Long accent over R.H. chord in A

Long accent under R.H. chord suggested by the editors

Short accent over R.H. chord in FE

2 short accents in GE & EE

As in bar 277, in the main text we put the long accent placed in A over the R.H. chord between the staves, since it must concern both hands. This issue was also specified in GE and EE by adding another accent under the L.H. part. The fact that all the editions used short accents results from the absence of a defined category of long accent being a separate mark.
