No accent mark in A (→GE1→FE→EE)

A short accent in GE2 (→GE3)

The editors' alternative proposition

In GE2 (→GE3) an accent (short) was added above a flat2 at the beginning of the bar. Such a revision may seem justified by accents in analogous bars 107 and 109. Therefore we admit the possibility of adding an accent (long) following the pattern of the above-mentioned bars.
