QUATRAIN: BEAUTY by MADISON JULIUS CAWEIN

First Line: HIGH AS A STAR, YET LOWLY AS A FLOWER
Last Line: STRIKES, AND, BEHOLD! THE MARVEL OF HER FACE.
Subject(s): BEAUTY;

High as a star, yet lowly as a flower,
Unknown she takes her unassuming place
At Earth's proud masquerade -- the appointed hour
Strikes, and, behold! the marvel of her face.
