Ever. Introduction to Francis Bacon:

In 621, Bacon was accused of corruption and bribery by Parliament. He was sentenced to a fine of 40,000 pounds by the High Court, imprisoned in the Tower of London, expelled from the court for life, and barred from holding parliamentary and official positions. Although the fine and imprisonment were later waived, Bacon's reputation was ruined. From then on, Bacon stopped dealing with political affairs and began to concentrate on theoretical writings.
