LekhoriLekhoriold age
Three-and-twenty years form a large portion of the short life of man,—one-third as nearly as can be expressed in unbroken numbers, of the entire term fixed by the psalmist, and full one-half, if we strike off the twilight of childhood and immature youth, and of senectitude weary of its toils.
From Latin senectus (“aged, old age”), senex (“old”). Compare senescent.
