If we ban external programs, is this the shortest?

Note the elegant embedding of newline inside the quotes
(saves a character over \n :-).

Abigail's JAPH 1.0 specification allows writing to stderr
and does not specify the program return code, so using
die would seem to be kosher.

Embedding newlines inside quotes is controversial;
doubtless, some golfers and japhers would seek to
ban this perhaps shady practice.
