　　It was Lady Windermere's last party before the spring holidays. There were many more guests in Bentinck House – her London home – than usual. There were important men from the government in their best suits. All the beautiful women were wearing their most expensive dresses, and at the end of the biggest, longest room stood Princess Sophia of Carlsrühe, a short, heavy little lady with small black eyes and big rings on her fingers. She spoke loudly in bad French and laughed at everything that people said to her.
　　It was a wonderful party. There were so many different and interesting people there. Sweet ladies from old families talked with angry young men. A number of rich old artists stood on the stairs and talked together like poor art students. It was one of Lady Windermere's best nights.
　　Lady Windermere looked very fine with her clear white neck, her large blue eyes, like the bluest of spring flowers, and her gold hair. It was a strong gold colour, not cheap yellow, but the rich gold of sunlight.
　　As a young woman Lady Windermere had a number of romantic adventures, which made people think that she was interesting. She married three times, but because she only had one lover through all those years, the world soon stopped telling terrible stories about her. She was now forty, had no children, and enjoyed pleasing herself, which is the secret of staying young.
　　She was pleased when Princess Sophia stayed for hours. When the Princess left at half past eleven, Lady Windermere began talking to her old friend the Duchess of Paisley.
