@Joy Curtin, the record reads:
d. 10ten Märtz Herm. Henrich Wehmeyer aus Eilshausen
alt 21 Jar und die Marg. Lisab. Unternbäumer 26 [possibly 20, but the scribe's 6s are more open like this, whereas his 0s are pretty closed]
wohnen als Heurlinge zu Besenkp.
Translated, this means: Herm[ann] Heinrich Wehmeyer from Eilshausen, age 21, and Marg[aretha] Lisab[eth] Unternbäumer, age 26, living as a hireling in Besenk[am]p, were married on 10 March [1791].

Thank you Charlotte -- your translation helps me to better read this pastor's handwriting.

You're welcome, Joy! I like to sometimes include the transcription along with the translation for that exact purpose--to help you and others recognize the words and letters and be able to read the specific pastor's handwriting more easily in other records:)
