And all the men and women merely players

They have their exits and their entrances.

One man in his time plays many parts.

His acts being seven ages.

At first the infant

Muling and puking in his nurse’s arms.

Then the whining school boy

With his satchel and shining morning face

Creeping like snail unwillingly to school.''
