6. (a.) Turned about; reversed in order or relation; reciprocal; as, a converse proposition.

7. (n.) A proposition which arises from interchanging the terms of another, as by putting the predicate for the subject, and the subject for the predicate; as, no virtue is vice, no vice is virtue.

8. (n.)
