It is false that dive and five are a pair of eye rhymes.
Eye rhymes refers to words which are written similarly, but have different pronunciations. For example, love and move - as you can see, their spelling differs only in one letter, but their pronunciation is not similar at all. This is not the case in dive and five - they are both written and pronounced similarly.
If you are referring to this point: Oscar
Wilde uses humor to critique society and show that there is too much concern
about coming from a proper family.
I believe the correct answer is: “To
be born, or at any rate bred, in a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not,
seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life . .
.”
In his dramatic work “The Importance
of Being Earnest”, Oscar Wild often uses irony and humor to critique the norms
and “moral” of the society in Victorian era. One of the examples for that is
this line:
“To be born, or at any rate bred, in
a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt
for the ordinary decencies of family life . . .”
As it shows the needless concern of
the type of the bag Ernest was found in, but which indicate the wealth of the
family to Lady Bracknell. Ernest states that there is no contempt for the
ordinary decencies of family life when you are born in a hand-bag, no matter if
it was large, black leather hand-bag, with handles to it or not.
