Don't say Subject 1 and Subject 2. You'll just drive yourself crazy. 
There is only one subject, and it is the word at the end. Semantics is 
much more important than syntax here. Say something like this instead: 
causer, causee, and patient (thing acted upon).

<causer> causes <causee> to <verb> <patient>
<causee>vaD <patient> <verb>moH <causer>
