Hi,

the "one instruction" can be CompoundExpression[]
usual written as infix notation with a ";"
and in

With[{n = 4},
  For[i = 0, i < n, i++,
   Print["I am"];
   Print["a CompoundExpression[]"];
   Print["and so this"];
   Print["one expression."];
   Print[i^2]
   ]
  ]

and

Hold[With[{n = 4},
    For[i = 0, i < n, i++,
     Print["I am"];
     Print["a CompoundExpression[]"];
     Print["and so this"];
     Print["one expression."];
     Print[i^2]
     ]
    ]] // FullForm

show this.

Regards
   Jens
