Answer:

Very long

Explanation:

The clue that suggests what "abridge" means is "very long." In this passage, we learn that a manuscript was too long, and that it was abridged. If we look at a dictionary, we will learn that "to abridge" means to make something shorter. However, we can also guess this from context by looking at the rest of the passage.
