289. (18) They are adopted as means of reconciliation. Between partners who for various reasons are discordant in mind, intermittent states occur of disagreement and trust, of estrangement and union, indeed of quarreling and making up, thus of reconciliation. This is something that is known in the world; and also that their reconciliations are effected by shows of apparent friendship. There are also reconciliations effected after periods of separation which are not so sporadic and transitory.
