 　　The Seven Ages of Man

 
　　(from As You Like It, II, vii)
 
　　by William Shakespeare
 
　　All the world's a stage,
 
　　And all the men and women merely players;
 
　　They have their exits and their entrances;
 
　　And one man in his time plays many parts,
 
　　His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
 
　　Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms;
 
　　Then the whining2 school-boy, with his satchel3
 
　　And shining morning face, creeping like snail4
 
　　Unwillingly5 to school. And then the lover,
 
　　Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad6
 
　　Made to his mistress' eyebrow7. Then a soldier,
 
　　Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,
 
　　Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
 
　　Seeking the bubble reputation
 
　　Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
 
　　In fair round belly8 with good capon lin'd,
 
　　With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
 
　　Full of wise saws and modern instances;
 
　　And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
 
　　Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
 
　　With spectacles on nose and pouch9 on side;
 
　　His youthful hose, well sav'd, a world too wide
 
　　For his shrunk shank; and his big manly10 voice,
 
　　Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
 
　　And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
 
　　That ends this strange eventful history,
 
　　Is second childishness and mere1 oblivion;
 
　　Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
