Arthur Sullivan (13 May 1842 – 22 November 1900) was a respected composer in a Mendelssohnian vein, but he was also, of course, the musical half of Gilbert and Sullivan.

The Mikado has come under fire
As sensitive persons inquire
Whether folks from the West
Should be made up and dressed
In satirical Eastern attire.
