  b. 168

Shorter  in A

Longer sign in FE (→GE,EE)

The longer  hairpins in FE (→GE,EE) may be a result of Chopin's proofreading. However, it is not certain, hence in the main text we leave the version of A, in which the sign does not deviate from its counterparts in bars 16, 64 and 120. The notation of the editions may be, however, considered to be an equal variant, as from the musical point of view, it is equally justified as the notation of A.
