  b. 83-84

 in FE (→EE)

Accent in GE

Possible alternative interpretation

It is hard to determine whether the clear difference between FE (→EE) and GE follows the equally clear difference between [A1] and [A2], as such a sign of mid-length could have been interpreted differently by the engravers of FE1 and GE. According to us, it is more likely that the  hairpins recreate the notation of the autograph more accurately.
