Lady Bracknell:  I'm sorry if we are a little late, Algernon, but I was obliged to call on dear Lady Harbury. I hadn't been there since her poor husband's death.

Correct option is D.

Explanation:

The given excerpt is taken from the play written by Oscar Wilde, "The Importance of Being Earnest: A Trivial Comedy for Serious People". The play was first staged on February 14, 1895, in London at St. James Theater. And first published in 1899.

The given excerpt appears in Act 1, Scene 2 of the play. The scene opens with the entry of Lady Bracknell on the stage, about whom, Algernon was talking about in Scene 1 of Act 1. Lady Bracknell makes her entry while gossiping about one of her friend Lady Harbury, whose husband has died and says that Lady Harbury now looks twenty years younger after the death of her husband. The theme of the play which is pictured in this scene is of marriage. The whole play raises a debatable question about marriage whether the nature of marriage is pleasant or not.
