It is unclear whether the accents in A should be interpreted as short or long. In bars 31-32 it seems more probable to interpret them as short ones. Similar doubts concern analogous bars 113-114 and 117-118.

The sources differ in the positioning of the end of the slur. A may be interpreted in 2 ways: the most natural one seems to be the way when we lead the slur to the end of the part of the R.H. The slur was recreated in such a manner in GE. FE's slur ends on the triplet, while in EE it was led to the last crotchet of the bar.

We recreated the accent and  after A and FE. In GE the accent was moved over the note and the  was transferred; a similar version, yet with an authentically doubtful vertical accent, is included in EE.
