Stefano Pavesi (22 January 1779 – 28 July 1850) was a prolific Italian opera composer.
The Grass Withers and the Flower Fades.
Pavesi wrote sixty-six operas. – adapted and translated from Italian Wikipedia

In opera's halcyon days he
Had fame for a while
In the bel canto style,
But it wilted away like a daisy.
