[kannan.cr]

In "The Seven Ages of Man," William Shakespeare compares life to a play on a stage. He says that every person goes through seven stages in life, like an actor playing different roles. Each stage has its own characteristics, showing how people change as they grow older. From a crying baby to an old person who forgets everything, Shakespeare describes life as a journey with different roles and challenges. It includes:

Seven Stages of Life: 
o Infant: A crying and helpless baby who needs care (mewling and puking).
o School-boy: A young boy who doesn’t like going to school, walks slowly like a snail.
o Lover: A young man in love, writing sad love songs for his beloved.
o Soldier: A brave but reckless man, seeking fame, ready to fight.
o Justice: A wise, middle-aged judge with a round belly, giving advice.
o Old Man (Pantaloon): An old person who becomes weak, wears loose clothes, and
has a childish voice.
o Second Childhood: The final stage where a person becomes weak, forgets things,
and loses senses (sans teeth, sans eyes, sans everything).
