b. 78-80

composition: WN 17, Polonaise in B♭ major

..

In the entire A major fragment, it is only EF that has a correct notation, as far as the accidentals are concerned (however, we add both signs in the 3rd triplet in bar 80 and the natural in the 5th triplet, required in accordance with the rules adopted by us). PE lacks some of the signs, which, however, does not have any impact on determining the correct text; similarly in JC, where there are only few necessary signs.
