Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) was one of the most famous artists in the world. He was a painter, a sculptor, an architect as well as a poet. When he was 12 years old, Michelangelo began to learn to paint as an apprentice to the most popular painter in Florence. Before he completed his apprenticeship, he stopped painting and began to work as a sculptor at the age of 16. This was the beginning of a new life for Michelangelo when he began to create amazing paintings and sculptures. Among the most famous of his works is the painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. His paintings show the history of the world according to the Bible. It was not painting on the high ceilings that was difficult but also the technique that Michelangelo used. He had to paint the damp ceiling on which plaster had been freshly laid and complete the section before the paint dried out. He worked standing in an upright position for many hours at end and often complained of a stiff neck and of paint dripping in his eyes. Michelangelo also designed the Medici Chapel. In it, he sculpted two tombs for two princes of Florence. He moved out of Florence before he completed the Chapel. In his old age, Michelangelo wrote some of his finest poetry. He died at the age of 75.

Arrange P, Q, R and S in order to make a sensible story:
P: A poor man dressed in rags came to the palace to attend the banquet. Out of courtesy he was admitted but, because of his tattered clothing, he was seated at the very end of the banquet table. By the time the platters arrived at his seat, there was no food left on them.
Q: "Oh, what delicious food I see being served upon my plate" He rubbed one spoonful into his clothes for every one he ate. A nobleman beside him, grimacing at the mess, inquired, "Sir, why are you rubbing food into your fine clothes?"
R: "OH," he replied with a chuckle, ?Pardon me if my robes now look the worst. But it was these clothes that brought me all this food. It's only fair that they be fed first!"
S: So he left the banquet, returning several hours later dressed in robes and jewels he had borrowed from a wealthy friend. This time he was brought immediately to the head of the table and, with great ceremony, food was brought to his seat first.
