  b. 85-86

The sources differ in the range of the diminuendo hairpins. In A they begin on the 4th quaver in bar 85 and they end under the 10th quaver in bar 86. In GE the range of the hairpins was simplified, positioning them in the entire space of bars 85-86. In GE2 (→GE3→GE4) the ending of the hairpins was specified, as they were shortened by one quaver in comparison with GE. In FE and EE the hairpins were put only in bar 85 and shortened to two middle quaver groups. We adopt the notation of A.
