  b. 39-46

sempre piano in bar 39 in GC & EE

sempre piano in bar 39 in FE & GE2 (→GE3)

sempre piano in bar 46 in GE1

In GE1 the sempre piano indication, in GC and EE placed under the part of the L.H. in bar 39, was assigned to bar 46, written below. The mistake was corrected in GE2 (→GE3), yet moving the indication between the staves. Despite the fact that the indication is placed in a similar way in FE, one can have doubts whether it corresponds to Chopin's intention.
