Anne's House of Dreams

Isaiah 55:1

In chapter 9 of Anne’s House of Dreams, Anne and Gilbert visit the Four Winds lighthouse for the first time to call on their dear friend, Captain Jim the lighthouse keeper.

“Isn’t that a view worth looking at?” said Captain Jim, with a loving, proprietary pride. “Nice and far from the market-place, ain’t it? No buying and selling and getting gain. You don’t have to pay anything–all that sea and sky free–`without money and without price.’ There’s going to be a moonrise purty soon, too–I’m never tired of finding out what a moonrise can be over them rocks and sea and harbor. There’s a surprise in it every time.”

Isaiah 55:1
King James Bible

Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
