b. 113-115

composition: Op. 30 No. 4, Mazurka in C# minor

..

In FE (→EE) there are no arpeggios, which is a patent mistake, as is the absence of one of them in FC (at the beginning of bar 114). The defect of the copy was corrected in GE.

No sign in FC (→GE)

The missing arpeggios to the tenth chords in bars 119, 121 and 123 are most probably an oversight by the copyist in FC (→GE1), revised in GE2.
