  b. 223-226

No accents in FE & EE

Long accents in FEG (→GE1)

Short accents in GE2 (→GE3)

Our variant suggestion

Chopin wrote four long accents in FEG (the sign in bar 224 is poorly visible on the accessible photocopy, yet its existence is indicated by the presence of a respective sign in GE1). In GE2 (→GE3) long accents were arbitrarily changed to short. As Chopin did not add accents in FE and EE, in the main text we suggest them in the variant form.
