Read the following excerpt from ACT III and Jack. But my dear Lady Bracknell, the matter is entirely in your own hands. The moment you consent
to my marriage with Gwendolyn, I will most gladly allow your nephew to form an alliance with my
ward.
Lady Bracknell. [Rising and drawing herself up.) You must be quite aware that what you propose is
out of the question.
Jack. Then a passionate celibacy is all that any of us can look forward to.
Lady Bracknell. That is not the destiny I propose for Gwendolen. Algernon, of course, can choose for
himself. [Pulls out her watch.) Come, dear, (Gwendolen rises) we have already missed five, if not six,
trains. To miss any more might expose us to comment on the platform.
Who is Jack referring to when he states he will "gladly allow your nephew to form an alliance with
my ward."?
Who is your nephew" and who is "my ward"?
Ernest and Gwendolyn
O Lady Bracknell and Algernon
O Ernest and Cecily
