For Significant Human Experiences

Reading a poem paves the wayto making meaning in life. It allows you to share certain experiences. Oftentimes, you find you share something more in common with the poem's content than you originallythought; this makes the poem meaningful. Now, find ,out how the poem The Seuen Ages of Man from the comedy As You Like Itby William Shakespeare provides cherished pieces of information o

about the human condition.

Listen to your teacher read the poem As you listen to your teacher read the poem, read it silently and watch out for words which are difficult for you to understand. List them in your vocabulary

They have rtheir exits and entrances,

fud one man,in his time plays many parts Hislacts being seven ages. At first the infant,

Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms; And then the whining school boy, with his satchel

sni"ing morning face, creeping like snail Unwillingly to school. And then ih* loru., Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad

Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,

In fair round belly with good caper lined, .With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,

Full,of lt/hite saws and modern instances;

so he,plays his part. The sixth age shifts

Lnto, the,lean and

W,,ith spectacles on nose and pouch on side;

His'youthful hose well saved, a world too wide

For$ shr-unk,shank; and his big manly 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.

Poetry is a personal tlpe of writing where words flow and carry you along the realms of beautiful thought. What really contribute to the poem's meaning? Doubtlessly, you knowthat the orchestration of sounds, story, sense, and form brings about "life" in a poem you read. That absolutely drives you to "feel" life in it. Some poems are full of words that are fun to say aloud. You can express the meaning of the words by reading them aloud and you can use your voice to express their meaning.

. . .

In small groups of five, read aloud the poem The Seuen Ages of Man from the comedyAs You Like /t by William Shakespeare. Decide who will be the first, second., third, fourth, and fifth read.ers. Try to make the meaning of the words come alive through using good expressions.

.

Remember to produce the correct critical consonant sounds in words like: in ls/- s, z, sh, or zh.

Form eight (8) small groups and perform your assigned tasks.

Group 1, Looking for rhymes Remember that rhyme is part of .ryhat we mean when we say poetry is musical. When the ending sounds of words are repeated, we call it rhyme. Rhyming words do not appear only at the end of the ljnes (end rhyme) in poems, but they may appear within the line (internal rhynrf6).

Trtsx {2 On Using Capitalization and Punctuation Marks When you read poems, you don't pause or stop at the end of the lines, but you watch out for commas or periods to guide you. Use punctuation marks to help you find the sensible meaning of what you're reading. Clarity of expressions in poetry or prose composition exists if the sentences are appropriately punctuated and the words are properly capitalized.

The educational reforms of Charlemagne led to the invention of lowercase letters which couldbe written and read much faster. Phrases and sentence end.ings were

indicated either by ... or by a slash (/). As time went on writers looked for more ways to clarify meaning/In medieval music notation they found a way to indicate how a voice should rise or fall at the end of a sentence or phrase. Can you hear your voice rise at the end of a question? Our question mark came directly from medieval music notation.

When a long sentence broke in the middle > they put a new mark that became our semi colon and colon. The hyphen appeared as two lines 1=) iistead of one. Around A.D. r5oo the indented paragraph appeared, as did the comma and period as we know them. Printers of the Renaissance invented new marks like the exclamation points and quotation marks. By that time, people were commonly reading silently, and punctuation cameto depend more on grammatical groups than breath groups. (Parentheses and dashes appeared with the advent of printing.) By the end of the seventeenth century, our punctuation system was in place for the most pert, though sometime$ details varied. Just think, though: After only a few lessons in school-and with lots of practice reading and writing-you can boast that you've mastered a system that took westerners many centuries to develop.

Tfte Day of Destiny from Morte D'Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory

52

ady

A nd quickly KingArthur movedhimselfwithhis army alongthe coastline /! westward., toward Salisbury. And there was a day assigned betwixt King L \rthor and Sir Mordred that they should not meet upon a field beside

Salisbury and. not far from the coast. And this day so assigned as Monday after Trinity Sunday (the eighth Sqnday after Easter), whereof King Arthur was passing glad that he mightbe avenged upon Sir MordredSo upon Trinity Sunday at night King Arthur dreamed a wonderful dream, and in his dream it seemed to him that he saw upon a platform a chair, and the chair yras fast to a wheel, and thereupon sat King Arthur in the richest cloth of gold that might be made. And the King thought there was under him, far from him, and hideous deep blackwater, and therein was all manner of serpents, and worms, and wild beasts, foul and horrible. And suddenly the King thought that the wheel turned upside down, and hq fell among the serpents, and every beast took him by a limb. And then the King cried as he lay in his bed, "Help, Help!" And then knights, squires, and. yeomen awaked the King, and then he was so amazed that he knew not where he was. And then so he awaked until it was night day, and then he fell on slumbering again, not sleeping nor thoroughly waking. So it seemed to the King that there came Sir Gawain unto him vgith a number of fair ladies with him. so when King Arthur saw him, he said, "welcome, my sister's son. I weenedye hadbeen dead. And now I see thee on - live, much am I beholden unto Almighty Jesu. Ah, fair nephew and my sister's son, what been these ladies that hither be come with you?"

"Sir," said Sir Gawain, "all these be ladies for whom I have fought for when I was man tiving. And all these are those that I didbattle for in righteous quarrels, and God had given them that grace, at their great pr-ayer, because I did battle for them for their right, that they should bring me hither unto you . Thus much had given leave God", for to warn y,.QS 9f your death. If you fight tomorrow with Sir Modred, as ye both have assighbd; doubt ye not ye must be slain, and the most party of your people on both parties. And forthe great grace and goodness 53

that Almighty Jesu had unto you, and for pity of you and many more other good men there shall be slain, God had sent me to you of his special grace to give you warning that in no wise ye do battle as tomorn, but that ye take a treaty fora month from today. And you make generous offers , so that tomorn ye put in a delay. Bor within a month shall come Sir Lancelot with all his noble knights and rescue you worshipfully and slay Sir Modred and all that ever will hold with him.

Then, Sir Gawain and all the ladies vanished. And anon the King called upon his knights, squires, and yeomen, and charged them quickly to fetch his noble lords and wise bishops unto him. And when theywere come the King told them of his dream, that Sir Gawain had told him and warned him that, and he fought on the morn, he should be slain. Then the King commanded Sir Lucan the Butler and his brother Sir Bedivere the Bold, with two bishops with them, and charged them in any wise to take a treaty for a month from today with Sir Modred. "And spare not: proffer him lands and goods as much as ye think reasonable.', So then they departed and came to Sir Modred where he had a grim host of a hundred thousand, and there they entreated Sir Modred long time. And at

the last Sir Modred was agreed for to have Cornwall and Kent by King Arthur's days, and after that, all England, after the days of King Arthur. Then they ageed that King Arthur and Sir Modred should meet betwixt both their hosts, and each of them should bring fourteen persons. And so they came with this word unto Arthur. Then said he, "I am glad that this is d.one," so he went into the field. And when King Arthur should depart, he warned all his host that, and they see any sword drawn, "Look ye come on fiercely and slay that traitor Sir Modred, for I in no wise trust him." In like wise Sir Modred warned. his host that " And ye see any manner of sword drawn, look that ye come on fiercely, and so slay all that ever before you standeth, for in no wise I will not trrist for this treaty ." And in the same wise said Sir Modred unto his host, "For I know well my father will be avanged upon me." And so they met as their arrangernent was and were agreed and accorded thoroughly. And wine was fetched and they drank together. Right so came and adder out of a little heathbush, and it stung a knight in the foot. And so when the knight felt him so stung, he looked down and saw the adder. And anon he drew his sword to slay the adder, and thought none other harm. And when the host on both parties saw that sword drawn, then they blew beams, horns, and shouted grimly. And so both hosts diessed them together. And King Arthur took his horse and said, "Alas, this unhappy day!" and so rode to his party, and Sir

Modred in like wise. And never since was there never seen a more dolefuller battle in no Christian land, for there was but rushing and riding, lunging and striking; and many a deadly stroke. But ever King Arthur rode throughout the battalion of Sir Modred many times and did full nobly, as a noble should do, and at all times he fainted never. And Sir Modred did his devoir that day and put himself in great peril. And thus they fought all the long day, and never stopped till the noble knights were laid to the cold earth. And ever they fought still it was near night, and then was there a hundred thousand laid dead upon the down. Then was King Arthur wild with rage out of measure when he saw his people so slain from him. And so he looked about him and could see no more of all his host, and good knights left no more on - live, but two knights: the t'one was Sir Lucan the Butler and the other his brother Sir Bedivere. And yet they were full sore wounded. "Jesu, mercy," said the Kng, "where are all my noble knights become? Alas that ever I should see this doleful day! For now," said King Arthur. "I am come to mine end. But would to God." Said he , "that I wist nowwhere were that traitor Sir Modred that has caused all this mischief."

Thgr King Arthur looked about and

ware where stood Sir Modred leaning upon his sword among a great heap of dead men. \ryas

"Now give me my spear," said King Arthur unto Sir Lucan. "For yonder I have espied the traitor that all this woe hath wrought." "Sir, let him be," said Sir Lucan, "for he is unhappy.And if ye pass this unhappy day ye shall be right well revenged upon him. And, good lord, remember ye of your night's dream, and what the spirit of Sir Gawain told you tonight, and yet God of his great good.ness had presenred you hitherto. And for God's sake, my lord, leave offby this, for, blessed be God, ye have won the field: for yet we been here three on - live, and with Sir Modred is not one on - live. And therefore if ye leave offnow, this wicked day of destiny is past." "Now, befall me death, tide me life," said. the King, "now I see him yonder alone, he shall never escape mine hands. For at a better avail shall I never have him." "God speed you well!" said Sir Bedivere.

ok

Then the King got his spear in both his hands and ran toward his Modred, crying and saying, " Traitor. Now is thy corne!"

iir

And when Sir Modred saw King Arthur, he ran until him with his sword drawn

in his hand, and there King Arthur smote Sir Modred under the shield, with a thrust of his spear, throughout the body more than 4 fathom. And when Sir Modred felt that he had his death's wound, he thrust himself with the might that he had up to hand guard of King Arthur's spear, and right so he smote his father King Arthur with his sword holden in both his hands, upon the side of the head, that the sword pierced the helmet and the casting of the brain. And therewith Sir Modred dashed down stark dead to the earth. And noble King Arthur fell in a swough to the earth, and there he swooned. oftentimes, and Sir Lucan and Sir Bedivere oftentimes heaved him up. And so, weakly betwixt them, they led him to a little chapel not far from the seaside, and when the King was there, him thought him reasonably eased. Then heard they people cry in the field. "Now go thou, Sir Lucan;" said the King, "and let me know what betokens that noise in the field." So Sir Lucan departed, for he was grievously wounded

in many places. And so as he walked he saw and harkened by the moonlight how that pillagers and robbers were come into the field to pill and to rob many a full noble knight of brooches and bracelets and of many a good ring and many a richjewel. And who that were not dead all out there they slewthem for their harness and their riches. When Sir Lucan understood this work, he came to the King as soon as he might and told him all what he had heard and seen. "Therefore by my advice," said Sir Lucan, "it is best that we bring you to some town."

"I would it were so," said the King, "but I may not stand, my head works

so.

Ah, Sir Lancelot," said King Arthur, "this day have I sore missed thee. And alas that ever I was against thee, for now have I my death, whereof Sir Gawain me warned in my dream."

56

Then Sir Lucan took up the King the t'one side and Sir Bedivere the other parEy; and in the lifting Sir Lucan fell in a swoon that part of his guts fell out of his body, and therewith the noble knight's heart burst. And when the King awoke he beheld Sir Lucan how he lay foaming at the mouth and part of his guts lay at his feet.

"Alas," said the Krg, "this is to me a full heavy slghito see this noble duke so die for my sake, for he would have helped me that had more need of help than I. Alas that he would not complain him for his heart was so set to help me. Now Jesu have mercy upou his soul." Then Sir Bedivere wept for the death of his brother.

"Now leave this morning and weeping, gentle knight," said the Krg, "for all this will not,avail me. For wit thou well, and I might live myself, the death of Sir Lucan would grieve me evermore. But my time passeth on fast," said the King. "Therefore," said King Arthur unto Sir Bedivere, "take thou here Excalibur my good sword and go with it to yonder water's side: and when thou comest there i charge thee throw my sword in that water and come again and tell me what thou saw there." "Mylord.," said Bedivere, " your commandment shallbe done, and I shall quickly bring your sword again." So, Sir Bedevere departed. And by the way he beheld that noble sword, that the hilt and hand guard was all precioup stones. And then he said to himself, "If I throw this rich sword in the water, thereof shall never come good, but harm and loss." And then Sir Bedivere hid Excalibur under a tree. And so, as soon as he might, he came again unto the King and said he had been at the watgr and had

s so.

Then Sir Bedeivere returned again and took the sword in his hand. And yet he thought sin and shame to throw away that noble sword. And so again he hid the ,*ord and returned again and told the King, that he had been at the water and

"Sir," he said, "I saw nothing but waters lap and waves grow.,, "'Ah, traitor unto me and untrue," said King Arthur, "now you have betrayed me twice. Who would have weened thaflyou have been to me so loved and dear, and. you are named a noble knight, and would betray me for the riches of this sword. But now go again lightly, for you long tarrying put me in great jeopardy of my life,

for I have taken cold. And but if you do now as I bid you, if ever I may see you I shall slayyou with my own hands, for you would for my rich sword seeme dead". Then Sir Bedivere departed and went to the sword and lightly took it up, and so he went to the water's side; and there he bound the girdle about the hilts, and threlv the sword as far into the water as he might. And there came an arm and a hand above the water and took it and clutched it , and shook it thrice and brandished; and then vanished away the hand with the sword into the water. So Sir Bedivere came again to the King and told him what he saw. "Alas," said the

Krg, "help me hence, for I dread me I have tarried. overlong.,,

Then Sir Bedivere took the King upon his back and so went with him to that wateris side, even closer, by the bank floated a little barge with many fair ladies in it; and among them all was a queen; and all they had black hoods, and all they wept and shrieked when they saw King Arthur. "Now put me into that barge," said the King; and so he did softly. And there received him'three ladies with great mourning, and so they set them down. And in one of their laps King Arthur ldid his head, and then the queen said, "Ah, my dear brother, why have ye tarried so long from me? Alas, this wound on.your head had caught over much cold." And anon they rowed fromward the land., and Sir Bedivere beheld all the ladies go forward him." Then Sir Bedivere cried and said, "Ah, mylordArthur, what shall become of me, nowyou go from me and leave me here alone among my ene?nies?"

"comfort yourself," said the Krg, "and do as well as you may, for in me is no trust in.'For I must into the legendary valley to heal me of my grievous wound. For ever the queen and ladies wept and shrieked, that it was pity to hear. And as soon as Sir Bedivere had lost sight of the barge he wept and wailed, and so took the forest and went all that night.

And in the morning he was ware, betwixt two bare woods, of a chapel and a hermitage. Then was sir Bedivere glad, and thither he went, and when he came into the chapel he saw where lay a hermit groveling on all fours, close thereby a

tomb was new dug. When the hernr,it saw Sir Bedivere he knew him well, for he was but little before Bishop of Canterbury, that Sir Modred put to flight. "Sir," said Sir Bedivere, "what man is.there here interred that you pray so fast for?"

"Fair son," said the hermit. "I wot not verily but by guessing. But this same night, at midnight, here came a number oJladies and brought here a dead corpse and prayed me to inter him. And here they offered a hundred tapers, and gave me a thousand gold coins." "Alas," said Sir Bedivere," that was mylord King Arthur, which laid here buried in this chapel."

Then Sir Bedivere swooned, and when he awoke he prayed. the hermit that he might abide with him still, there to live with fasting and prayers:

"For from hence will I never go," said Sir Bedivere," by my will, but all the days of my life here to pray for my lord Arthur." "Sir, you are welcome to me," said the hermit, "for I know you better than you think that I do: for you are Sir Bedivere the Bold, and the full noble duke Sir Lucan the Butler was your brother." Then Sir Bedivere told the hermit all as you have heard before, and so he stayed with the hermit that was beforehand Bishop of Canterbury. And there Sir Bedivere put upon him poor clothes, and served the hermit full lowly in fasting and in prayers

Thus of Arthur I find no more written in books that been authorized, neither more of the very certainty of his death heard I nor read, but thus was he led away in a ship wherein were three queens; that one was King Arthur's sister, Queen Morgan le Fay, the other was the Queen of North Galis, and the third was the . Queen of the Waste Lands. Now more of the death of King Arthur could I never find, but that these ladies brought him to his grave, and such one was interred. there which the hermit bare witness that was once Bishop of Canterbury. But yet the hermit knew not in certain that he was verily the'body of King Arthur; for this tale Sir Bedivere, a knight of the Table Round, made it to be written. Yet some men say in many parts of England that King Arthur is not dead, but carried by the will of our Lord Jesu into another place; and men say that he shall come again, and he shall win the Holy Cross. Yet I will not say that it shall be so, but rather I would say: here in this world he changed his life. And many men say that there is written upon the tomb this:

A. Ellipsis is also a part of everyday conversation. It's normal that one speaker may cut offwhat he/she is saying, another speaker may trail off, or his/her train of thought may wander. The use of ellipsis makes the conversation
