The point is to provide a mechanism by which one inspired to write music
in response for, or as a setting of, a text subject to copyright can
compose the music in a manner which does not violate US statutes. For
my purposes here, I am assuming that anyone who decided to use the text
in a performance would be motivated to obtain a copy, and if use were
anticipated in a situation where performance royalties were required,
would deal with those in an appropriate manner, as well.
