The version of A and of the later sources may raise stylistic doubts due to the parallel shift of the A
major chord to b minor appearing in combination with the previous bar. Therefore, it is presumably Chopin's lapsus calami. However, considering the fact that the composer had a number of occasions to correct his potential mistake (proofreading of three Stichvorlage manuscripts, proofreading of FE, lessons, whose proof are FED and FES), we preserve this version in the main text.
