They walk in beauty, like the night,
By day their soaps' brightest lights.
So Digest salutes the fairer sex:
Thirteen unique, very special effects
Stunning in their style and class,
Plus extra helpings of wit and sass.
For as they themselves do insist,
Beauty's more than just making a list
Of those with pretty face and mane
(Not that they're likely to complain!)
But beauty has additional parts —
Equal servings of soul and smarts.
