Batch file needed to wrap entire column of text in double quotes

[batchnoob2021]

Hi everyone ,

Just joined here to ask this ! I have a text file that has multiple lines without any quotes. I need a batch file that will append a single double quote at the beginning of the first line (not on a separate line by itself , it must be the first character on the first line) I need the same for the very last line position also. So to end up looking like

"One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six
Seven"

...Therefore wrapping the entire column. I hope you guys can solve this for me as its been driving me nuts !

Thanks in advance !
