Answer:

The stress on know and fate emphasizes the  speaker's certainty that he will die in combat.

Explanation:

Yeats deals a lot with elegiac subject matter, which is further reinforced by the emphasis of the word "know."  The implication is that his fate is preordained by circumstance, and this is largely conveyed by the poem's meter.
