Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms Psalm 22
““Save Me from the lion’s mouth:” save Me from the mouth of the kingdom of this world: “and my humility from the horns of the unicorns” (ver. 21).” — editor's note: [The original Hebrew seems to me a foreshadowing of the Romans, as Peres (Dan. v. 28) points to the Persians.—C.]
