with the crown of snow cometh wisdom?

In the context of the story "The Aged Mother," how does the phrase "with the crown of snow cometh wisdom" reflect the themes of aging and wisdom? What insights can we draw from the narrative about the relationship between age and knowledge?

with age comes wisdom.

(our hair turns white as we age–crown of snow. as we grow older, we learn from the varying experiences we have)

Wisdom is always attributed to the old age. “The crown of snow” denotes the hair turning into white due to old age. So it means that one acquires wisdom when one grows up to be an elderly person.

As our body and soul grows, our knowledge also widen. As we grow, we’re getting wiser and wiser, we learn a lot from our experiences.

As a one gets old, they acquires knowledge. When we are aging, many information comes in our mind because of the several experiences we have gone through
