Caesura and Syntax in Piers Plowman A.10.210.

The article focuses on the reinterpretation of a line in William Langland's "Piers Plowman" concerning false people and heirs, particularly the correction of an emendation by George Kane in the manuscript. Topics include the analysis of the line's structure, the correction of a misinterpretation of the word "alse," and the implications of caesura placement in Middle English alliterative verse, urging future editors to mark the caesura for a better understanding of the poetic meter.
