No indication in GE

The dynamic indication of A was not accurately reproduced in any of the remaining sources. The most serious mistake was committed by Fontana, who did not notice the dim. indication and continued writing crescendo dashes in FC, which radically changed the effect intended by Chopin. Therefore, dim. is also absent in GE, in which, however, the oversight of dashes (already from b. 26) mitigated the results of the copyist's mistake. Omission of some or all dashes in FE and EE are minor inaccuracies.
