This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote from two versions of Joseph Hall's work Contemplations upon the Principall Passages of the Holy Storie: the 1st edition (1612–1626, 8 volumes), and a version in a collection of Hall's works entitled The Works of the Right Reverend Father in God, Joseph Hall, D.D. (1808, volumes I and II). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at Google Books and the Internet Archive:

The template takes the following parameters:

1st edition (1612–1626)

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=II, |volume=V, or |volume=VI. Unfortunately, the remaining volumes are not currently available online. If they become available and you need help adding them to the template, leave a message on the talk page or at "Wiktionary:Grease pit".

1808 version

• |version= – mandatory: if quoting from the version in The Works of the Right Reverend Father in God, Joseph Hall, D.D. (1808), specify |version=Works.
• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.

Both versions

• |2= or |chapter= – the name of the chapter quoted from.
• |3= 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.

• |4=, |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.
