Chief Seattle has said these words - “Yonder sky that has wept tears of compassion upon my people for centuries untold"
Explanation:
Chief Seattle was the chief of Red Indian or Native American Tribes. He is famous for his speech or ‘letter’ which was a response to the ‘land treaty’ of the Government of America. The treaty was about buying the native lands.
These lines were uttered by him at the 'beginning' of the speech. He says that nature has given them everything that is needed for them to live on this earth. It never changed and remained eternal.
