The mark present in A (→GE), despite its considerable size, seems to indicate a long accent – it begins slightly before the b
-b1 minim, but after the preceding note, and ends before the next one, which means that it actually concerns only this minim. However, since such notation could potentially hinder the correct interpretation, in the main text we suggest a standard long accent mark, compliant with the ones Chopin wrote in all analogous bar 94, 261 and 265. The absence of the mark in FE (→EE) most probably results from the fact that Chopin was adding dynamic markings concerning this fragment to A and [FC] or FE1 at a different time.
