whose untutor 'd mind \/ Sees God in clouds , or hears him in the wind ; \/ His soul proud Science never taught to stray \/ Far as the solar walk or milky way ; \/ Yet simple Nature to his hope has giv ` n , \/ Behind the cloud-topp 'd hill , a humbler heav ` n ; \/ Some safer world in depth of woods embrac 'd , \/ Some happier island in the wat ` ry waste , \/ Where slaves once more their native land behold , \/ No fiends torment , no Christians thirst for gold !
