Outline
• contrast (v.):
  1. A. Trans.: confĕro, compăro, contendo: as, c. the licentiousness of the one with the temperance of the other, confer hujus libidines cum illius continentia, Cic.: v. compare. Contendo denotes the most exact comparison, but not necessarily contrast any more than the others. More precisely perh., *duarum rerum oppositionem monstrare; duas res conferre atque opponere inter se; (opponere is simply to set one thing off against another).
  2. B. Intrans.: to be opposed to: discrĕpo, 1 (to differ greatly): cf. Hor. Od. 1, 27, 6: or expr. with pass. of verbs under (A): as, there is a vice which c.s with [is set off against] every virtue, omni virtuti vitium contrario nomine opponitur, Cic.: v. to differ.
