Truly, the morning of our cognizance is our childhood, our youth is like the underntide, when our youth rises, just as the sun does around the third hour; our complete growth is like midday, since in the middle of the day the sun rises to the highest point in its course, just as our complete growth is flourishing in full strength. The noontide is our age, for at noontide the sun starts to go down, as the aging man's strength is waning. The eleventh hour is worn-out old age, approaching death, like the sun approaches its setting at the end of the day.
