The syllables with emphasis in the line "We wear our fingers rough with handling them" are: wear, fin, rough, hand, them.
This line exemplifies iambic pentameter, which alternates between unstressed and stressed syllables, beginning with an unstressed one. For example, WE is unstressed, then WEAR is stressed, continuing this pattern.
