The sources differ in the range of  entries. Chopin's entries in Ap and FEcor do not show significant differences, in the main text we give the version of FEcor. In finished FE the hairpins in bar 33 were shortened, the version was reproduced in EE with insignificant displacements (except for EE2, where both signs were omitted). It is GE that displays the greatest differences in comparison with the base text: the hairpins in bar 33 actually correspond to authentic signs, yet the sign in bar 34 in GE1 (→GE2) was arbitrarily prolonged, which distorted its meaning, whereas in GE3 and subsequent ones – it was totally omitted.
