I have found a magic prayer in BLorient5425 with the following incipit:
በስመ፡ (...) ጸሎተ፡ ድንጋፄ፡ ወመግረሬ፡ አጋንንት፡ ኮል፡ ተኮልኮል፡ ገሹሬን፡

The phrase is very similar to what I found in EMIPms00526:
(...) ፩አምስክ፡ ጸሎት፡ በእንተ፡ ድንጋጼ፡ ሌሊት፡ ወመዓልተ፡ ወመግረሬ፡ አጋንንተ፡ ኮል፡ ተከል፡ ነሽራን፡ አልሰሽድ፡ (...)

I want to create a LIT ID based on the text of BLorient5425 and list EMIPms00526 as another witness.

applies to all the open issues concerning the magic prayers.

So the approach to magic texts should be the same as outlined for Qene here #2504
-We always must use the keyword (Magic) - this will make the already searchable if one wants to find all spells we know of
-When part of the main text, a CAe ID must be used.
--When we have no access to the text we can use LIT6609ProtectPrayer or, when we know the subtype, a generic ID for the subtype (LIT5888AsmatPrayer, etc, )
--When we have the text (so the text is identifiable) we should create a specific CAe ID.
-When an additio, type MagicText with the q wherever possible is sufficient
In addition, as a desideratum, a taxonomy should be developed and then additional keywords enabling filtered search assigned

I also wonder if it makes sense to take Prières magiques éthiopiennes pour délier les charmes (maft̳aḥe š̳arāy) by Strelcyn and create a repertory starting from the study rather than redoing Strelcyn's work going occasionally through manuscripts (just like we did for the hymns and Chaîne). Griaule's recettes could also be considered.

I created a record for BLorient5425. Three prayers in this magic scroll deserved new IDs as discussed in BetaMasaheft/Documentation#2628, BetaMasaheft/Documentation#2626 and BetaMasaheft/Documentation#2627.

I updated EMIP00616 with the new ID according to our discussion in BetaMasaheft/Documentation#2628.
