Text of the inscription

Hic ubi conspicuis radiant nunc signa metallis / et nitido clarum marmore fulget opus / arida pulvereo squalebat cespite tellus / litoreique soli vilis harena fuit / pulc(h)ra sed immenso qui duxit culmina caelo / ostendens pronis currere saxa iugis / publica rex populis Thrasamundus gaudia vovit / prospera continuans numine saec(u)la suo / paruit imperiis mutato lympha sapore / et dulcis fontis proluit unda novos / expavit subitas V<o=U>lcanus surgere thermas / et trepida flammas subdidit ipse manu
