Hwæt!!

Good people of the subreddit. I am planning on getting a new tattoo and want it to say something like, "I speak into creation", or "As I speak, I create" in Old English (similar to Avra Kedabra or Abracadabra).

As a n00b to Old English I've come up with:

Ic āsċieppe nu

Ic spellige nu

Ic sprece swā Ic āsċieppe

I'm under the impression its more of a formal language so maybe there isn't a direct translation for create or speak into existence, but if anyone can give me an idea of a phrase that might convey this please help! Thank you

Could it be “Westseaxna Eorl” (Wessex’s Earl) or maybe something like “Eorl on Westseaxan” (Eorl in Wessex). Especially in something like “Godwin Earl of Wessex”
