Couplet
On one special case
The firemen raced.
To a house where the books weren’t alone
A woman was found there sitting alone.
“Tonight, someone had slipped” Montag thought
The woman was not what they had sought.
The others threw books down for burning
However, Montag’s mind was turning.
He “plunged the book back under his arm”
And thought his hand had just done some harm.
He hid it under his pillow later that night
And didn’t want it to be in anyone’s sight.
