The accents, written in AI only in bar 35, most probably are to be considered as a model. It is confirmed by seven signs visible in FE (→GE,EE). The signs in FE (→EE), despite varied length and imprecise arrangement, are certainly long accents. In turn, it is not clear in GE, in which there is a visible tendency to extend the signs. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Long accents |

Lack of the wedge in EE2 is certainly a mistake. The wedge in the L.H. is most probably a revision of GE and EE3 (→EE4). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in EE , GE revisions |
