Okay, this time it’s about the Pope’s arms.
In an article in the National Post, Father Raymond J. de Souza notes the removal on Wednesday, March 6, 2013, of recently-retired Pope Benedict XVI’s arms from the garden in front of the Vatican Governor's Palace, leaving the crossed keys and tiara above the now dirt-colored, empty shield shape awaiting the election of a new Pope. With a new Pope in place, the gardeners will place his arms in the currently empty shield.
