Usage[edit]

This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from John Dryden's work All for Love: Or, The World Well Lost. A Tragedy (1st edition, 1678). It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

Parameters[edit]

The template takes the following parameters:

  • |chapter= – if quoting from one of the chapters indicated in the second column of the following table, give this parameter the value indicated in the first column:
Parameter value Result
Epilogue Epilogue
Epistle Dedicatory To the Right Honourable Thomas Earl of Danby, […]
Preface Preface
Prologue Prologue to Anthony and Cleopatra
As the epistle dedicatory and preface are unpaginated, use |1= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by the Internet Archive to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://archive.org/details/allforloveorworl00indryd/page/n8/mode/1up, specify |page=8. (The prologue and epilogue are also unpaginated, but the template can determine the URLs.)
  • |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
    • Separate the first and last page numbers of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
    • You must also use |pageref= to indicate the page to be linked to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).
This parameter must be specified to have the template determine the act number (I–V) quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |act= – mandatory in some cases: in most cases, if the page number is specified the template can determine the act number quoted from. However, it is unable to do so if page 15 or 63 is specified, in which case this parameter must be used to specify the act number in uppercase Roman numerals, like this: |act=I.
Act I
pages 1–15 		Act II
pages 15–29 		Act III
pages 30–44 		Act IV
pages 45–63 		Act V
pages 63–78
  • |2=, |text=, or |passage= – the passage to be quoted.
  • |footer= – a comment on the passage quoted.
  • |brackets= – use |brackets=on to surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.

Examples[edit]

    • {{RQ:Dryden All for Love|56|passage=3='Tis not vvell, / Indeed my Lord, 'tis much unkind to me, / To ſhovv this paſſion, this extream '''concernment''' / For an abandon'd, faithleſs Proſtitute.}}
