Jack. [Really definitely.] Sure, Lady Bracknell. I happened to be within the a hands-bag-a somewhat large, black colored fabric hands-bag, with handles in order to it-a normal hands-handbag indeed.

Lady Bracknell. The newest range is actually immaterial. Mr. Worthing, I confess I feel a little bewildered regarding what you’ve just told me.

Algernon. Don’t they go off okay, dated boy? You don’t imply to say Gwendolen refused your? I am aware it’s a way this lady has. This woman is always not wanting some one. In my opinion it’s very ill-natured away from their.

Jack. Oh, Gwendolen is really as proper because the a good trivet. As much as she’s alarmed, our company is engaged. Their own mom is actually well unbearable. Never ever found instance good Gorgon . . . I don’t actually know just what an effective Gorgon is like, but I’m quite sure Woman Bracknell is but one. Nevertheless, the woman is a beast, without being a myth, that is rather unjust . . . I beg your pardon, Algy, Perhaps I should not discuss their sibling in this means before you can.
