The lack of staccato dot in FE results probably from an oversight or a lack of space. The second dot in EE cannot be authentic – it is either an arbitrary revision or a mistake. category imprint: Interpretations within context issues: Inaccuracies in FE |

The four accents in A, although rather big, are nonetheless distinctly shorter than long accents e.g. in bars 39, 41-43 or 68. In GC accents are much longer what was reproduced in GE (the marks in GE are longer than accents in e.g. bars 179-180 or 184). FE has long accents as well, but EE arbitrarily replaced them with vertical accents. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , Inaccuracies in GC |

It is not completely clear whether the staccato mark in A is a dot or a wedge. In the main text we give a dot for despite its irregular shape the mark is similar in size to a dot. That is how it was also understood by the copyist. In EE, FE and GE, probably due to a mistake, the mark was omitted. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Errors in EE , Errors in GE , Wedges |
