Short accent in EE

Long accent in GC & FE

No mark in GE

..

The short accent in EE, given the lack of a note to be accented, must an inaccuracy of notation as there is a long accent here in both GC and FE. Lack of accent in GE must be an element of revision based on an assumption that in GC the tie on g was omitted.

Staccato dots in GE

..

The staccato dots in GE must have been added by the editor, however, they may most certainly be performed (compare authentic staccato marks in corresponding bars 31, 113 and 129).

Rhythm in EE & GC (→GE1)

FE and GE2

..

Both rhytmical versions of this bar may well be authentic. Identical rhythmical differences between these sources occur in corresponding bars 47 and 129. In the main text we present the FE version - most probably the latest.                                             In GE2 there is arbitrarily borrowed rhythm from FE.

Slur in EE & FE

Contextual interpretation of the slur in GC (→GE)

..

It is apparent that the slur in GC is imprecise - it ends on the end of b. 398 (b.56), which was rightly corrected in GE by extending it over to the first crotchet. This diminshes GC (→GE) credibility and raises doubts as for the slur's beginning as well. Therefore, in the main text we adopt the consistent version of EE and FE.
