A long accent in A

A reversed accent mark in GE1 (→FE)

No mark in EE

A short accent in GE2

A short accent in GE3

The long accent written by Chopin in A was reversed in GE1 (→FE) so that it resembles small crescendo hairpins. In EE that reversed mark, difficult to understand in the context, was omitted altogether. GE2 introduced a short accent, yet assigned it to the sixth in the L.H. That latter inaccuracy was corrected in GE3
