In Shakespeare's time, a "capon" referred to a castrated rooster known for its tender and flavorful meat. When Shakespeare uses the term "good capon lined" in his works, he is likely referring to a well-fed and well-fattened capon, suggesting abundance and luxury. The term could symbolize wealth, indulgence, or excess in the context of the play or poem in which it appears.

What are examples of assonance in the seven ages of man?

Probably the best one is "lined, with eyes". It is difficult, because to do it properly you should listen to the speech done in the kind of accent they had back then, which sounds a bit like the Somerset accent we associate with pirates. There is such a reading of the speech available at the site internetshakespeare.uvic.ca If you listen, you will find that although you might think that the word "severe" which follows "eyes" is an assonance, it actually isn't, because it sounds like "with good capon loined, with oyes sevair . . ."
