xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<\/span>All the world’s a stage,
\n1119: \u00a0<\/i>And all the men and women, meerely Players;
\n1120: \u00a0<\/i>They haue their\u00a0Exits<\/i>\u00a0and their Entrances,
\n1121: \u00a0<\/i>And one man in his time playes many parts,
\n1122: \u00a0<\/i>His Acts being seuen ages. At first the Infant,
\n1123: \u00a0<\/i>Mewling, and puking in the Nurses armes:
\n1124: \u00a0<\/i>Then, the whining Schoole-boy with his Satchell
\n1125: \u00a0<\/i>And shining morning face, creeping like snaile
\n1126: \u00a0<\/i>Vnwillingly to schoole. And then the Louer,
\n1127: \u00a0<\/i>Sighing like Furnace, with a wofull ballad
\n1128: \u00a0<\/i>Made to his Mistresse eye-brow. Then, a Soldier,
\n1129: \u00a0<\/i>Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the Pard,
\n1130: \u00a0<\/i>Ielous in honor, sodaine, and quicke in quarrell,
\n1131: \u00a0\u00a0<\/i>Seeking the bubble Reputation
\n1132: \u00a0<\/i>Euen in the Canons mouth: And then, the Iustice
\n1133: \u00a0<\/i>In faire round belly, with good Capon lin’d,
\n1134: \u00a0<\/i>With eyes seuere, and beard of formall cut,
\n1135: \u00a0<\/i>Full of wise sawes, and moderne instances,
\n1136: \u00a0<\/i>And so he playes his part. The sixt age shifts
\n1137: \u00a0<\/i>Into the leane and slipper’d Pantaloone,
\n1138: \u00a0<\/i>With spectacles on nose, and pouch on side,
\n1139: \u00a0<\/i>His youthfull hose well sau’d, a world too wide,
\n1140: \u00a0<\/i>For his shrunke shanke, and his bigge manly voice,
\n1141: \u00a0<\/i>Turning againe toward childish trebble pipes,
\n1142: \u00a0<\/i>And whistles in his sound. Last Scene of all,
\n1143: \u00a0<\/i>That ends this strange euentfull historie,
\n1144: \u00a0<\/i>Is second childishnesse, and meere obliuion,
\n1145: \u00a0<\/i>Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans euery thing.
