  b. 38

The bottom note of the 2nd semiquaver is written in AI as e, while before the bottom note of the next semiquaver there is no  returning e. In the context of a more precise notation of the later sources, the lack of  must be considered as a mistake, in spite of the fact that from the purely harmonic point of view, the version with the repeated e would not be entirely impossible (although rather not in the stylistics of young Chopin, who showed a clear preference for diminished four-note chords). In A one can see traces of change of this e to f. Cf. the Prelude in C minor, Op. 45, bar 79
