About Marix Morix = Mastix und Myrra
In a completely different context (Bavarian recipes), I came across "mastix".
(german: ) Mastix (mastic resin) is a natural plant resin extracted from the mastix tree (Pistacia lentiscus). It appears as light-colored, glassy resin drops that turn into small, hard grains after drying.
From a starting point such as mastix myrra / myrrha, grinding and adjusting the two can easily result in something like marix morix: omission or obscuring of st= r in mastix to match morix, simplification of the consonants and analogy of the syllables.
The vowel change myr- → mor- is perfectly understandable in Bavarian as a typical spelling, especially since u/o/y/i are written interchangeably in many scriptoria; the -ix of mastix can then be transferred to morix in an analogous way – quasi an adaptation of the two remedies.
Mastic and myrrh are classic resins with healing and cult functions that are very often mentioned together; as a pair in a “healing psalm,” they fit together semantically perfectly.
That, in turn, would also fit perfectly with Bluetoothe You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., but then I would have to revise my "perfect" translation
a little, but only a little, because the charms really do make sense. Compliments to Bluetoothe for the source. (Even Oladabatz would then maybe something of a magic phrase/like a magic word, see descriptions (last side) in the link.)
I think now we can classify the saying in 116v much better.
