Translation

[Meaning] peace. "O reconciliation, companion to the beautiful Aphrodite and to the beloved Graces!"¹ [sc. The term is used here] since weddings and festivals are held in an occasion of peace. Or because [peace] is most sweet and pleasing.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Διαλλαγή· εἰρήνη. ὦ Κύπριδι τῇ καλῇ καὶ Χάρισι ταῖς φίλαις ξύντροφε διαλλαγή. ἐπειδὴ γάμοι καὶ ἑορταὶ ἐν καιρῷ τῆς εἰρήνης ἄγονται. ἢ ὅτι ἡδίστη καὶ ἐπίχαρίς ἐστιν.
