When he had finished speaking, great praise arose from those present, and no one of those who were asked their opinion after him expressed a different view.
γράφεται δὴ μετὰ ταῦτα τὸ τῆς βουλῆς δόγμα τοιόνδε· ἄνδρας ἐκ τῶν ὑπατικῶν αἱρεθῆναι δέκα τοὺς πρεσβυτάτους, οἵτινες ὁρίσαντες τὴν δημοσίαν χώραν ἀποδείξουσιν, ὅσην τε δεῖ μισθοῦσθαι καὶ ὅσην τῷ δήμῳ διαιρεθῆναι· §8.76.2τοῖς δʼ ἰσοπολίταις τε καὶ συμμάχοις, ἐάν τινα ὕστερον ἐπικτήσωνται κοινῇ στρατευσάμενοι, τὸ ἐπιβάλλον ἑκάστοις κατὰ τὰς ὁμολογίας ὑπάρχειν μέρος· τὴν δʼ αἵρεσιν τῶν ἀνδρῶν καὶ τὴν διανομὴν τῶν κλήρων καὶ τἆλλα ὅσα δεῖ γενέσθαι τοὺς εἰσιόντας ἐπιτελέσαι ὑπάτους.
After this, a decree of the senate of the following sort was drawn up: that ten of the eldest men from among the consulars be chosen, who, having bounded the public land, should designate how much of it ought to be leased and how much to be distributed to the plebeians; and that for those who possessed equal citizenship and the allies, if they should later acquire any land in common by campaigning together, the portion falling to each according to their agreements should be secured; and that the incoming consuls should carry out the election of the ten men, the distribution of the allotments, and all other things that must be done.
τοῦτο τὸ δόγμα εἰς τὸν δῆμον εἰσενεχθὲν τόν τε Κάσσιον ἔπαυσε τῆς δημαγωγίας, καὶ τὴν ἀναρριπιζομένην ἐκ τῶν πενήτων στάσιν οὐκ εἴασε περαιτέρω προελθεῖν.
This decree, when brought before the people, put an end to the demagoguery of Cassius, and did not allow the sedition that was being fanned among the poor to proceed any further.
