Rests in CLI & GE (except GE3)

No rests in FE (→EE2EE3)

Rests in GE3 & EE4

Our variant suggestion

The sources differ when it comes to the notation of rests at the end of these bars. The natural notation of CLI, in which the part of the R.H. ends with a rest, however, was not repeated in FE (→EE2EE3). As it is not certain whether omitting the rests was done on purpose by Chopin, in the main text we propose rests in brackets as a variant solution. After all, the difference has a rather ideological than practical character. In the remaining editions the rests are present, which is most probably a result of revisers' actions. In EE4 and GE3 both rests are in bar 45, which is most probably a mistake.
