Is this quote done correctly?
Yes. The direct quote is more than 4 lines, introduced and indented. It is cited correctly.
Note that quotation marks are NOT used around an indented quote, and the period comes before the in-text citation. That is opposite of a short quote, where the period comes after the in-text citation, following MLA Style.
Check the style manual you are following for punctuation guidance when direct quoting.
