  b. 82-84

 in A, literal reading

 in GE (→FE,EE,IE)

Long accents suggested by the editors

It is unclear how the 4  marks present in A should be interpreted. A series of diminuendoes cannot be reconciled with the upcoming climax in bar 86, emphasised by the crescendo indication, which makes us doubt the accuracy of this standard interpretation. According to us, these marks are most probably long accents, the shape of which was not yet fully developed in the notation of young Chopin (their form in his later works is different).
