 * to answer my own question and hopefully so that others will find this information
   easier to find than I did.
 *     ```
       add_filter('admin_head', 'edtior_access_to_wpseo_manage_options');
   
       function edtior_access_to_wpseo_manage_options() {
       	if (get_option('jh_editor_access_to_wpseo') != 'done') {
       		$role_object = get_role('editor');
       		$role_object->add_cap('wpseo_manage_options');
       		$role_object->add_cap('wpseo_edit_advanced_metadata');
       		update_option('jh_editor_access_to_wpseo', 'done');
       	}
       }
       ```
