"Now, by my life, Old fools are babes again".....
"Pray, do not mock me: I am a very foolish fond old man,
Fourscore and upward, not an hour more nor less;
And, to deal plainly, I fear I am not in my perfect mind.
Methinks I should know you, and know this man;
Yet I am doubtful for I am mainly ignorant.
What place this is; and all the skill I have
Remembers not these garments;
nor I know not Where I did lodge last night.
Do not laugh at me;
