6. 4. 8 [SAMPLE REFERENCES]
Citing Literary and Religious Works (MLA 253-4)
In a reference to a classic work, such as a novel or a play,
that is available in several editions, it is helpful to provide more
information than just a page number from the edition used.
In citing classic verse plays and poems, omit page numbers
altogether and cite by division (act, scene, canto, book,
part) and line, with periods separating the various numbers.
example: "Iliad 9.19" refers to book 9, line 19, of Homer's Iliad.
If the play or verse is considered a standard or classic
(see lists in 6.7), then you may omit the bibliographical
information on the Works Cited page.
If you are citing only line numbers [for poetry], do not use the
abbreviation 'l' or 'll.', which can be confused with [page] numerals.
Instead, initially use the word 'line' or 'lines' and then, having
established that the numbers designate lines, give the numbers only.
