Hans Madsen’s betrothal record translation please

[David Madison]

Hej,

Please help with the transcription and translation of the following record:

Hans Madsen + Maren Hansdatter's betrothal record: 24 Jan 1749, Pedersker Sogn, Sønder Herred, Bornholm.  The record is located at: Pedersker Sogn Kirkebog 1688 -1764, opslag 249b, and FamilySearch image 238b.

I have attached an image of the record for your use.


Please transcribe the Danish record and then translate it into English.


With appreciation!

Mvh,

David

I read:

Desp[onsata]: Fredagen d: 24 Jan: holdt Hans Madsen af Poulsk[er?] Sogn
i S......... og Maren Hans Datter her af Lÿng En? Trolo-
velse.  For ham Caverede Hr. Damms attest /: udi hans Menighed
Nexøe han da var :/ For Hende, Hendes Fader Hans Clausen ...

Betrothed, Friday January 24, Hans Madsen of Poulsker? in ...... [jurisdiction?}and Maren Hansdatter of Lyng, here.  His bond was in the form of a notice from pastor Damm, in whose Nexø parish he has been; she was vouched for by her father, Hans Clausen.

A difficult hand to read, and unusual phrasing.
