English translation:bishop
Explanation:
I believe it is more likely to be an abbreviation for episcopus (bishop) than one for episcopatus (episcopate).
I found several hits online where it was clearly used for episcopus.
A very similar abbreviation for bishop is epus.

neutral  Sandra Mouton: I removed my previous comment where I had mixed up two different terms for episcopate. However, I believe it is more likely to refer to episcopus (see my answer).
