Etymology: < Latin caesūra ‘cutting, metrical pause’, < caes- participial stem of caedĕre to cut. The earlier form was immediately < French césure. (Some writers appear to have erroneously associated it with cease.)

a. In Greek and Latin prosody: the division of a metrical foot between two words, especially in certain recognized places near the middle of the line.In Dactylic Hexameter and Iambic Trimeter this usually occurs in the third foot (penthemimeral cæsura), but there may be subsidiary cæsuras as well; in the line Tityre | tu patu | -læ recu | -bans sub | tegmine | fagi, the main (penthemimeral) cæsura is after -læ, and there are subsidiary ones after tu and -ans.
