Question 13 • OK-English III A

Which quote from "My Heart Is Bursting" most contributes to the assertive tone of Set'tainte (Satanta)’s speech?

Answer

The Cheyennes are those who have been fighting with you. They did it in broad daylight so that all could see them.

All the chiefs of the Kiowas, Comanches, and Arapahos are here to-day; they have come to listen to good words.

I have heard that you intend to settle us on a reservation near the mountains. I don’t want to settle.

I have told you the truth. I have no little lies hid about me, but I don’t know how it is with the commissioners.

Explanation

The most assertive quote is “I don’t want to settle.” Satanta directly states his position and rejects the commissioners’ plan, giving the speech a firm, forceful tone. The other quotes mainly describe who is present, identify another group, or claim honesty.
