"The wild boar of the forest broke it,
every wild beast could graze off it."
Ps 79 (80), from the office of Lauds for Maundy Thursday

Certainly, depredation by wild boars and wild beasts has become depressingly commonplace. We therefore pray with special fervor that the Lord of Hosts look down from heaven and tend this vine.
