Trinity College - Further to RJ's letter - 'I do not yet see, supposing Burges [Henry Burges] to go to another college, which will be best for him, but at any rate he will have to read mathematics to have much chance...His nervousness is one thing much against him, but even if he should get over that, I should doubt his success'. WW has sent RJ a few examination papers but cannot send the papers of the Classical Tripos: 'It was considered rather too hard an examination - the greater part, of course, was translation'. The Trinity papers are not all first year - the Homer is always a second or third year subject. RJ could look at Monk's [James H. Monk] published collection 'called Cambridge Classical Examinations where you may find more and have the satisfaction of abusing the author into the bargain'.
