The 2nd line of text is not showing up.

After I compile and save the work, I try running java Introductions in console and the only result I get back is the first line of code I compiled. I have C+P my code so far below. Thanks for the help!

import java.io.Console;

public class Introductions {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Console console = System.console();
    // Welcome to the Introductions program!  Your code goes below here
    console.printf("Hello, my name is brenton");
    console.printf("Brenton is trying to write java");

} }

Don't worry I worked it out, had to remove the ";" from the first line.
