That "Ola" looks good. What would "dabas" be? Second person singular of "dare"? It's present tense, so not "gave" but "give". Neither it's imperative. I'm a bit confused who gives what and to whom.   If someone gives "ola" to "anchiton", or "anchiton" to "ola", or "anchiton" gives "ola" to someone else, then would not some preposition be appropriate here?

"Dabas" - a verb "dare" (Lat.),  second person singular,  imperfect indicative active tense. 
 Dare - to give,  to make a gift, to immolate. 
  Personal pronomen is not necessary in Latin,  it always is implied. I think,  "anchiton ola"  means "burnt anchiton"  or "burnt offering of anchiton". Therefore:
"You immolated anchiton in a burnt offering" or "You gave burnt (or rising) anchiton". 
In this case, construction is absolutely correct. As for the question: Why "you"?  I think,  it can be acceptable form of instruction.
