Excerpt

One man in his time plays many parts… at first, the infant… then the whining schoolboy… then the lover… then a soldier… then the justice… The sixth age shifts… with spectacles on nose… and his big manly voice turning again toward childish treble… last scene of all… is second childishness and mere oblivion… (William Shakespeare’s the Seven Ages of Man, from As You Like It).
