Â Their dialogue shifts to discuss the daughter's potential husband, and she insists that reserved men rarely make good husbands. Â One character reminisces about his war memories fighting under the Duke of Marlborough and Eugene of Savoy, though those remembrances are interrupted by requests for punch and for supper; that character is put off by the manner of his guests, who, unbeknownst to him, believe that they are at an inn and not at their destination. Â However, Tony Lumpkin's prank does not stop the courtship of Marlow and Kate Hardcastle. Â For 10 points, name this comic play by Oliver Goldsmith.
