Who wrote this fiendish "Rite of Spring"?

H. Cowell

Who wrote this fiendish "Rite of Spring"?

What right had he to write the thing?

Against our helpless ears to fling

Its crash, clash, cling, clang, bing, bang bing?

And then to call it "Rite of SPRING,"

The season when on joyous wing

The birds melodious carols sing

And harmony's in every thing!

He who could write the "Rite of Spring,"

If I be right by right should swing!
