sbakespsare,s Seven Age. of Man.

NIodern Blessing by a Richmond MerchantD
All the worlds fake, and all men and
women merely fakirs; they have their ups
and downs and one man in his time plays
many parts, his acts being seven ages.
At first the novice. fearing and trembling
as he starts on the road; then the yearing
with his artful, cunning face, selling corn
salve to the passers-by: then the wandering
minstrel. starving from hunger with woe
iul plea made TO his boarding mistress, and
then the drummer full of many oaths, and
bearded like pard. Jealous in word PAL mt
ing, sudden and quick at a bargain, seeking
the bubble reputation of narrator even In
the truths mouth. And then the old rounder
in fair round pocket with much cash lined.
with eyes severe and beard Of formidable
cut, full of slick tricks and modern ma
nnuyres, and so he works his way.
The sixth age shifts with the second:
handed pautaloOn. with scar on nose and
watch in pawn his youthful chances well
abused continually haunt him of what
might have been and his big manly appe-
tite. turning more and more to the friendly
cup, causes hiccoughs and trebles in his
sounds.
Last scene of all that ends this strange
eventful history is lonesome bschslorhood
and mere oblivion. sans cash, sans friend,
sans home. sans everything.
