In the earlier sources, some of the chords in the L.H. on the 3rd beat of bars 52 and 60 are provided with an arpeggio sign: JC has a wavy line in bar 52, while EF – in both. It is hard to determine what was Chopin's intention in this regard. Lack of wavy lines may be explained by an oversight, their presence – by a mistake resulting from a similarity with bars 53 and 61, and in the case of EF also from a generalising revision. It is also possible that Chopin changed his mind: at the time of writing [AI], he predicted arpeggios each time, while in [A] – already not. In the main text we give the version of PE without arpeggios.
The same applies to bars 88 and 96, which are repetitions of bars 52 and 60.
