(1848); the 1st edition (London: W. Wilson for Henry Herringman, , 1665; →OCLC) is not currently available online. The template can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at the Internet Archive.

|1=

, and chaptername –
|chapter=An Advertisement Touching the IV. Section
, and so on.|1=
or |chapter=

– 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.{{RQ:Boyle Occasional Reflections|chapter=XVIII|chaptername=Upon a Giddiness Occasion'd by Looking Attentively on a Rapid Stream|page=277|passage=hilst I was thus musing, and attentively looking upon the Water, to try whether I could discover the Bottom, it happened to me, as it often does to those that gaze too stedfastly on swift Streams, that my Head began to grow '''giddy''', and my Leggs to stagger towards the River, into which questionless I had fell, if ''Philaretus'' had not seasonably and obligingly prevented it.}}
