The additional wedge in GE is, according to the editors, most likely a mistake by the engraver of GE1 – there is no reason why Chopin's possible addition of marks should only apply to the L.H. In turn, omission of the last R.H. wedge in FE is probably a side effect of the correction of the pitch of this quaver – see the adjacent note. The absence of 3 out of 5 wedges in FESB is most likely the result of the carelessness of the engraver of this edition. In the main text we provide wedges according to A, taking into account Chopin's correction of the last quaver introduced in FE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Errors resulting from corrections , GE revisions , Errors in FESB |

In the main text we give the slurs of A, since the changes appearing in GE and FE (→EE) are almost certainly a result of a routine, schematic interpretation of slurs by the engraver of GE1 and inaccuracies of FE. The alternative interpretation of the slur beginning in bar 212 suggested by us comes from an observation that in A the beginning of the slur falls over a deleted note, probably f2, which may mean that after having performed the correction, Chopin did not control the correctness of the slurring. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Corrections in A , Errors resulting from corrections |

The version of FE is almost certainly erroneous: both the missing interval of an octave before the topmost note of the passage and repetition of this note disrupt the regular melodic and pianistic nature of the figuration – cf. analogous phrases in bars 221 and 228-231. The correction of the text in the remaining editions was most probably introduced on the basis of comparison with the analogous bars. Moreover, a correction is written also in FEH; however, it was not the sixth but the seventh semiquaver that was changed, probably by mistake. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Annotations in teaching copies , EE revisions , Errors in FE , Errors resulting from corrections , GE revisions , Annotations in FEH |
