What is the birth date on record?

I'm look for Maret with father Jacob Sveans on page 22 line 16 (right page, right column). What is the date of the birth or is this date of christening? I can't read the words to find out what Feast Day this is. The year is 1796. Thanks!

    The names are as you have stated: Maret born to Jacob Sveans. The date for this christening record (no birth date is mentioned) is "Samme Dag" which is "Same day (as the one previous)". The date of that record is the 2nd day of Easter, which in 1795 was 6 April. The second day of Easter is the Monday after Easter. See here for the Moveable Feast Days for 1795:; https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Norway:_Moveable_Feast_Days_in_1795 .
