In the sources there is a number of discrepancies in the notation of accidentals. They result from unnamed and changing over the time rules concerning the accidentals' validity and they do not influence the interpretation of the text. The layout of the accidentals adopted in the main text is present in GE4 (→GE5).

No pedalling in CLI & FE (→GE1GE2, →EE2EE3)

Pedalling in GE3 (→GE4GE5) & EE4

Our suggestion

..

Lack of pedalling in FE (→GE1GE2,→EE2EE3) seems to be a result of Chopin's oversight, therefore, in the main text we propose to complete it on the basis of the authentic pedalling in similar bar 70. This was already done in GE3 (→GE4GE5) and EE4.

No ties in CLI

Ties in GE & EE

..

In FE there are no ties sustaining the upper notes of the octaves in bars 73-74 and 75-76. According to us, the most probable explanation is a misunderstanding at the time of changing the original abbreviated notation of the octaves with the use of under the upper notes for regular notation. In CLI the octaves, written in the described brief manner, are not sustained at all, which most probably is a mistake.
