Louis Wain Fact #11:
Wain wrote an opera composed entirely of choruses, quartettes and duets, amongst other compositions, during a time in which he was considering musicianship before becoming an illustrator. The whereabouts of these compositions have yet to surface, but later accounts exist of him entertaining guests with wild piano improvisations.

Molly was a Mermaid
Living in the sea
And a happier Mermaid
There could never be
On her fifteen birthday,
Father Neptune said,
"What d'you think I've brought you,
Molly little maid?
Here's a fine new motor
So just jump inside,
And, my dear, I'll take you
For a splendid ride!"
