Kevin,
What you see above is most of what I know about the form. Personally, I have mixed feelings about hypenation at the end of a line. I've done it in one my own poems (room-mate) to keep the rhyme with 'room', but I don't think I'd hyphenate before 'ly' as you've done below. Then again, Marilyn Hacker uses the device very frequently, and in strange ways such as:
black and gold on the snow where terrible chil-
dren honed the facets of the winter city.
so I suppose each of us has to decide what we're comfortable with.
