Vigil's documentation proclaimeth as sooth þt after a quantitie of runs sufficient it shall holde þt such lines as remaine shall not recant their oathes; þt considering such guarantie may be shewn by simple artifice to be reducible to þe questione whether a programme, given such a tale of inputs as might be given it, shall in sooth halte after some mortal span, or else shall run on interminable, which questione is known by þe wise to be undecidable by worldy art; þt, given þe existence of such reduction, Vigil's writ may soothly be seene to fail of its oathes; therefore, þe line þt shall declare such false promise hath been duly punished in þe name of Almighty God.

The good Sir MrAccident misreads; Vigil makes no claim that it can be known when, or if, a sufficient quantity of runs have been made.

Mine entreatie hath lingered overlong bereft of merit; better it had been closed yesteryear. An it were done when 'tis done, 'twere well it were done quickly!
