    O would that I had been able to reward your virtues when alive. Now receive tears instead of what was due. For always, I confess, I approved of you silently in my mind: the final flame has revealed my feelings. You were always the support and protector of my affairs: now you will also be the reason for my grief. I will pour on your bones the wine you never drank. To the spirits of the dead. Anicetus, who belonged to Onesimus, made (this) for a dear master
