Com*pos"er (?), n.

One who composes; an author. Specifically, an author of a piece of music.

If the thoughts of such authors have nothing in them, they at least . . . show an honest industry and a good intention in the composer. Addison.

His [Mozart's] most brilliant and solid glory is founded upon his talents as a composer. Moore (Encyc. of Mus. ).

2.

One who, or that which, quits or calms; one who adjust a difference.

Sweet composes of the pensive sul. Gay.
