  b. 24-26

Three short accents in EE

Two accents in GC (→GE)

Three long accents in FE

As we not sure about Chopin's notation, for our main text we adopt the version that combines the most certain elements from various sources: three accents occur in EE and FE, and short accents in EE and GC (→GE). The omission of the accent in bar 25 in GC (→GE) is probably accidental.
