Go Ahead and Marvel

To see the 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.

A robin redbreast in a cage 
Puts all heaven in a rage.
A truth that's told with bad intent
Beats all the lies you can invent.

It is right it should be so;
Man was made for joy and woe;
And when this we rightly know,
Thro' the world we safely go.

-excerpt from William Blake's Auguries of Innocence
