Excerpt from Echoes From Kottabos
Another distinguishing feature of the present collection is the series called Poems Written in Discipleship, which were composed as affectionate studies or sketches, in the manner of some of the best known English poets, but in which the element of parody has no place.

Excerpt from Echoes From Kottabos
Thus thirty-six numbers came out under the original editors, after which Kottabos, which had enjoyed a longer lease of life than falls, as a rule, to the lot of College magazines, ceased to appear for some half-dozen years. In 1888 it was revived under the editorship of J. B. Bury, then a Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin, now Regius Professor of Modern History in the University of Cambridge. The first volume of the second series was completed in 1891, and a second, under the editorship of Rev. George Wilkins, Fell. Trin. Coll., in 1895. Thus fifty numbers have been available for the present editors to choose from, and the interval between the first and the last number of Kottabos has been about twenty-five years.

We must own to having borrowed our title from that delightful volume Echoes from the Oxford Magazine; but we hope this will not be taken as an invitation to readers to compare the two collections. To go no further, in one respect our method is quite different from that of the Oxford editors. They have included only verses of a comic (or at least serio-comic) complexion. Many, if not most, of ours wholly lack this character. Then, our contributors are numerous; while twenty-eight of the fifty-five pieces in the Oxford volume are the work of two writers, and all the contributions are for more deeply tinged than ours with the local colour and academic spirit.
