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 well and pouch on side,
His youthful hose well sav’d a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends his strange eventful history,
In second childishness and mere oblivion
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
Translation:
Весь мир – театр.
В нём женщины, мужчины – все актеры.
У них свои есть выходы, уходы,
И каждый не одну играет роль.
Семь действий в пьесе той. Сперва младенец,
Ревущий громко на руках у мамки...
Потом плаксивый школьник с книжкой сумкой,
С лицом румяным, нехотя, улиткой
Ползущий в школу. А затем любовник,
Вздыхающий, как печь, с балладой грустной
В честь брови милой. А затем солдат,
Чья речь всегда проклятьями полна,
Обросший бородой, как леопард,
Ревнивый к чести, забияка в ссоре,
Готовый славу бренную искать
Хоть в пушечном жерле. Затем судья
С брюшком округлым, где каплун запрятан,
Со строгим взором, стриженой бородкой,
Шаблонных правил и сентенций кладезь,–
Так он играет роль. Шестой же возраст –
Уж это будет тощий Панталоне,
В очках, в туфлях, у пояса – кошель,
В штанах, что с юности берег, широких
Для ног иссохших; мужественный голос
Сменяется опять дискантом детским:
Пищит, как флейта... А последний акт,
Конец всей этой странной, сложной пьесы –
Второе детство, полузабытье:
Без глаз, без чувств, без вкуса, без всего.

UNIT 4. ILLNESSES AND THEIR TREATMENT
A day's wait
He came into the room to shut the windows while we were still in bed and
I saw he looked ill. He was shivering, his face was white, and he walked slowly
as though it ached to move. "What's the matter, Schatz?"
"I've got a headache."
"You'd better go back to bed."
"No, I'm all right."
"You go to bed. I'll see you when I'm dressed."
But when I came downstairs he was dressed, sitting by the fire, looking a
very sick and miserable boy of nine years. When I put my hand on his forehead I
knew he had a fever.
"You go up to bed," I said, "you're sick."
"I'm all right," he said.
When the doctor came he took the boy's temperature.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"One hundred and two."
Downstairs, the doctor left three different medicines in different colored
capsules with instructions for giving them. One was to bring down the fever,
another a purgative, the third to overcome an acid condition. The germs of
influenza can only exist in an acid condition, he explained. He seemed to know
all about influenza and said there was nothing to worry about if the fever did not
go above one hundred and four degrees. This was a light epidemic of flu and
there was no danger if you avoided pneumonia.
Back in the room I wrote the boy's temperature down and made a note of
the time to give the various capsules.
"Do you want me to read to you?"
"All right, if you want to," said the boy. His face was very white and there
were dark areas under his eyes. He lay still in the bed and seemed very detached
from what was going on.
I read aloud from Howard Pyle'si Book of Pirates, but I could see he was
not following what I was reading.
"How do you feel, Schatz?" I asked him.
"Just the same, so far," he said.
I sat at the foot of the bed and read to myself while I waited for it to be
time to give another capsule. It would have been natural for him to go to sleep,
but when I looked up he was looking at the foot of the bed, looking very
strangely.
"Why don't you try to go to sleep? I'll wake you up for the medicine."
"I'd rather stay awake."
42

After a while he said to me, "You don't have to stay in here with me, Papa, if it bothers you."
"It doesn't bother me."
"No, I mean you don't have to stay if it's going to bother you."
I thought perhaps he was a little light-headed and after giving him the
prescribed capsules at eleven o'clock I went out for a while.
It was a bright, cold day, the ground covered with a sleet that had frozen
so that it seemed as if all the bare trees, the bushes, the cut brush and all the
grass and the bare ground had been varnished with ice. I took the young Irish
setter for a little walk up the road and along a frozen creek.
At the house they said the boy had refused to let any one come into the
room.
"You can't come in," he said. "You mustn't get what I have." I went up to
him and found him in exactly the position I had left him, white-faced, but with
the tops of his cheeks flushed by the fever, staring still, as he had stared, at the
foot of the bed. I took his temperature.
"What is it?"
"Something like a hundred," I said. It was one hundred and two and four
tenths.
"It was a hundred and two," he said.
"Who said so?"
"The doctor."
"Your temperature is all right," I said. "It's nothing to worry about."
"I don't worry," he said, "but I can't keep from thinking."
"Don't think," I said. "Just take it easy."
"I'm taking it easy," he said and looked worried about something.
"Take this with water."
"Do you think it will do any good?"
"Of course, it will,"
I sat down and opened the Pirate Book and commenced to read but I could
see he was not following, so I stopped.
"About what time do you think I'm going to die?" he asked.
"What?"
"About how long will it be before I die?"
"You aren't going to die. What's the matter with you?"
"Oh, yes, I am. I heard him say a hundred and two."
"People don't die with a fever of one hundred and two. That's a silly way
to talk!"
"I know they do. At school in France the boys told me you can't live with
forty-four degrees. I've got a hundred and two."
He had been waiting to die all day, ever since nine o'clock in the morning.
43

"You poor Schatz," I said. "Poor old Schatz, it's like miles and kilometers.
You aren't going to die. That's a diflerent thermometer. On that thermometer
thirty-seven is normal. On this kind it's ninety-eight."
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely," I said. "It's like miles and kilometers. You know, like how
many kilometers we make when we do seventy miles in the car?"
"Oh," he said.
But his gaze at the foot of the bed relaxed slowly. The hold over himself
relaxed too, finally, and the next day it was very slack and he cried very easily at
little things that were of no importance.
