William Brake, "Auguries of Innocence"

To see a world in a Grain of Sand
And a heaven in a wild Flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour

The first line of'Auguries of Innocence' by William Blake,a British poet. The essence of the world exists even very small things like a grain of sand and a wild flower, as Blake wrote. He saw a whole world in a grain of sand in his hand. A grain of sand represents the whole world, or a grain of sand itself is the whole world.
