I've been alive for four and a half centuries, and I cannot die.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker claims to have lived for four and a half centuries and to be unable to die. The two statements combine exceptional longevity with an existence that has no apparent endpoint. The words establish immortality as the speaker’s condition without saying whether they welcome or resent it.
