That very afternoon, while Chatterer was taking a nap in his bed in the hollow stump, something was slipped over his little round doorway, and Chatterer awoke in a terrible fright to find himself a prisoner inside his hollow stump. THAT VERY AFTERNOON WHILE CHATTERER WAS TAKING A NAP IN HIS BED IN THE HOLLOW STUMP SOMETHING SLIPPED OVER HIS LITTLE ROUND DOORWAY AND CHATTERER AWOKE IN A TERRIBLE FRIGHT TO FIND HIMSELF A PRISONER INSIDE HIS HOLLOW STUMP
prison may be, no one can be truly happy there. Since he had been a prisoner, Chatterer had learned to think very differently of Farmer Brown's boy from what he used to think. In fact, he and Farmer Brown's boy had become very good friends, for Farmer Brown's boy was always very gentle, and always brought him something good to eat. "He isn't at all like what I had thought," said Chatterer, "and if I were free, I wouldn't be afraid of him at all. I--I'd like to tell some of the other little Green Forest people about him. If only--" Chatterer didn't finish. Instead a great lump filled his throat. You see, he was thinking of the Green Forest and the Old Orchard, and how he used to race through the tree-tops and along the stone wall. Half the fun in life had been in running and jumping, and now there wasn't room in this little prison to stretch his legs. If only he could run--run as hard as ever he knew how--once in a while, he felt that his prison wouldn't be quite so hard to put up with. ERER LOVES NO HE NEVER HAD BEEN SO COMFORTABLE IN ALL HIS LIFE BUT HE WASN'T HAPPY NOT TRULY HAPPY THERE SINCE HE HAD BEEN A PRISONER CHATTERER HAD LEARNED TO THINK VERY DIFFERENTLY OF FARMER BROWN'S BOY FROM WHAT HE USED TO THINK IN FACT HE AND FARMER BROWN'S BOY HAD BECOME VERY GOOD FRIENDS FARMER BROWN'S BOY WAS ALWAYS VERY GENTLE AND ALWAYS BROUGHT HIM SOMETHING GOOD TO EAT HE WAS A LITTLE OLD LIKE WHAT I THOUGHT AND IF I WERE FREE I WOULDN'T BE AFRAID TO HIM AT ALL I'D I'D LIKE TO TELL SOME OF THE LITTLE GREEN FOOLS PEOPLE ABOUT HIM IF ONLY CHATTERER DIDN'T FINISH INSTEAD A GREAT LUMP FILLED HIS THROAT YOU SEE HE WAS THINKING OF THE GREEN FOREST AND THE OLD ORCHARD AND HOW HE USED TO RACE THROUGH THE TREE TOPS AND ALONG THE STONE WALL HALF THE FUN IN LIFE HAD BEEN IN RUNNING AND JUMPING AND NOW THERE WASN'T ROOM IN HIS LITTLE PRISON TO STRETCH HIS LEGS IF ONLY HE COULD RUN RUN AS HARD AS EVER HE KNEW HOW WAS IT WHILE HE FELT THAT HIS PRISON WOULDN'T BE QUITE SO HARD TO PUT UP WITH
