The missing wedge in the editions most probably resulted from an oversight by the engraver of GE. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in GE |

As in bars 40-43, the use of long accents results here from the context rather than from the graphic form of the marks entered into A. Nevertheless, in GE (→FE) they were reproduced as long accents, which we adopt to the main text. The versions of EE and IE resulted from an inaccurate – partially or completely – reproduction of the GE notation. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Inaccuracies in A , |

The absence of the wedge over the third out of the four chords ending similar four-bar phrases (bar 44, 48, 52 and 56) are to be considered Chopin's oversight, hence in the main text we suggest adding this wedge. category imprint: Editorial revisions |

In A the accents differ significantly in terms of their size – the mark in bar 52 is a quite characteristic long accent, while the one in bar 53 corresponds to the atypical marks in bars 40-42. Taking into account the arguments presented there, in the main text we reproduce both as long accents. This is how they were interpreted by GE (→FE). The GE notation was distorted both by EE and IE, although each in a different way. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents , EE revisions , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in A , |

In the main text we suggest adding accents after the previous analogous phrases. Marks – long accents – were added already in GE (→FE,IE), and in EE they were reproduced as short accents. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Long accents , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |
