by W.S. Gilbert. Brilliant Indeed. (From The Pirates of Penzance, of course.)
Speaking of G&S, this limerick by Isaac Asimov has always amused me:
There once was a curious Persian
Who had an unusual perversion
He thought that the part
That was words was by Art
And was sure that the tunes were Gilbertian
(from memory, so perhaps not word-for-word).
