A search: the world in a grain of sand

I'm not sure if this is allowed on this community, but here I am on the hunt for a poem featuring the words:
"the world in a grain of sand and eternity in an hour"
or at least something like them.
thanks for any and all help

I'm an angel and an Angle, to pun on a Latin phrase (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angles#St._Gregory) and a lovely Decemberists song (http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/decemberists/ofangelsandangles.html). ;)
