Answer:

All the world's a stage = metaphor

And all the men and women merely players:

They

have their exits and their entrances;

And one man in his time plays many

parts, = metaphor

His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,

Mewling and

puking in the nurse's arms.

And then the whining school-boy, with his

satchel

And shining morning face, creeping like snail = simile

Unwillingly to

school. And then the lover,

Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad = simile

Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,

Full of strange oaths and

bearded like the pard, = simile

Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,

Seeking the bubble reputation

Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the = metaphor

justice,

In fair round belly with good capon lined,

With eyes severe and = imagery

beard of formal cut,

Full of wise saws and modern instances;

And so he

plays his part. The sixth age shifts

Into the lean and slipper'd

pantaloon,

With spectacles on nose and pouch on side, = imagery

His youthful hose,

well saved, a world too wide

For his shrunk shank; and his big manly = alliteration

voice,

Turning again toward childish treble, pipes

And whistles in his

sound. Last scene of all,

That ends this strange eventful history,

Is

second childishness and mere oblivion,

Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything = repetition

Explanation:

mark me as brainlest
