[Enter **Canon Chasuble**.]
 * Chasuble**. And how are we this morning? Miss Prism, you are, I trust, well?
 * Cecily**. Miss Prism has just been complaining of a slight headache. I think it would do her so much good to have a short stroll with you in the Park, Dr. Chasuble.
 * Miss Prism**. Cecily, I have not mentioned anything about a headache.
 * Cecily**. No, dear Miss Prism, I know that, but I felt instinctively that you had a headache. Indeed I was thinking about that, and not about my German lesson, when the Rector came in.
 * Chasuble**. I hope, Cecily, you are not inattentive.
 * Cecily**. Oh, I am afraid I am.
 * Chasuble**. That is strange. Were I fortunate enough to be Miss Prism’s pupil, I would hang upon her lips. [**Miss Prism** glares.] I spoke metaphorically. - My metaphor was drawn from bees. Ahem! Mr. Worthing, I suppose, has not returned from town yet?
