Answer:

A match

Explanation:

Here the old woman takes out kitchen matches to light the fire herself. She doesn’t want the firemen to destroy her house or her books. Out of pride, she asks the firemen to stop counting as they would then unleash the hound and other equipment to put her house on fire. These lines show how the old woman loved books and knowledge more than her life.
