Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from an English translation by T. S. of Leonardus Lessius's work Hygiasticon: Or, The Right Course of Preserving Life and Health unto Extream Old Age (1st edition, 1634); also included are George Herbert's translation of Luigi Cornaro's work A Treatise of Temperance and Sobrietie, and a translation of an anonymous work A Discourse Translated out of Italian, that a Spare Diet is Better than a Splendid and Sumptuous. It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

As the titles marked with an asterisk (*) are unpaginated, use |2= 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/bim_early-english-books-1641-1700_hygiasticon-or-the-rig_lessius-leonardus_1634/page/n2/mode/1up, specify |page=2. (Apart from Hygiasticon, A Treatise of Temperance and Sobrietie, and [A] Spare Diet is Better than a Splendid and Sumptuous, the other titles are also unpaginated but the template can determine the URL.)

• |chapter= and |chaptername= – if quoting from Hygiasticon, use |chapter= to specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, and |chaptername= the name of the chapter.
• |2= or |page=; or |pages= – mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) quoted from. When quoting a range of pages, note the following:
  • Separate the first and last pages of the range with an en dash, like this: |pages=10–11.
  • You must also use |pageref= to specify the page number that the template should link to (usually the page on which the Wiktionary entry appears).

This parameter must be specified to have the template link to the online version of the work.

The page numbering restarts from 1 from A Treatise of Temperance and Sobrietie.

• |3=, |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.
