Saying it out loud, I stressed:

Everything, exactly, schedule. Beige hue, waters, loch, all,including, French queen, heard, grand symphony again, young Arthur, wanted. Orchestra drifted, them, supported, mobile float, gave, second performance, rousing fanfare. Later, privacy, quarters, queen dined, vitamin-rich meal, barded pheasant, stuffed, tomatoes, new potatoes.

This website here, says that content words like verbs and nouns are stressed, while function words like "the" and "and" generally aren't, if that helps.
