A old man don't know



How to eat
His food often fell down


His senses are useless

Like that of a child
He is without the eyes
He can't see

Just like the beautiful little kid


He has no teeth
As when


Hemanshi was little
She has no teeth
Yes the beautiful
Hemanshi




He has no taste



This means when a person is in last stage of his life


He becomes a little baby



So this 7th age


Is his
Second childhood

In this poem, Shakespeare uses the phrase "second childishness" to refer the way people are when they get old. As some old people act like children and thus, act stubborn or silly sometimes. Hence,  this used to be a common euphemism for senility but nowadays this term is not often used very much.
