editHey @srmerz:
Quick note here. You write "In her analysis of the poem, scholar Helen Vendler, states that the opening foot of the poem is "reversed," meaning that the meter is trochaic." Note that a reversed first foot does not change the meter. A reversed first foot adds variety, emphasis, etc. Generally speaking, the meter does not change within a line, especially in poems written before the 20th century. (You might want to re-read Lennard's chapter on meter just to reinforce your understanding.)
