You play a game.

You work according to the rules, but don't say, afterwards
give him a day to get out of sight.

You ask me
if he will make it
if a day, an eternity, an hour will be enough.

I repeat what you count out and see that it works.
How it fits within the rules -

Don't move again, put a blindfold on
hide ourselves.
We are given it all in all.
