So the N in these charms, I guess will usually be a name of someone talked about on the third person? Like the object or subject of the sentence? Or might it be the same person who is being addressed in the second person? Is there some type of sentence we are more likely to expect?

I suggested one possible construction in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

In such construction, the invocation is to anchiton, while M still stands for some person (Alexander? Christ? Can "M" be a shortcut for "Alexander Magnus"?)

The stuff between "anchiton" and "te" then exists on its own and should somehow relate to anchiton, e.g. "anchiton [tu] ola dabas multos"
