The EE version with empty C1-c and c1-c²octaves may well be either original or just incorrect. In the main text we present the GC notation adjusted to include accents on the inner notes of the chord, which was impossible to add in print. Moreover, this is most probably the [A2] (>FE). In GE two accents are replaced by one.
