Well , I must be moving along , if I am to see the world . '' So Johnny Chuck bade Chatterer good-by and started on . It was very delightful to wander over the Green Meadows on such a beautiful spring morning . The violets and the wind-flowers nodded to him , and the dandelions smiled up at him . Johnny almost forgot his torn clothes and the bites and scratches of his great fight with the gray old Chuck the day before . It was fun to just go where he pleased and not have a care in the world . He was thinking of this , as he sat up to look over the Green Meadows . His heart gave a great throb . What was that over near the lone elm - tree ? It was -- yes , it certainly was another Chuck ! Could it be the old gray Chuck come back for another fight ? A great anger filled the heart of Johnny Chuck , and he whistled sharply . The strange Chuck did n't answer . Johnny ground his teeth and started for the lone elm-tree . He would show this other Chuck who was master of the Green Meadows ! X WHY JOHNNY CHUCK DID N'T FIGHT Anger is an awful thing ; It never stops to reason . It boils right over all at once , No matter what the season . It was so with Johnny Chuck . The minute he caught sight of the strange Chuck over by the lone elm-tree , anger filled his heart and fairly boiled over , until he was in a terrible rage . Of course it was foolish , very foolish indeed .
The strange Chuck had n't said or done anything to make Johnny Chuck angry , not the least thing in the world , excepting to come down on to the Green XXXXX .
