Read this excerpt from “The Song of Wandering Aengus” by William Butler Yeats.

When I had laid it on the floor
I went to blow the fire a-flame,
But something rustled on the floor,
And someone called me by my name

Which words in the first line of the excerpt are emphasized by the rhythm of the poem?

When, I, and had
I, laid, on, and floor
laid, it, and on
when, had, laid, and it
