[13] One of the anonymous lives of Apollonius Rhodius states that he
presided over the Museum Libraries ([Greek: ton bibliothekon ton
Mouseion]).

[15] Ammianus Marcellinus, Book XXII., Chap. 16, Sec. 12. Atriis columnariis
amplissimis et spirantibus signorum figmentis ita est exornatum, ut post
Capitolium quo se venerabilis Roma in aeternum attollit, nihil orbis
terrarum ambitiosius cernat. See also Aphthonius, _Progymn._ C. XII. ed.

[17] Strabo, Book XIII., Chap. 4, Sec. 2. After recounting the successful
policy of Eumenes II. towards the Romans, he proceeds: [Greek: kateskenase
de ontos ten polin, kai to Nikephorion alsei katephuteuse, kai anathemata
kai bibliothekas kai ten epi tosonde katoikian tou Pergamon ten nun ousan
ekeinos prosephilokalese].

next note.

[19] Pliny, _Hist. Nat._, Book XIII., Chap. 11. Mox aemulatione circa
bibliothecas regum Ptolemaei et Eumenis, supprimente chartas Ptolemaeo, idem
Varro membranas Pergami tradidit repertas. Vitruvius, on the other hand
(_ut supra_) makes Ptolemy found the library at Alexandria as a rival to
that at Pergamon. Reges Attalici magnis philologiae dulcedinibus inducti
cum egregiam bibliothecam Pergami ad communem delectationem instituissent,
tune item Ptolemaeus, infinito zelo cupiditatisque incitatus studio, non
minoribus industriis ad eundem modum contenderat Alexandriae comparare.

[20] Plutarch, _Antonius_, Chap. 57. To a list of accusations against
Antony for his subservience to Cleopatra, is added the fact: [Greek:
charisasthai men aute tas ek Pergamon bibliothekas, en ais eikosi muriades
biblon aplon esan].
