?The word after Ebor (York) is Generosus, with contractions, meaning Gentleman. On the next line is Et (And); usually there was another bondsman as well as the groom, whose name would be inserted here, but there clearly wasn't in this case.

At the bottom on the left are the ages and a bit more:
Ille aet[atis] 24 - He is aged 24
Illa de ead[em] aet[atis] 23 - She is of the same [parish], aged 23
These are roughly bracketed together, and followed by the parishes where the marriage may take place - Foston, Crambe or ('vel') Slingsby

Finally, jur[atur] cor[am] D[omi]no Canc[ellario] - sworn before the Lord Chancellor
