So well had they recommended themselves to Lady Middleton, so agreeable had their assiduities made them to her, that though Lucy was certainly not so elegant, and her sister not even genteel, she was as ready as Sir John to ask them to spend a week or two in Conduit Street; and it happened to be particularly convenient to the Miss Steeles, as soon as the Dashwoods' invitation was known, that their visit should begin a few days before the party took place.
Tan buena impresión habían logrado crear de sí mismas ante lady Middleton, tan gratas se le habían hecho por sus infatigables atenciones, que aunque Lucy de ninguna manera era elegante, y su hermana ni siquiera bien educada, estaba tan dispuesta como sir John a invitarlas a pasar una o dos semanas en Conduit Street; y apenas supieron de la invitación de los Dashwood, las señoritas Steele encontraron que les era muy conveniente llegar unos pocos días antes del fijado para la fiesta.
