In English machine translation

Gnaeus Vergilius Capito was prefect of Egypt around AD 47-52, and the consul Poplicola of AD 48 fits the date; 'anno viii' is presumably the eighth regnal year of Claudius. The word 'vasario' is obscure, possibly connected with 'vasarium', an allowance for equipment.
