I guess you are talking about Jaques' speech in As You Like It which starts "All the World's a Stage". It's a vivid if somewhat cynical portrayal of men in various stages of their life. It's a fun speech to learn and deliver because it is so colourful. That does not give it literary importance, however. I don't think it has any literary importance: it did not start a fashion for writing similar speeches or anything like that. Aphra Behn did not feel obliged to compose a "Seven ages of woman" speech.
