This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Joseph Hall's work The Breathings of the Devout Soul published in The Works of the Right Reverend Father in God, Joseph Hall, D.D. (1st edition, 1808, volume VI); the 1st edition (London: [s.n.], 1648; →OCLC) is not currently available online. It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work at Google Books.

The template takes the following parameters:

• |section= – the section number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, from |section=I to |section=XLIX.
• |1= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: 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=317–318.
  • 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).

You must specify this information to have the template link to the online version of the work.

• |2=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the work.
• |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.
