  b. 75-76

The several-bar long  sign is written inaccurately in A – the upper arm is a one and a half bar shorter. We adopt the range of the bottom arm to be meaningful. In FE the sign was led only to the end of bar 75, which is probably a result of a mistake – the sign reaches the end of the line, whereas  from bar 77 was placed already in bar 76. See the next note, as well as bars 71-75.
