examination for classical honors, optional to all who have
taken the mathematical honors. --C. A. Bristed.
Tripos paper, a printed list of the successful candidates
for mathematical honors, accompanied by a piece in Latin
verse. There are two of these, designed to commemorate the
two tripos days. The first contains the names of the
wranglers and senior optimes, and the second the names of
the junior optimes. The word tripos is supposed to refer
