For a moment I saw nothing then a tiny spot of white incandescence shone forth at the lower edge of the great spot. It grew into a point of radiance, dazzling even through the shadowed lenses. I rubbed my eyes; looked again. It was still there, larger blazing with an ever increasing and intolerable intensity. I handed the glasses to Drake, silently. "I see it!" he muttered. "I see it!
She felt herself confronting God at home in His white incandescence, His fire settling on her like the Holy Spirit. Her lips were parted in a woman's joy of adoration. The moment passed, and her thoughts hurried forward in confusion.
In the welter of incandescence, where now only the stone chimney stood and this, too, was already cracking and swaying Brevard had found his tomb, together with the two Air Trust spies. All that pleasant, necessary place was now a mass of white-hot ruin; all those books and pictures now had turned to ash.
At the beginning of the century the Cornish philosopher, Humphrey Davy, had discovered that the electric current produced a brilliant arch or 'arc' of light when passed between two charcoal points drawn a little apart, and that it heated a fine rod of charcoal or a metal wire to incandescence that is to say, a glowing condition.

And, moreover, the inflammable material fit for combustion was, especially in Germany, present in quantity.
