Thanks Betty, I had seen that on FS, but I'd like to understand all the wording written in the original parish register.

I may be wrong but I think the missing words are shortened for 'in this county' or 'of this county'
If you look at both records on Ancestry there are two marriage dates, so one can assume the 1st October is when the banns were read and the 5th Oct was when they married, they married in Warwick, Warwickshire.
Also I noticed someone has a tree on Ancestry with these names on it and if the information is correct there, James was 12 when he married.

If you look at both Ancestry images, they're the same. I think that someone has interpreted the date as the 1st, someone else has interpreted it as the 5th.
I've seen that Tree on Ancestry, and yes, a married 12yo would be of some concern to me [aiming for masterly understatement here].
