Hello @Tom Randolph,
I read the last four words of the record as:
zweÿ Junge ledige Mägdlein = two young unmarried girls/maidens.
This appears to be a collective reference to the two godmothers, Anna and Ottilia.
I read Ottilia's father's first name as "Arbogast" rather than "Arbogap."
The word after "Arbogast Heimburgs" appears to be an abbreviation and might be "sen." = senior = the elder.
