The Schmidt edition is likely to become... the
preeminent parallel edition of Piers.... The texts
are valuable and handsomely produced after
years of careful scholarship. Readers of Piers
Plowman will be grateful for Schmidt's efforts,
which future discussion is likely to invoke as
often as Skeat's."
