What is the relationship between external and internal composition in a cartesian closed category?
Is there a relationship between model theory and category theory?Is the category of affine schemes (over a fixed field) Cartesian closed?What is the product in the 2-category of spans?Functorial choice of pullbacks in a locally cartesian closed $(infty,1)$-categoryDo the “funny” tensor product and the cartesian product satisfy any algebraic “laws”?What is the difference between internal presheaves and presheaves on a total space?Comonads and the category of SetsWhy does vertical multiplication in 2-groups not follow the same order as horizontal one when constructed from crossed modules?What are the internal categories in an endofunctor categoryThe category of Multisets and Spans: morphism composition and tensor product

Denote "the" category of sets and functions by $S$. The hom set of functions from set $X$ to set $Y$ is denoted by $S(X,Y)$.
If $C$ is a cartesian closed category denote by $C(x,y)$ the set of morphisms from $x$ to $y$ in $C$. In such a $C$ there exists a natural bijection between $C(x,y)$ and $C(1,y^x)$. In a sense, $y^x$ reifies inside $C$ the set $C(x,y)$ in $S$. Both $S(1,C(x,y))$ and $C(1,y^x)$ are sets, and in particular, if $x=1$, then both $S(1,C(1,y))$ and $C(1,y^1)$ are sets.
Anyhow, how does the "external" law of composition $C(x,y) times C(y,z) to C(x,z)$ in $S$ of $C$ relate to the "internal" law of composition $y^x times z^y to z^x$ in $C$? In summary, does the internal composition "reify" the external composition?

The internal composition $y^xtimes z^yto z^x$ induces, by composition, $C(1,y^xtimes z^y)to C(1,z^x)$. The domain of this morphism is naturally equivalent to $C(1,y^x)times C(1,z^y)$, by definition of product in $C$. So we get a function $C(1,y^x)times C(1,z^y)to C(1,z^x)$, which, as you noted, is equivalent to $C(x,y)times C(y,z)to C(x,z)$. And that's the external composition.

The internal composition $y^xtimes z^yto z^x$ induces, by composition, $C(1,y^xtimes z^y)to C(1,z^x)$. The domain of this morphism is naturally equivalent to $C(1,y^x)times C(1,z^y)$, by definition of product in $C$. So we get a function $C(1,y^x)times C(1,z^y)to C(1,z^x)$, which, as you noted, is equivalent to $C(x,y)times C(y,z)to C(x,z)$. And that's the external composition.
