Pedalling in EE & GC (→GE)

Pedalling in FE

Our variant suggestion

The pedalling of EE and GC (→GE) is definitely authentic. The pedalling of FE does not raise much doubt either, apart from the placement of the  mark in bar 267, which seems inaccurate (see the note to bar 259). We include the two versions of pedalling, both of them probably authentic, as variants.
