After this had been settled, Colonel Brandon began to talk of his own advantage in securing so respectable and agreeable a neighbour, and THEN it was that he mentioned with regret, that the house was small and indifferent;--an evil which Elinor, as Mrs. Jennings had supposed her to do, made very light of, at least as far as regarded its size.
Tras haberse acordado esto, el coronel Brandon comenzó a hablar de las ventajas que para él representaba haber conseguido un vecino tan respetable y agradable; y fue entonces que lamentó que la casa fuera pequeña y de regular calidad, un problema al cual Elinor, tal como la señora Jennings supuso que había hecho, no dio mayor importancia, al menos en lo concerniente al tamaño de la vivienda.
