| Excerpted from "The Best of Uncle John's Bathroom Reader" | Extraído de "The Best of Uncle John's Bathroom Reader" |
| Francis Bacon | Francis Bacon |
| One of the most influential minds of the late 16th century. | Uma das mentes mais influentes do final do século XVI. |
| A statesman, a philosopher, a writer, and a scientist, he was even rumored to have written some of Shakespeare's plays. | Estadista, filósofo, escritor e cientista, dizem até que ele escreveu algumas das peças de Shakespeare. |
| How he died: Stuffing snow into a chicken | Como morreu: Enchendo uma galinha com neve |
| One afternoon in 1625, Bacon was watching a snowstorm and was struck by the wondrous notion that maybe snow could be used to preserve meat in the same way that salt was used. | Uma tarde em 1625, Bacon estava assistindo a uma tempestade de neve e foi atingido pela ideia maravilhosa de que talvez a neve pudesse ser usada para preservar a carne da mesma forma que o sal era usado. |
| Determined to find out, he purchased a chicken from a nearby village, killed it, and then, standing outside in the snow, attempted to stuff the chicken full of snow to freeze it. | Determinado a descobrir, ele comprou uma galinha de um vilarejo próximo, matou-a e, em pé na neve, do lado de fora, tentou encher a galinha com neve para congelá-la. |
| The chicken never froze, but Bacon did. | O frango nunca congelou, mas Bacon sim. |
