Analysis:
Seven Ages of Man
By William Shakespeare
All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms;
And then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths, and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and 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 slippered pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well saved, 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 this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
TASK 4: READ AND DISCOVER

III. LEARNING TASKS
Introduction: Word stress is considered a ―magic key‖ in understanding spoken
English. Being a part of the English language, it is a tool that non-native speakers
can use to communicate accurately and fluently.
TASK 1: MIND YOUR SYLLABICATION
What is ―syllable‖ in Filipino? Give samples of Filipino words
and indicate the number of syllables. Provide the English
equivalent of the words and likewise identify the number of
syllables. Notice how the words are pronounced. Do all
syllables receive the same degree of emphasis?

Based on the first activity, answer the following questions:
Abstraction:
TASK 4: WHERE‟S MY WORD?
Below is a list of words and jumbled list of stress patterns. With your
group, match and pair the words with their corresponding stress
pattern. Post your output on the board and as a group, read
the words aloud following the assigned stress pattern.
o O O o
 I carried the b‘tell to the hottle.
 They will desert the desert by tomorrow.
 How does pronunciation affect the meaning of the word/message?
 Can you cite some instances where you have been misunderstood
because of the way you said something/pronounced a word(s)?
 Is it possible to avoid those kinds of instances? How?
Stress is the relative force or prominence given to a syllable or word.
Improper use of stress may result in a difference in the meaning of
utterance that can cause misunderstanding.

Words Stress Patterns
opposition friendly ooOo Oo
technician pilot oO oOo
modest examination Oo ooOo
record (n) production oO oOo

A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

A nest of robins in her hair
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

The Battle with Grendel
from Beowulf
translated by Burton Raffel
Epic 4
Out from the marsh, from the foot of misty
Hills and bogs, bearing God‘s hatred,
Grendel came, hoping to kill
Anyone he could trap on this trip to high Herot.
He moved quickly through the cloudy night,
Up from his swampland, sliding silently
Toward that gold-shining hall. He had visited Hrothgar‘s
Home before, knew the way—
But never, before nor after that night,
Found Herot defended so firmly, his reception
So harsh. He journeyed, forever joyless,
Straight to the door, then snapped it open,
Tore its iron fasteners with a touch,
And rushed angrily over the threshold.
He strode quickly across the inlaid
Floor, snarling and fierce: His eyes
Gleamed in the darkness, burned with a gruesome
Light. Then he stopped, seeing the hall
Crowded with sleeping warriors, stuffed
With rows of young soldiers resting together.
And his heart laughed, he relished the sight,
Intended to tear the life from those bodies
By morning; the monster‘s mind was hot
With the thought of food and the feasting his belly
Would soon know. But fate, that night, intended
Grendel to gnaw the broken bones
Of his last human supper. Human
Eyes were watching his evil steps,
Waiting to see his swift hard claws.
Grendel snatched at the first Geat
He came to, ripped him apart, cut
His body to bits with powerful jaws,
Drank the blood from his veins, and bolted
Him down, hands and feet; death
And Grendel‘s great teeth came together,
Snapping life shut. Then he stepped to another
Still body, clutched at Beowulf with his claws,
Grasped at a strong-hearted wakeful sleeper
—And was instantly seized himself, claws
Bent back as Beowulf leaned up on one arm.
That shepherd of evil, guardian of crime,
Knew at once that nowhere on earth
Had he met a man whose hands were harder;
His mind was flooded with fear—but nothing
Could take his talons and himself from that tight
Hard grip. Grendel‘s one thought was to run
From Beowulf, flee back to his marsh and hide there:
This was a different Herot than the hall he had emptied.
But Higlac‘s follower remembered his final
Boast and, standing erect, stopped
The monster‘s flight, fastened those claws
In his fists till they cracked, clutched Grendel
Closer. The infamous killer fought

For his freedom, wanting no flesh but retreat,
Desiring nothing but escape; his claws
Had been caught, he was trapped. That trip to Herot
Was a miserable journey for the writhing monster!
The high hall rang, its roof boards swayed,
And Danes shook with terror. Down
The aisles the battle swept, angry
And wild. Herot trembled, wonderfully
Built to withstand the blows, the struggling
Great bodies beating at its beautiful walls;
Shaped and fastened with iron, inside
And out, artfully worked, the building
Stood firm. Its benches rattled, fell
To the floor, gold-covered boards grating
As Grendel and Beowulf battled across them.
Hrothgar‘s wise men had fashioned Herot
To stand forever; only fire,
They had planned, could shatter what such skill had put
Together, swallow in hot flames such splendor
Of ivory and iron and wood. Suddenly
The sounds changed, the Danes started
In new terror, cowering in their beds as the terrible
Screams of the Almighty‘s enemy sang
In the darkness, the horrible shrieks of pain
And defeat, the tears torn out of Grendel‘s
Taut throat, hell‘s captive caught in the arms
Of him who of all the men on earth
Was the strongest.
That mighty protector of men
Meant to hold the monster till its life
Leaped out, knowing the fiend was no use
To anyone in Denmark. All of Beowulf‘s
Band had jumped from their beds, ancestral
Swords raised and ready, determined
To protect their prince if they could. Their courage
Was great but all wasted: They could hack at Grendel
From every side, trying to open
A path for his evil soul, but their points
Could not hurt him, the sharpest and hardest iron
Could not scratch at his skin, for that sin-stained demon
Had bewitched all men‘s weapons, laid spells
That blunted every mortal man‘s blade.
And yet his time had come, his days
Were over, his death near; down
To hell he would go, swept groaning and helpless
To the waiting hands of still worse fiends.
Now he discovered—once the afflictor
Of men, tormentor of their days—what it meant
To feud with Almighty God: Grendel
Saw that his strength was deserting him, his claws
Bound fast, Higlac‘s brave follower tearing at
His hands. The monster‘s hatred rose higher,
But his power had gone. He twisted in pain,
And the bleeding sinews deep in his shoulder
Snapped, muscle and bone split
And broke. The battle was over, Beowulf
Had been granted new glory: Grendel escaped,

But wounded as he was could flee to his den,
His miserable hole at the bottom of the marsh,
Only to die, to wait for the end
Of all his days. And after that bloody
Combat the Danes laughed with delight.
He who had come to them from across the sea,
Bold and strong-minded, had driven affliction
Off, purged Herot clean. He was happy,
Now, with that night‘s fierce work; the Danes
Had been served as he‘d boasted he‘d serve them; Beowulf,
A prince of the Geats, had killed Grendel,
Ended the grief, the sorrow, the suffering
Forced on Hrothgar‘s helpless people
By a bloodthirsty fiend. No Dane doubted
The victory, for the proof, hanging high
From the rafters where Beowulf had hung it, was the monster‘s
Arm, claw and shoulder and all.
And then, in the morning, crowds surrounded
Herot, warriors coming to that hall
From faraway lands, princes and leaders
Of men hurrying to behold the monster‘s
Great staggering tracks. They gaped with no sense
Of sorrow, felt no regret for his suffering,
Went tracing his bloody footprints, his beaten
And lonely flight, to the edge of the lake
Where he‘d dragged his corpselike way, doomed
And already weary of his vanishing life.
The water was bloody, steaming and boiling
In horrible pounding waves, heat
Sucked from his magic veins; but the swirling
Surf had covered his death, hidden
Deep in murky darkness his miserable
End, as hell opened to receive him.
Then old and young rejoiced, turned back
From that happy pilgrimage, mounted their hard-hooved
Horses, high-spirited stallions, and rode them
Slowly toward Herot again, retelling
Beowulf‘s bravery as they jogged along.
And over and over they swore that nowhere
On earth or under the spreading sky
Or between the seas, neither south nor north,
Was there a warrior worthier to rule over men.
(But no one meant Beowulf‘s praise to belittle
Hrothgar, their kind and gracious king!) . . .

surroundings. When that is done successfully then everything else follows
naturally. Peace of mind produces right values, right values produce right
thoughts. Right thoughts produce right actions and right actions produce
work which will be a material reflection for others to see of the serenity at
the center of it all.
—Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
With an artistic drama we empathize with one or more of its characters, but
there‘s also a distance between us and their situation—a safety valve that
allows us to express a range of emotions, but also to say, ―It‘s only a movie,‖
―It‘s only a play.‖, ―It‘s only a novel.‖ Work is based upon problem solving,
how to eliminate conflict and get the job done. Episodic is fine for work. We
want day-by-day not confrontational trauma—even if it would lead to life-
changing revelation. But drama exaggerates conflict, pushes situations to
their extreme and leads us to a big turning point.
In a poem entitled Four Great Poets, Robert Francis puts his finger on the
heart of Frost‘s greatness: ―His head carved out of granite O / His hair
wayward drifts of snow / He worshipped the great God of Flow / By holding
on and letting go.‖ Here‘s an example from part of one of Frost‘s lesser
known pieces, For Once, Then, Something. In the first half he says friends
rebuke him for looking into a well and seeing only himself, reflected in the
water godlike in a wreath of ferns and cloud puffs. It‘s a criticism that could
be aimed at any writer, but what is as interesting as the meaning of Frost‘s
reply is this sense of movement that carries the reader forward to the
climatic end.
DHAKA: Hosts Bangladesh will meet Pakistan in the opening match of the
four-nation Asia Cup cricket tournament starting in Dhaka in March, an
official said on Monday. Old rivals Pakistan and India will meet in a mouth-
watering clash on March 18. The Sher-e-Bangla National stadium will host all
the matches, including the inaugural tie on March 12 and the final on
March 22, Asian Cricket Council chief executive Syed Ashraful Huq said. ―All
teams including India and Pakistan have confirmed their participation,‖ he
said. India won the last edition of the tournament in Dambulla in Sri Lanka in
June 2010.
Assessment:
TASK 4: CHECKPOINT
Identify the text type of the following articles as journalistic,
informative, or literary.
1. There were once five-and-twenty tin soldiers, who were all brothers, for they
had been made out of the same old tin spoon. They shouldered arms and
looked straight before them, and wore a splendid uniform, red and blue. The
first thing in the world they ever heard were the words, "Tin soldiers!" uttered by
a little boy, who clapped his hands with delight when the lid of the box, in
which they lay, was taken off. They were given him for a birthday present, and
he stood at the table to set them up. The soldiers were all exactly alike,
excepting one, who had only one leg; he had been left to the last, and then
there was not enough of the melted tin to finish him, so they made him to
stand firmly on one leg, and this caused him to be very remarkable.
2. What can we do to have a healthy circulatory system? Don't smoke! ...Take
vitamin E to keep the arteries supple. Eat those fresh vegetables and fruit that
supply you with antioxidants – very good for your heart. Eat fish instead of red
meat – much better for your heart.
3. First identified in the 1950s, dengue is spread by the female Aedes aegypti
mosquito; the first documented cases were in the Philippines and Thailand. The
disease has since struck worldwide, with over 100 countries at risk and 390
million infections yearly. It takes 4-10 days to become obvious, with a high
fever and flu-like symptoms. (But that‘s exactly what it‘s not. It‘s important not
to mistake it for the common flu.) It does not have a cure. The only thing to be

done is to maintain the patient‘s bodily fluids until the disease runs its course.
It‘s crucial that dengue be detected early, as the proper medical attention
can lower mortality from 20 percent to just under 1 percent. Left unchecked or
identified, dengue kills.
4. True!-nervous--very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am! but why will
you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses--not
destroyed--not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard
all things in the heaven and in the earth. I heard many things in hell. How,
then, am I mad? Hearken! and observe how healthily--how calmly I can tell
you the whole story.
5. Arroyo, who was recently re-elected to a third term as Pampanga
representative, received her release papers from the Sandiganbayan after
the high tribunal‘s ruling was released earlier in the day saying the antigraft
court erred in its findings that the former President personally benefited from
intelligence funds of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO).
6. Dengue cases rise by 36% nationwide, says DOH. For 39-year-old housewife
Maribel, the rainy season used to bring happy memories of her childhood as
she and her siblings would frolic in the heavy downpour. But not anymore. Not
since a year ago when she almost lost her 8-year-old daughter to dengue
hemorrhagic fever, the more severe form of dengue fever, a viral infection
transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito.
7. I was sick, sick unto death, with that long agony, and when they at length
unbound me, and I was permitted to sit, I felt that my senses were leaving me.
The sentence, the dread sentence of death, was the last of distinct
accentuation which reached my ears. After that, the sound of the inquisitorial
voices seemed merged in one dreamy indeterminate hum.
8. Nicotine is one of the most harmful and widely available legal drugs in the
world. It's addictive and harmful both to smokers and the people passively
exposed to smoke, especially children. If you'd like to give up smoking, but
don't know where to begin, create a structured plan.
9. President Duterte on Thursday appealed for an end to violence, ahead of his
first address to Congress in which he said he would call for an end to conflicts.
―I don‘t see anything good coming out of this war. For the sake of our children,
we have to stop this war,‖ the President told a gathering of government
troops, policemen, people displaced by conflict and local officials. It was Mr.
Duterte‘s first visit to a province in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao
(ARMM) since assuming the presidency on June 30.
10. How to keep your hair healthy? Wash your hair two to three times a week.
Avoid hot showers. Shampoo your scalp, not your roots. Towel-dry your hair
before applying conditioner. Brush your hair twice a day, from the bottom up.
Use a low-heat setting for hair-drying and point the nozzle down, not side-on.
Try castor oil, hair oil and dry shampoo.
