Long accents in A, contextual interpretation

In A each of the three  marks fills a half of a bar, which was repeated in GE (→FE,EE,IE), with minor inaccuracies. Such repeating  marks are generally long accents, hence in the main text we present them in this standardised form. An additional justification for such an interpretation is provided by the marks in analogous bars 108-109.
Similarly, in bars 321-322.
