شَبَابِهِ — his youth. A noun with a 'his' suffix on the end, carrying both 'youth' and its owner in one word. It sits in the 'of'-style ending because the preposition before it governs it. The 'his' reaches back to the old man, contrasting the youth in which he neglected God with the old age in which he now suffers.
