    Explanation:

    Meters play a crucial role in enhancing the impact and beauty of the poetry by inculcating rhythm, cadence, and melody to the poems.

    As per the question, the first line 'because their ... they' employs iambic pentameter as it involves five iambic feet (pair in which a short and unstressed followed by a long or stressed syllable).

    The second line, 'a lonely impulse of delight' is written in 'iambic tetrameter' as it involves four iambic feet in it that proposes a regular beat and rhythm to it.

    The third line, 'no likely end could bring them loss' also employs 'iambic pentameter' as here two one can witness four pairs of an unstressed syllable followed by the long and accented syllable.
