It is from Shakespeare's As You Like It in a speech about how we play our parts from when we are young to when we are old. This particular part is when we are growing old, and it is basically saying that the person who has gotten old and somewhat shrunken is unable to deal with the world as he once did.

What does Shakespeare mean by youthful hose?
This is a quotation from Jaques speech in As You Like It, "All the World's a Stage". His youthful hose, well sav'd, a world too wide For his shrunk shank Hose is legwear, like very long stockings that go right up to your crotch. They tied at the top to upper garments or belts or were held in place by garters. They were tight-fitting. These days hose is only worn by women (think "panty hose") but back in Shakespeare's day, men wore it too. So, the man in the speech had a pair of hose when he was a young man (hence "youthful") which he has kept, being a bit of a hoarder and a cheapskate, (hence "well sav'd") but his thighs which used to be beefy and muscular are now thin and feeble ("shrunk shank"--a "shank" is a leg, as in "veal shanks") and the hose is way too big for him now ("a world too wide") and is baggy.
