Scientists in Rome have found two fingers and a tooth that had been removed from the corpse of Galileo Galilei. All will soon be on display at an Italian Museum in Florence.



Give The Man A Hand

Galileo lost some digits
On his way to his new tomb.
He's joining Michelangelo,
Who lies at rest in a nearby room.

The curator called for all the parts,
Saying there's no time to linger.
So he who owns the famous bones
Gave the man the ancient finger.
