Usage

This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Samuel Purchas's work Purchas His Pilgrim. Microcosmus, or The Historie of Man. (2nd edition, 1627); the 1st edition (1619; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Google Books.

Parameters

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from. If quoting from "The Preface to the Reader" or "To the Reader", specify |chapter=Preface or |chapter=To the Reader respectively. As these chapters are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=oYFnAAAAcAAJ&pg=PP15, specify |page=15.
• |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 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 link to the online version of the work.

• |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.
