  "Epigram: You beat your pate" l. 1 (1732)

• Hope springs eternal in the human breast;
  Man never Is, but always To be Blest.
  The soul, uneasy, and confin'd from home,
  Rest and expatiates in a life to come.
  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.
