Long accent in A

Accent (?) in FE (→GE1)

Short accent on d1 in EE2 (→EE3)

Short accent on g1 in GE2 (→GE3→GE4→GE5) & EE4

One can have doubts concerning the type of the accent used in A to indicate the beginning of the motif. According to us, it is the long accent that is more likely. In FE (→GE1) the sign was reproduced inaccurately, so that in EE2 (→EE3) it was placed over the 2nd semiquaver in the bar.
