And to make the reform lasting, these holders and their descendants were to possess their land without right to sell. In return, they were to pay a small rent to the state.
1 Agrarian refers to land, especially farm land ; from the Latin ager.
Opponents of reform very commonly refer contemptuously to any attempt at social betterment as "asrarianism," 324 DECAY OF THE ROMAN REPUBLIC 3. To provide for changes, and to keep the law from being neglected, there was to be a permanent board of three co...mmis- sioners to superintend the reclaiming and distributing of land.
Gracchus urged his law with fiery eloquence : "The wild beasts of Italy have their dens, but the brave men who spill their blood for her are without homes or settled habitations.
Their generals do but mock them when they exhort their men to fight for their sepulchers and the gods of their hearths ; for among such numbers there is perhaps not one who has an ancestral altar. The private soldiers fight and die to advance the luxury of the great, and they are called masters of the world without having a sod to call their own." The Senate of course opposed the proposal, and the wealthy men, who had so long enjoyed what did not belong to them, cried out that the measure was confiscation.
