caela-
- tura Clodiana evicit omnes
