b. 37-38

composition: Op. 10 No 11, Etude in E♭ major

c2 in A

b1 in FE (→GE,EE)
..

In both bars Chopin changed the bottom notes of the chords on the 3rd quaver in a proofreading of FE (→GE,EE). He introduced similar changes in many other places both in A and proofreading of FE—cf. bars 17-21.

b. 37-38

composition: Op. 10 No 11, Etude in E♭ major

..

In A there are no flats lowering d2-d3 to d2-d3 in bar 38. The mistake was corrected in GE and EE. In bar 37 in FE a  was overlooked before the lower note of the 4th chord, which was also corrected in GE and EE.

b. 39

composition: Op. 10 No 11, Etude in E♭ major

e1 in A (→FE→GE,EE)

f1 proposed by the editors
..

In the main text we suggest f1 on the basis of Chopin's possible correction in analogous bar 7.

b. 39

composition: Op. 10 No 11, Etude in E♭ major

..

We add cautionary flats before the 2nd chord.

b. 40

composition: Op. 10 No 11, Etude in E♭ major

..

Before the last chord in A there are no naturals returning c2 and c3. The accidentals were probably added only in the last proofreading of FE (→EE), as they are not included in GE1 (they were added in subsequent GE,s).
