And then he was a shrieking blaze, a jumping, sprawling gibbering manikin, no longer human or shot on continuous pulse of liquid fire on him. There was a hiss like a great mouthful of spittle banging a red-hot stove, a bubbling and frothing as if salt had been poured over a monstrous black snail to cause a terrible liquidation and a boiling over of yellow foam. Montag shut his eyes, shouted, shouted, and fought to get his hands at his ears to clamp and to cut away the sound.

I can't see, but I can feel all of my skin that was now under this cover of flames bubbling up and popping and sizzling. I just can't take the pain and fall to ground in agony."
