This is not my homework.
How beautiful is life!
I suppose that in exclamatory sentences we use the direct arrangement of subject and verb, i.e. the helping verb comes after the subject.
Therefore the above sentence as an exclamatory sentence should be written as - "How beautiful the life is!"
Therefore, I think that the given sentence is in-fact a real question instead of exclamatory sentence.
The question is can we use the indirect arrangement in an exclamatory sentence?
For example-
what big hands do you have!
