Out of the Frying Pan. The fresh spring winds begin to blow, _ The robin sings his roundelay; No more we shovel off the snow, Or ashes on the sidewalks lay.

No longer high-priced coal depletes Our purse or stirs within us ire; ‘The glowing sun our houses heats, We need no more the parlor fire.

But are we blest? Not much you het; We heave the sigh and drop the tear.

House cleaning comes our lives to fret, And carpet beating time is here.
