Had Mrs. Dashwood, like her daughter, heard Willoughby's story from himself--had she witnessed his distress, and been under the influence of his countenance and his manner, it is probable that her compassion would have been greater.
Si, como su hija, la señora Dashwood hubiera escuchado la historia de Willoughby de sus propios labios; si hubiera sido testigo de su angustia y experimentado el influjo de su semblante y actitud, es probable que su compasión hubiera sido mayor.
