Regular expression to modify a line that contains only a single word at the start

I have a text file in which any line that star开发者_StackOverflow中文版ts with a single word and has no other characters after that should be enclosed inside caret characters.

For example, a line that contains only the following 6 characters (plus the newline):

France

should be replaced with a line that consists of only the following 8 characters (plus the newline):

^France^

Is there a Regular Expression I could use in the Find/Replace feature of my text editor (Jedit) to make these modifications to the file?
