Similarly as in analogous bars 1-2, AI has here only an accent under f² at the beginning of bar 10. Lack of the sign in bar 10 in A (→GE1) seems to be an inaccuracy of notation, corrected – probably by Chopin – in GE1a (→GE2→GE3). After including this correction, the dynamic hairpins correspond to the scheme of analogous bars 1-2, as well as to the signs in FE and EE. In the main text we give the hairpins written in A and added in GE1a.
