Lo, the poor Indian! whose untutor’d mind Sees God — Alexander Pope

Lo, the poor Indian! 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, an humbler heav’n.

An Essay on Man, I, l. 99
