Beneath is a statement in Latin apparently showing that the will was probated at Malmesbury on 7 May 1690. 

     Daniel Vines (d. 1689) and Jane Vines
         John 1 (b.1 Nov 1687)
         Daniel (b.18 Mar 1689)
     Thomas Vines of Marriage Park

Note: Jane was bequeathed use of the house contents (provided she didn't remarry) until the next Lady Day, when they were to be sold and the proceeds invested for the two boys.
No provision was made for her; apparently the living costs for herself and the two babies would come from the boys benefits under the will, while she cared for them. However if both boys died before reaching 21 years their inheritances were to go to the children of their uncle Thomas Vines of Marriage Park, except for ten pounds for Jane; a golden handshake for bearing and raising the boys? Janes welfare was in the hands of the will executor, Thomas of Marriage Park. 

In Clive Henly's index of baptisms and burials at Dauntsey we see the following subsequent events:

It is unknown whether Jane eventually married Robert Lewis, but probably not; George was baptised and buried as a Lewis in 1703, but Jane was buried as a Vines widow in 1735. 
Perhaps Thomas, who was executor of the will, was pragmatic and saw that two babies of his brother would be a nuisance to him if she insisted on moving on, and perhaps blessed any alliance she might make so long as she kept and raised them, even if she remained unmarried to derive the costs under their bequests. I wonder if Robert Lewis was also a local farmer. 

Lady Day was the first day of the year, not 1st January as now but, from the twelfth century to 1752, 25th March. It is close to the spring equinox. This holiday celebrated the Annunciation, when the archangel Gabriel announced to the Virgin Mary that she was pregnant.
