Possible missing sense

[edit]

Simply meaning to "square things" or set things straight. I saw it in Jeffrey Archer's False Impression (not a good book!): "But I am bound to ask how you intend to square the circle with your former boss. It is clear to me that Mr Fenston is more interested in holding on to such a valuable asset than having the debt cleared." Equinox 18:08, 25 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
