The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Lady Windermere's Fan by Oscar Wilde: sweet lips of hers were on your account, and I hate to see you next
her. You sully the innocence that is in her. [Moves L.C.] And
then I used to think that with all your faults you were frank and
honest. You are not.
MRS. ERLYNNE. Why do you say that?
LORD WINDERMERE. You made me get you an invitation to my wife's
ball.
MRS. ERLYNNE. For my daughter's ball - yes.
LORD WINDERMERE. You came, and within an hour of your leaving the
house you are found in a man's rooms - you are disgraced before
every one. [Goes up stage C.]
