Gentianus

GENTIANVS FIDELIS IN PACE . QVI
VIXIT ANNIS XXI MENSES VIII DIES
XVI ET IN ORATIONIS TVIS
ROGES PRO NOBIS QVIA SCIMVS
TE IN XP

Genantius fidelis in pace.  qui
vixit annis XXI menses VIII dies
XVI et in orationis tuis
roges pro nobis quia scimus
te in XP.

Faithful Genantius, in peace.  who
lived 21 years, eight months,
16 days, and in your prayers
beseech for us, because we know
that you are in Christ.


(I used XP in the above example because I can't reproduce the Chi-Rho symbol on this keyboard).
