i don't know in what context you are asking about shakes, but mewling is the name for kittens who are stressed because they are newly born and cannot find a teat.... The context is probably Jaques' Seven Ages of Man speech from As You Like It. The baby who is "mewling and puking in his mother's arms" probably sounds a lot like those kittens.
A master of words, it has been suggested that Shakespeare invented over 10,000 words. However, the Oxford English Dictionary has verified that the playwright has coined at least 430 words, including "puke", "Dalmation", and "leapfrog".
William Shakespeare was the first to use the word "puke" in writing. (in As You Like It: "the infant, mewling and puking in the nurse's arms") There is a record of the word "pukishness" from 1581 which shows that it may have been a word before Shakespeare used it.
Very little. "Spectacles on nose" and "youthful hose"; "world too wide" and "pouch on side". There is also plenty of assonances and alliterations: "pipes and whistles", "satchel . . . snail . . . school", "plays his part", "Mewling and puking" etc.
No, Shakespeare lived during the English Renaissance which came some time after the Renaissance in Italy.
The infant is mewling and puking in his nurse's arms.

The assonance in the "Seven Ages of Man" poem by William Shakespeare can be found in lines such as "the mewling and puking" and "the last scene of all." Assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds within nearby words.
The alliteration words in the "Seven Ages of Man" speech by William Shakespeare include "mewling and puking" and "whining schoolboy." These are examples of alliteration, which is the repetition of initial consonant sounds in neighboring words.
