c2-e2 in FC (→GE1), FE, EE & GE2 (→GE3)

d2-f2 in GE1b

The version of GE1b with the d2-f2 third results most probably from the re-engraving of the final fragment of this bar due to wear and tear of the engraver plate (cf. similar situations in Andante spianato from Op. 22 or Concerto in F minor, op. 21, mvt. I). The remaining sources have notes at the correct height (which does not mean that the text is correct – see the previous note in this bar).
