The invention claimed is: 1. An optical-waveguide-clad composition comprising: a bisphenol type epoxy compound (A); and an epoxy compound (B) containing at least one epoxy compound represented by the following formulae (3) to (8), and having a molecular weight of 350 to 2400: where: p represents 1 to 10, where: p represents 1 to 15, and q represents 1 to 5, where: p represents 1 to 5, where: p represents 1 to 15, where: p represents 5 to 10. 2. The optical-waveguide-clad composition according to claim 1 , wherein a content of the bisphenol type epoxy compound (A) is 50 parts by mass or more and 90 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of all epoxy compounds contained in the optical-waveguide-clad composition, and a content of the epoxy compound (B) is 5 parts by mass or more and 30 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of all the epoxy compounds contained in the optical-waveguide-clad composition. 3. The optical-waveguide-clad composition according to claim 1 , wherein a cured product of the optical-waveguide-clad composition has a tear strength of 60 N/mm or higher. 4. The optical-waveguide-clad composition according to claim 1 , wherein a number of cycles until a crack is generated in the cured product of the optical-waveguide-clad composition is 1000 cycles or more, with steps of holding the cured product at −55° C. for 15 minutes, then raising the temperature to 125° C., holding the cured product at 125° C. for 15 minutes, and cooling the cured product to −55° C. as one cycle. 5. An optical-waveguide-clad dry film comprising a layer containing the optical-waveguide-clad composition according to claim 1 . 6. An optical waveguide comprising: a core; and a clad that covers the core, wherein the clad contains a cured product of the optical-waveguide-clad composition according claim 1 .
