This template may be used in Wiktionary entries to format quotations from a collection of Robert Browning's works entitled Poems (new edition, 1849). It can be used to create a link to online versions of the work at the Internet Archive:

• Volume I (contents).
• Volume II (contents).

The template takes the following parameters:

• |1= or |volume= – mandatory: the volume number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, either |volume=I or |volume=II.
• |chapter= or |poem= – mandatory in some cases: if quoting from one of the "Dramatic Romances and Lyrics" in volume II, the name of the "chapter" or poem. If quoting from one of the poems indicated in the second column of the above table, give the parameter the value indicated in the first column.
• |stanza= or |section= – the stanza or other section number quoted from.
• |2= or |page=, or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) quoted from. If quoting a range of pages, note the following:
  • Separate the first and last page number 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 determine, in most cases, the name of the poem quoted from, and to link to an 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.
