beskrivelse:

Plaque on the left side of the apse of San Nazaro Maggiore in Milan, Italy. It bears the text of an epigram, ascribed to Augustinus, celebrating the fact that faithful Serena, wife to general Stilicho, adorned the grave of Saint Nazarius (put here in 396 AD by Saint Ambrose in this basilica founded by him) as an ex voto for the return of his husband. Picture by Giovanni Dall'Orto, May 5 2007.
The text says: Qua sinuata cavo consurgunt tecta regressu sacrataeque crucis flectitur orbe caput Nazarius vitae immaculabilis integer artus conditur exsultat hunc tumuli esse locum quem pius Ambrosius signavit imagine Christi marmoribus libycis fida Serena polit coniugis ut reditu Stiliconis laeta fruatur germanisque suis pignoribus propriis".
