*Paradoxes A Table wherein Senecas Paradoxes and Other Stoicall Vanities are Set Downe, to the End that Such as are of Weakest Iudgement and Apprehension, may both Know, and be More Circumspect in Iudging of Them (by Lodge)
As the titles above marked with an asterisk (*) are unpaginated, use |2= or |page= to specify the "page number" assigned by Google Books to the URL of the webpage to be linked to. For example, if the URL is https://books.google.com/books?id=e-pDAQAAMAAJ&pg=PP11, specify |page=11. ("In Momum" is also unpaginated, but the template can determine the URL.)
  • |argument= – if quoting from an argument written by Lipsius, specify |argument=1 or |argument=yes.
  • |1= or |chapter=, and/or |chaptername= – if a title is divided into chapters, use |1= or |chapter= to specify the chapter number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals, and/or |chaptername= the name of the chapter.
  • |epistle= – in the title "The Epistles of Lucius Annæus Seneca the Philosopher", use |epistle= to specify the epistle number quoted from in uppercase Roman numerals
  • |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 the title, and in some cases the book number, quoted from, and to link to the online version of the work.
  • |column= or |columns= – if quoting from a page divided into columns, the column number(s) quoted from, either |column=1 or |column=2. If quoting from both columns, either omit this parameter or separate the column numbers with an en dash, like this: |columns=1–2.
  • |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.
