Bacon (1561 -1621)But we have no coldsave such as is to be got in wintertime, or in caverns, or by application of snow and ice, [..]Andso too all natural condensations caused by cold should be investigated, in order that, their causes being known, they may be imitated by Newton 1642 -1727 Novumorganum(1620)Thethird of the seven modes [.]

For we have the heat of fire which is infinitelymore potent and intense than the heat of the sun as it reaches us, or the warmthof animals. TimeofI.
