E. H. Shepard's shipwrecked old sailor sits on his island beach under the palms, paired with A. A. Milne's opening lines about a sailor with so many things he wanted to do. The verse comes from Milne's 1927 book of poems for children, drawn in Shepard's gentle pen line. For someone with a long list of plans and a sense of humour.
