If you are afraid for its life then you could move it into a shaded area now, until mid-Sept or early Oct. I don't think we could decide if it's dead or not unless you have a picture of it, though...

If it is already planted in the ground, then I suggest you rig up some kind of shade for it for now. Then you can move it in the fall or spring when the weather is more conducive to transplanting.

If nothing else, put a lawn chair over it for shade--but check every couple hours to see how the sun/shade pattern is changing--so you can calculate the direction the chair needs to be to angle shade over the plant.

And lots of water during this heat.

full sun is too much-needs half day at most...
