Hi everyone! I need a little help analyzing a theme for a barcarolle that I would like to write... but I'm having a bit of difficulty understanding a couple of passages.

Immediately after the anacrusis, there is a tonic arpeggio and okay, I don't really know how to interpret the subsequent arpeggio instead... since for the beginning of the next measure I had given it a dominant seventh chord over a tonic pedal... And I also have doubts about the third measure, total darkness...

.

I think:

Measure 1, on tonic pedal, I II

Measure 2, still on tonic pedal, V II

Measure 3 V V/V

Measure 4 V

Play on the "suspension" of the fifth degree
