Yes, Nevada. NEVADA (goes and sits by fire rubbing his hands and warming them). I like this, I like to sit before a fire: I can see faces in the fire,--her's and the little one. See the tall flame back there; that's her face, but oh so haggard and pale! She thinks I will never come; and see, there's a bright little flame dancing up towards her, just as the little child used to climb up into her lap; and there's the little one's face now, and her little fingers beckoning to me. Yes, yes, I'll come, I'll come, with the gold to make us all happy.
