What simile does Shakespeare use to describe the schoolboy? Does this comparison still fit children today? Does it fit you?

Answer:

The simile that Shakespeare uses to describe the schoolboy is a snail.

In lines 7 and 8 Shakespeare states categorically that “Then, the whining schoolboy with his satchel And shining morning face, creeping like a snail.”

This comparison is still fits children today when they are at the second stage of their seven-state growth towards adulthood and death.

This description does not fit me today.  I am an emotional lover, at the very third stage of my life's journey.

Explanation:

In his book titled, "The Seven Ages of Man," William Shakespeare (1864) noted that a man undergoes many experiences in seven clear stages.  He listed these stages as "the helpless infant, the whining schoolboy, the emotional lover, the devoted soldier, the wise judge, the old man still in control of his faculties, and the extremely aged - returning to helplessness (second infancy).

The simile that Shakespeare uses to explain the schoolboy maybe a snail. Discussing the second stage of a man's life, the speaker uses a simile when he compares a whining schoolboy reluctantly walking to class to a snail.

In his book titled, "The Seven Ages of Man," Shakespeare (1864) noted that a person undergoes many experiences in seven clear stages.

He listed these stages as "the helpless infant, the whining schoolboy, the emotional lover, the devoted soldier, the wise judge, the old man still on top of things of his faculties, and the extremely aged - returning to helplessness (second infancy).

Thus, the simile Shakespeare uses to describe the schoolboy is a snail, comparison fitting today because the second stage of their seven-state growth towards adulthood and death does not fit me.

Excerpt from The Art of Singing
Luisa Tetrazzint, the most famous Italian coloratura soprano of the day, declares that she began to sing before she learned to talk. Her parents were not musical, but her elder sister, now the
wife of the eminent conductor Cleofante Campanini, was a public singer of established reputation, and her success roused her young sister's ambition to become a great artist. Her parents
were well to do, her father having a large army furnishing store in Florence, and they did not encourage her in her determination to become a prima donna. One prima donna, said her father,
was enough for any family.
Luisa did not agree with him. If one prima donna is good, she argued, why would not two be better? So she never desisted from her importunity until she was permitted to become a pupil of
Professor Coccherani, vocal Instructor at the Lycée. At this time she had committed memory more than a dozen grand opera roles, and at the end of six months the professor confessed that
he could do nothing more for her voice; that she was ready for a career.
