Template:RQ:Emerson Selected Poems/documentation
Usage
[edit]This template may be used on Wiktionary entry pages to quote Ralph Waldo Emerson's work Selected Poems (new edition, 1876), which contains poems previously published in Poems (1847) and May-Day and Other Pieces (1867) with some additions and omissions. It can be used to create a link to an online version of the work (contents) at Google Books (archived at the Internet Archive).
Where a poem has been published in either {{RQ:Emerson Poems}} or {{RQ:Emerson May-Day}}, use those quotation templates instead of this one.
