  b. 26

Quavers in FC (→GE)

Dotted rhythm in FE (→EE)

None of the sources bears traces of changes here, which makes it impossible to determine its cause. A mistake seems more likely in FC – it is easier not to write a dot and a beam than to write them without any reason. However, this does not discredit the version of FC, since Chopin could have changed the rhythm in [A], reviewing it before handing it over to Fontana. In the main text we give the rhythm of FC, being the principal source; however, we regard the version of FE as equal.
