Mrs. Putnam to Rev. Parris in Act One of Arthur Miller's play, "The Crucible"
MRS. PUTNAM: Reverend Parris, I have laid seven babies unbaptized in the earth. Believe me, sir, you never saw more hearty babies born. And yet, each would wither in my arms the very night of their birth. I have spoke nothin', but my heart has clamored intimations. And now, this year, my Ruth, my only – I see her turning strange. A secret child she has become this year, and shrivels like a sucking mouth were pullin’ on her life too. And so I thought to send her to your Tituba-

What does His acts being seven ages mean?
Shakespeare, in this speech, has Jaques set up an extended metaphor. "All the world's a stage", he says, and what he means is that people's lives are like actors on the stage; they are "merely players" and play "many parts". Now, just after saying that a man plays many parts he says "his acts being seven ages". Acts are parts of a play, and ages can be viewed as parts of a lifetime. In each of these parts of his lifetime, Jaques says, the man plays a different part. And then he goes on to describe each one of them.

Romeo and Juliet what is 'the mistress circle'?
In Act II Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet Mercutio says 'twould anger him To raise a spirit in his mistress' circle Of some strange nature, letting it there stand Till she had laid it, and conjured it down. Mercutio has been pretending to be a magician who can conjure up Romeo by talking about Rosaline. He is carrying on this sorcerer-type imagery by talking about "raising a spirit". In this context sorcerers sometimes held that a circle, especially a circle made of chalk, could be used to summon a spirit, and on the surface that is what he is talking about. But with Mercutio, every single thing he says is talking dirty and has an obscene secondary meaning. In this sense the "spirit" is Romeo's sexual organ which he will raise in her sexual organ (the "mistress's circle") and let it stand until she has "laid it and conjured it down".
