The Seven Ages of Man by Hunter Talley

  • Infant

    Mewling and puking in the Nurse's arms
    Crying
    vomiting
  • Schoolboy

    Then the whining schoolboy with his satchel and shining morning face. Creeping like snail unwillingly going to school.
    Complaining
    Defiant
    Disrespect for authority
  • Lover

    And then the lover, Sighing like a furnace, with a woeful ballad
    Made to his mistresses eyebrow.
    heavy breathing
    singing from the heart
  • Soldier

    Then a soldier, Full of strange oaths and bearded like a pard, Jealous in honor,sudden and quick in quarrel, Seeking the bubble reputation Even in the cannon's mouth.
    Beard is patchy looks like a leopard
    Taking precious care of something
    Quick to argue about something
  • Justice

    And then the justice, In fair round belly with good capon lined, With eyes severe and beard of formal cut, Full of wise saws and modern instances; And so he plays his part.
    Belly is full with excess
    SErious and mature
    At an age to share stories and give wise advice.
  • Pantaloon

    Into the lean and slipperd pantaloon, With spectacles on nose and pouch on side; his youthful hose, well saved,a world to wide For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice
    tight fitting clothes
    wearing clothes wore as a youth
  • Scond Childhood

    Is the second childishness and mere obivion, Sans teeth, Sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
    Second stage of life were man plays a child
    Once you die you lose everything
