The organization of Shakespeare's "All the World's a Stage" speech is organized in chronological order, just like life. Option D is correct.

"All the world's a stage" is the phrase that opens a monologue from William Shakespeare's pastoral comedy As You Like It, expressed by the melancholy Jaques in Act II Scene VII Line 138. The speech constitutes a comparison of the world with a stage and life with a play and catalogues the seven stages of a man's life, known as the seven ages of man.
