I puzzled over this, too: I went for quantity, thinking that it referred to syllables, as in:

"The Quantity of a Vowel or a Syllable is the time occupied in pronouncing it. Two degrees of Quantity are recognized,-- long and short"

But I'd be receptive to any argument the other way

I went for quantify thinking that's what you would have do to answer the question!
