Lovers are very quickly reconciled. You will see a pair of lovers seeming to have reached the extreme limit of contrariety, to the point where you would never expect them to be reconciled; yet in next to no time you will observe them to have become again the best of friends; silenced are those mutual reproaches, vanished is that disharmony; soon they are laughing again and playfully sporting together.
