The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Lord Arthur Savile's Crime, etc. by Oscar Wilde: curious coincidence that Sybil, for whose sake he had gone through
all that terrible anxiety, should have been the first to remind him
of it.
'Of course you can have it, Sybil. I gave it to poor Lady Clem
myself.'
'Oh! thank you, Arthur; and may I have the BONBON too? I had no
notion that Lady Clementina liked sweets. I thought she was far
too intellectual.'
Lord Arthur grew deadly pale, and a horrible idea crossed his mind.
'BONBON, Sybil? What do you mean?' he said in a slow, hoarse
voice.
