Circle
The movement of falling with the false edge to the opponent's ear in order to draw a parry from them, then letting the blade fall beside you and rotate over again in a big circle, only to cut an extended overhead cut (Oberhauw) with a side step. The false edge cut is a useful deceit which shows up in Meyer quite often.
An example of the circle can be seen in the first technique of the Crossguard parry set.
