 in A (→GE2GE3)

GE1 (→FEEE)

The extent of the hairpin mark  in A may give rise to certain doubts due to inexact alignment of the L.H. part under the R.H. part. The engraver of GE1 (→FEEE) probably matched the beginning of the hairpin with the L.H. crotchets, which was an evident mistake later corrected in GE2 (→GE3). Applied to the R.H., the hairpin mark in A doubtless refers to the quaver figure on the 3rd beat of the bar, despite the fact that it begins a little earlier.
