Two ways:

* Use render(), and make sure the variables are already in the view
script scope, or assigned to the view. In terms of having them in the
view script scope:

<?php
$arg1 = 'value1';
echo $this->render('template1.phtml'); // template can now refer to $arg1

* Pass in all view variables + locally scoped variables:

<?php
$vars = $this->getVars();
$vars['arg1'] = 'value1';
echo $this->partial('template1', $vars);
