This dispensation is by first degree of afinity (if that makes sense in english, i have no clue), which means that the groom/bride married his/her sister-in-law/brother-in-law. In this case, Cristiano married Perpetua Rosa, who was sister of his deceased wife.

I would think a brother and a sister or father/daughter would still be considered incest, even back then. I know 1st degree is pretty rare. I could not make out the word after consanguinity, which may make a difference. I'm thinking he married his sister-in-law.
