His father had strictly forbidden
The practicing young Handel did in
The attic at night
By a dim candlelight
On a clavichord secretly hidden.

Discomfort Ye
A choir announced their new season,
Which caused a revolt for this reason:
It said they would try a
Break from Messiah,
Which patrons regarded as treason.

As an honor it isn’t too shabby --
Internment in Westminster Abbey -
But his heirs, at the service,
Despondent and nervous,
Kept asking how much would the tab be.
