[tex-eplain] definexref and hanging indents

Yes, that makes the hanging indentation work but it also puts the marker onto a new line.
However the hanging indent works without a \par in your \myref macro so not to worry.
I would like to modify it so that \mymacro passes on its second argument to become the sectionword.
In my attempt below only the argument from the last macro is passed on. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,
Adam.


\def\myref#1{%
  \csname \getproperty{\xrlabel{#1}}{class}word\endcsname
  \reftie
  \refn{#1}%
}
  
\def\mymacro#1#2{%
#2
\def\sectionword{#2}%
\definexref{#1}{[marker]}{section}
}

\mymacro
{firstref}
{My first ref}

\mymacro
{secondref}
{My second ref}

\myref{firstref}
\myref{secondref}

\bye
