 The Mavens' Word of the Day
The withers (a singular referent, but in -s and always taking a plural verb) are the highest part of the back, found at the base of the neck bewteen the shoulder blades, of a horse or other quadruped.
The wring here is an application of the usual sense 'to twist', meaning something like 'to injure' (thought not necessary through twisting--compare the expression "it wrings my heart").
The usual explanation for the origin of withers, which is first attested in the late sixteenth century, is that it's from the obsolete wither 'against' (ultimately related to with), in reference to the strain against the withers when a horse pulls a load.
