Algernon. You’ll never break off our engagement again, Cecily?
Cecily. I don’t think I could break it off now that I have actually met you. Besides, of course, there is the question of your name.
Algernon. Yes, of course. [Nervously.]
Cecily. You must not laugh at me, darling, but it had always been a girlish dream of mine to love some one whose name was Ernest. [Algernon rises, Cecily also.] There is something in that name that seems to inspire absolute confidence. I pity any poor married woman whose husband is not called Ernest.
–The Importance of Being Earnest,
Oscar Wilde

Explanation:

A conclusion is considered as a final thought that summarizes the information of a text or any other resource. To begin with, the excerpt by Oscar Wilde presents a conversation between two characters Algernon and Cecily who seem to be in the beginning of a romantic relationship, while there are few words by Algernon the other character Cecily is quite expressive and showing Algernon her perspective about love including that she seems to be profoundly in love and she wishes the man is call Ernest because she has always dream about  having husband called in this way, these details show Cecily is quite a romantic person who would give everything for love and dreams about having a long relationship with this man which means the main point of the passage or the conclusion of it is to show mainly the way Cecily is a hopeless romantic through her perspectives about love.
