  b. 6

The crescendo hairpins are marked slightly different in each of the sources. The right-hand end of the hairpins in A is unclear. Comparison with analogous bars and FE and EE versions (out of which one is most probably based on a different autograph), enables considering A's notation as inaccurate. We harmonise the notation according to analogous places.
