51. Herein, as to these decades:
in the first place, the first ten years of a person with a hundred years’ life are called the tender decade; for then he is a tender unsteady child.
The next ten years are called the sport decade; for he is very fond
of sport then.
The next ten years are called the beauty decade; for his beauty
reaches its full extent then.
The next ten years are called the strength decade; for his strength and power reach their full extent then.
The next ten years are called the understanding decade; for his understanding is well established by then. Even in one naturally weak in understanding some understanding, it seems, arises at that time.
The next ten years are called the decline decade; for his fondness for sport and his beauty, strength, and understanding decline then. The next ten years are called the stooping decade; for his figure stoops forward then.
The next ten years are called the bent decade; for his figure becomes bent like the end of a plough then.
The next ten years are called the dotage decade; for he is doting
then and forgets what he does.
The next ten years are called the prone decade; for a centenarian mostly lies prone.
