The differences between the sources result from mistakes and inaccuracies of both the copyist and the engravers of FE and GE. However, the issues concerning the decipherment and the interpretation of A were caused by, e.g. a dense notation, without spaces between the staves – actually, in A there is no space for pedalling markings, added later, which resulted in them being placed inaccurately at times. The interpretation of A given in the main text corrects the position of the marks in b. 1-2 and 5 – according to us, in A they are placed before the notes they concern, i.e. A (cf. the markings in analogous figures in b. 3-4) or D. We also move the marks, which precede them, accordingly. See also b. 17 and 18-20. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in GE , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in FC , Inaccuracies in A |

The long accents written in A (→FC) were not reproduced correctly in any of the editions. Both the shorter marks in FE and their omission in GE could have been related to a very dense and not always rational vertical text layout. The change of the accents' font in EE is a revision, typical of that edition, while the omission of the third mark – an oversight. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in EE , Errors in GE |

In the main text we include the staccato dot placed in A quite high above the 1st quaver; perhaps this is the reason it was overlooked in FE (→EE). On the basis of the preserved photograph, it is difficult to conclude whether the dot was copied in FC. According to us, it is likely that it is between the ledger lines, poorly legible due to the beam in b. 41, visible through the other page. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Errors in GE |
