The imbues originate from spells, rather than being spells themselves.

So, at your level a great spell to imbue your weapon with is Negative Energy Ray or Ice Dagger. Lean towards Neg. Energy Ray if your character is comfortable with necro spells.

So, at character level 4 you have access to cantrips, 1st and 2nd circle spells.

Go to http://wiki.arelith.com/Spellsword and see the table towards the middle under "Compatible Damage Spells" this will tell you what spells you can imbue.

If you want a fire imbue, pick one of these spells: Flare (cantrip), Burning Hands (1st circle), Combust, Scorching Ray (2nd circle).

Then, cast that on your weapon -- in your inventory -- while it's held. I've found this to be the most foolproof way of getting the imbue to your weapon.

Note that the imbue you're adding will be the same power for any of those spells you cast. Cantrips through circle 3 spells create the same "tier" of imbue power. I suggest using cantips for your imbue until you get to character level 7 and have access to the 4th circle of spells. That 4th circle spell gets you tier 2 of imbue power.
