Words of Wisdom

I received this very supportive message from my medieval supervisor today:

"Greetings! And the very best of luck in Tripos. Think not of your own unease, but spare a thought for the poor examiners faced with the weight of your learning. Be confident: think how much you know now that you did not know a year ago ... I shall be thinking of you all. Charles"

The of my learning? Weight? I do pity the examiners, but not because my learning is a bit on the heavy side... if anything, it's positively anorexic!
