L.H. short accents in FE |

R.H. different accents in GE |

Our suggestion |
Accents in these bars differ in length and placement. EE has two long accents, FE - two short ones. We believe that the marks in GC do not differ in size from those of the same kind in the previous bars, and so we present them as short ones. In GE an accent in b. 594 is slightly longer than the following. Both marks in GC are notated closer to the RH part, which was recreated in the same way in GE. In the remaining editions they are placed on the LH fifths. The missing autograph prevents the right assessement, and so we propose a compromise not to impose either way of interpretation of the accents.
