Syntactic function vtt+N1{PIVOT}.+N2{PRED}

ditransitive (causative) verb followed by pivotal object N1 (who is caused to vtt) the object N2

This is an extraordinary syntactic frame, and time must show whether it is unique. The special syntactic case arises from the fact that the causativeness in the verb leads to a special assignment of roles to the two object nouns. I suppose one might also impose a meaning like "impose on N1's shoulders the object N2, in which case we should simply have a plain vtt+N1.+N2.
