Help needed with Danish birth record
I am asking for help in translating the birth record for Vilhelmine Henriette Elisabeth Hoffensitz.
(#6 on record) https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QG3R-CCGT
Can anyone tell me what it says about the mother Andrea Hoffensitz, and the father Moses Meyer?
I would really appreciate your help, Thank you!
Sandy

This is my understanding of the remarks about the parents:
"Unmarried woman in the poor-house: Andrea Hopfensitz. Who reported the child's father as: Moses Meyer of the "Mosaic Denomination" ("Mos. Trossamfund"-the Jewish congregation in Århus)."
The word for "woman" in this case is "fruentimmer", and is, I am told, a disparaging term for a woman.
The witness are:
"The child's mother Andrea Hopfensitz, Johan Norstedt's(?) widow, Rasmus Wormstrup, Søren Broberg, Jacob Jørgensen; all in the poor-house."

Thank you Norm. I was wondering if something unfortunate happened. At least the information can give me some understanding of the family's circumstances. I appreciate your help.
