I know you asked Emeraldopal and not me, but am replying nevertheless.

Not much to work with those individual words/names.
Very few words found within each one.
Also you would not mix those three either.
They are individual names.

CAMELOT

ARTHUR

MERLIN

quote:
Merlin is a legendary figure best known as the wizard featured in the Arthurian legend. The standard depiction of the character first appears in Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae, written c. 1136, and is based on an amalgamation of previous historical and legendary figures. Geoffrey combined existing stories of Myrddin Wyllt (Merlinus Caledonensis), a North Brythonic prophet and madman with no connection to King Arthur, with tales of the Romano-British war leader Ambrosius Aurelianus to form the composite figure he called Merlin Ambrosius (Welsh: Myrddin Emrys).

Geoffrey's rendering of the character was immediately popular, especially in Wales; later writers expanded the account to produce a fuller image of the wizard. Merlin's traditional biography casts him as a cambion; born of a mortal woman, sired by an incubus, the non-human wellspring from whom he inherits his supernatural powers and abilities. The name of Merlin's mother is not usually stated but is given as Adhan in the oldest version of the Prose Brut.
Merlin matures to an ascendant sagehood and engineers the birth of Arthur through magic and intrigue.
Later authors have Merlin serve as the king's advisor until he is bewitched and imprisoned by the Lady of the Lake.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merlin

So one could Lexigram his name as:
WIZARD MERLIN
or
THE WIZARD MERLIN
________________________________
ARTHUR
or
ARTHUR PENDRAGON
or
KING ARTHUR http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Arthur
________________________________
CAMELOT
Is the name of Arthur's castle.
So one could Lexigram;
CASTLE CAMELOT
or............

quote:
Etymology
The name's derivation is uncertain. It has numerous different spellings in medieval French Arthurian romance, including: Camaalot, Camalot, Chamalot, Camehelot (sometimes read as Camchilot), Camaaloth, Caamalot, Camahaloth, Camaelot, Kamaalot, Kamaaloth, Kaamalot, Kamahaloth, Kameloth, Kamaelot, Kamelot, Kaamelot, Cameloth, Camelot, Kamelot, Kaamelot, and Gamalaot. Renowned Arthurian scholar Ernst Brugger suggested that it was a corruption of Camlann, the site of Arthur's final battle in Welsh tradition. Roger Sherman Loomis believed it was derived from Cavalon, a place name that he suggested was a corruption of Avalon (under the influence of the Breton place name Cavallon). He further suggested that Cavalon/Camelot became Arthur's capital due to confusion with Arthur's other traditional court at Carlion (Caer Lleon in Welsh). Others have suggested a derivation from the Iron Age and Romano-British place name Camulodunum, one of the first capitals of Roman Britain and which would have significance in Romano-British culture. Indeed John Morris, the English historian who specialized in the study of the institutions of the Roman Empire and the history of Sub-Roman Britain, suggested in his book The Age of Arthur that as the descendants of Romanized Britons looked back to a golden age of peace and prosperity under Rome, the name "Camelot" of Arthurian legend may have referred to the capital of Britannia (Camulodunum, modern Colchester) in Roman times. It is unclear, however, where Chrétien would have encountered the name Camulodunum, or why he would render it as Camaalot. Given Chrétien's known tendency to create new stories and characters, being the first to mention the hero Lancelot and his love affair with Queen Guinevere for example, the name might also be entirely invented.

Cool!
However;
LANCELOT has too many letter "L"s
LOTUSHEARTONE has and extra "E" and "O" you don not have
LOL has an extra "L"

So....
Ditch the LOL...or use HA HA
Use the nickname LANCE in lieu of LANCELOT
And break your name into like
LOTUSHEART ONE....to make you be able to use the extra "E" and "O"
A perfect Lexigram it will then be!

Yes I can see you are playing!
You have 31 errors out of your 62 word POEM.
That is by no stretch of the imagination a Lexigram with 50% not allowed words added.

Funny POEM however!

Very nice but adding the "E" you do not have to get the word SECRET you do not have, renders your creation not an actual Lexigram, but a thing I will heretofore call a LLexi....for a creation that whilst it adheres to Linda's rules, is not an actual Lexigram, but her style of a Lexigram based reading. LLexi=Linda style Lexigram based reading. L for Linda, and Lexi...an incomplete spelling of Lexigram to indicate its not an actual Lexigram.

However...
Here are a few fixes for the word
SECR"e"T
or your line;
A SECR(E)T SEAL:
__________________

A MAGIC ORACLE SEAL
__________________
IN A MAGIC ORACLE SEAL
__________________
A STRANGE ENIGMA SEAL
__________________
IN A STRANGE ENIGMA SEAL
__________________
AN ARCANE MAGIC SEAL
__________________
IN AN ARCANE MAGIC SEAL
__________________
or.....
IN ARCANE LORE,
A STRANGE ENIGMA,
AN ORACLE SEAL
________
Anyhow,
use of any of those in lieu of the not allowed SECR"e"T
would make your creation become a 100% error free actual Lexigram!

Thanks, LEXX!

sometimes, I think rules, are
merely guidelines..
for if I wanted extra letters
I could just add a word to the
phrase I am lexigramming...

the end result would be the same,
wouldn't it?

and, I'm just having fun, I don't
need it to be perfect, I use to
do everything perfectly, and frankly
it made me crazy and everyone around
me, even silly things, like you have
to butter the toast to all edges, it
must be covered perfectly, lol,
O gosh, I am still anal, giggles and
giggles,
and the toilet paper has to come down
from the top, not from under the role..
it's in the book of etiquette, giggles
and giggles...

I LOve you, the way you are,
and I don't mind the corrections at all!

Rules are not guidelines, they are rules.
Guidelines are guidelines,
rules are rules.
And if you WANT EXTRA LETTERS ......
that is a want not a reality.

And sorry, but the end result would NOT be a Lexigram.

One need not be perfect and of course have fun!

However.......
If you add words in Lexigramming, the result is NOT A LEXIGRAM.
It is a POEM or story.
Sorry but that is a fact.
I do not mind folks having fun,
simply do not call a thing a Lexigram
when it clearly is not one.
It's like the difference betwixt a real Rolex and a fake one.
Or fools gold and real gold.
Or a DaVinci painting and a fake reproduction or spoof with things added.

Thank you.
I just do not like folks calling a thing a Lexigram when it is not actually one.
People often see the fake ones and naively
do not realize that it is not a time consuming carefully created actual Lexigram, but a thing padded often heavily with added words they do not have,
done to impress, bedazzle, and show off to folks with their
"gilded with false gold glitter" creation.
Often pretty, even impressive,
but is not an actual Lexigram and should not be called Lexigram(s).
That is unethical and cheating.

PS. Maybe there should be two Lexigram forums.
One for actual Lexigrams
and one for Lexigram based poetry/readings.

No of course not.
But her chapter is not the end all to be all on Lexigramming.
Nor was she the first.
Error free Lexigramming is ancient.
Linda was apparently not aware of that.
And yes, there many errors in her examples.
Sorry but that is fact.
She also did not invent Lexigramming.
That is also a fact.
I was doing them long before her and since.
As have many others have for thousands of years.
The error free rules predate Linda's Lexigram based reading/poem style by thousands of years.
Sigh...
why does the truth upset some folks?
Truth is not an act of being disrespectful.
I put more work into Lexigramming than anyone I know of;
and I do them without cheating by adding letters and words not found within the source.
I have been doing them for over 1/2 a century
the ancient way, error free.
