Here's what I can read of it so far:

November 1, 1665

GROOM: Antonio (di) Campo, from "Terra del Noura" (I don't know what this is), living in Monreale, son of living Francesco and deceased Silveria

BRIDE: Benedetta Placenti, from Monreale, daughter of living Niccolo and living Paola

I'm not sure what "Terra della Noura" refers to. There is the town called Carpineto della Nora in the province of Pescara in Abruzzo. There is also Nuoro, which is a province in Sardinia. In any case, the groom had lived in Monreale from childhood.

I read "Terra della Noara". It might be Novara di Sicilia.
