Text Translation
mons Aetna maioribus solito arsit ignibus. Romae puer solidus posteriore naturae parte genitus. Bononiae fruges in arboribus natae. bubonis vox primum in Capitolio, dein circa urbem audita. quae avis praemio posito ab aucupe capta combustaque; cinis eius in Tiberim dispersus. bos locutus. in Numantia res male gestae, exercitus Romanus oppressus. Mount Etna blazed with greater fires than normal. At Rome a boy was born without an opening in his anus. At Bononia corn grew on trees. The cry of an owl was heard firstly on the Capitol, then around the city. After a reward was placed on this bird it was captured by a fowler and incinerated. It ashes were scattered in the Tiber. A bull spoke. In Numantia things went badly, since the Roman army was defeated.
