Seven ages of man

1) Sees the earth

2) Wants it

3) Hustles to get it

4) Decides to be satisfied with 1/2 of it

5) Becomes more moderate

6) Now becomes content to posses a 6 x 2 strip of it

7) Gets it

Well, 1/3 of it anyway assuming you are thinking of the 9 circles of Inferno (hell) , the 1st cantica of the Divine Comedy. Purgatorio and Paradiso being the subsequent two.
