Please help confirm/correct my translation of Epifanio Renda's death record

March 10, 1711

Epifanio, son of Giovanni and Diana Renda (it doesn't say they are dead, but Epifanio's age at death makes it virtually impossible either one of his parents is still living)

[di Ponibbi heple di Monreale] (what does this mean?)

Epifanio was aged 78 (which would make his birth year c. 1632-33)

And then a few lines that I can't understand, but are probably of limited, if any, genealogical value.

Thank you Livio!

No wonder I couldn't find his baptism record in Monreale
