This webpage shows how I've seen it done most of the time. For the lines you've given, you'll be using iambic pentameter.
*/ | */ | */ | */ | */
That <b>time</b> | of <b>year</b> | thou <b>mayst</b> | in <b>me</b> | be<b>hold</b>
I used bold to indicate the stressed syllables (/) and left the unstressed syllables (*) unbolded.
