Usage
This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from a collected edition of John Milton's prose works entitled A Complete Collection of the Historical, Political, and Miscellaneous Works of John Milton (1698). First editions of many of these are difficult to find; this is an early reprint from the Internet Archive which uses continuous pagination across the two volumes (specifying the page number will automatically choose the correct volume).
There is also a separately numbered Volume III, but it only includes works in Latin.
Where a specific quotation template exists (for example, {{RQ:Milton Of Reformation}}
), use it instead of this template.
Parameters
The template takes the following parameters:
|1=
or |work=
– mandatory: the work reprinted. If the parameter is given the value indicated in the first column of the following table, the template will display what is indicated in the second column. If you do not specify one of these, please also use |year=
to specify the year in which the work was originally published. If |year=
is omitted, the template defaults to "a. 1675", the year after Milton's death.

|chapter=
– if the work is divided into chapters, the chapter number in uppercase Roman numerals, or the name of the chapter as the case may be.
|2=
or |page=
, or |pages=
– mandatory in some cases: the page number(s) of the work. If using |pages=
to quote 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 an online version of the work.
Note the following pagination issues:
- Volume I:
- "The Life of John Milton" is separately paginated from the rest of the work; the page number restarts from 1 after that chapter.
- There is one unnumbered page after each of page 271, 272, 273, and 441. Specify these pages as
|page=271A
, |page=272A
, |page=273A
, and |page=441A
respectively.
- Volume II:
- After page 528, page numbers 525–528 are used again. Specify these pages as
|page=525A
to |page=528A
.
- After page 568, page numbers 545–568 are used again. Specify these pages as
|page=545A
to |page=568A
.
|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.
