This pure statue is dedicated on behalf of the society (thiasos) to you, blazing one, as a gift from from the workshop of Parmis, crowned initiate (mystikos) among the bacchants (i.e. devotees of Bacchos = Dionysos), who reveals the ancient rite. But you, bull-horned one, receive the handwork of Hermagenes and save the sacred society (thiasos) of Parmis.
