Rhythmic notation in AW

CDP, GC (→GE), FE & EE

The version of the ending's notation, written in AW (it is almost certain that this notation means the same performance as the notation of the final version), is either earlier or it follows from circumstances – Chopin perhaps added last three notes to an already finished manuscript. It cannot be excluded that he also made a draft of the final notation of this detail – over the upper stave one can see a sign that could be interpreted as a bar line with two ties.
