Conjectures about the “man without attributes” ( f85r2 )

[bi3mw]

The division of the ages is interesting. I always thought that people in the Middle Ages didn't live very long on average.

First, you must know that physicians state there are four stages of life:

    Adolescence,
    Youth,
    Old age, and
    Senility.

For the first stage, they say it is hot and moist, during which the body grows. This stage lasts until about 25 or 30 years old.
The second stage is hot and dry, during which the body maintains its strength and vigor, lasting until 40 or 45 years old.
The third stage is cold and dry, lasting until 60 years old.
The fourth stage is cold and moist, due to the abundance of cold humors caused by a lack of natural heat, and it lasts until death. During this stage, the body continuously declines.
