f2 in A

No f2 in FC (→GE1)

f2 in FE (→EE) & GE2 (→GE3)

The missing f2 crotchet in FC (→GE1) may be a result of an unfinished or failed correction of the pitch of that note – in the place where the stem of the chord ends, e2 was probably removed. Another possibility is a misrepresenting its notehead in A for a mere thickening at the end of stem. The copyist also omitted the arpeggio sign before that chord and the slur. The revision restoring a tolerably correct text in GE2 (→GE3) was most probably based on FE, which is indicated by an identical unification of the rhythmic values of the g1-b1 third (in FE the unification most probably resulted from a misunderstanding of the notation of A) and by the way the misleading notation in the previous bar was corrected.
