No indications in AI & CDP

 & leggieriss. in A (→GE)

 & leggieriss. in FE & EE

Both indications –  and leggieriss. – were probably added by Chopin at the last stage of preparing the manuscript base texts for the editions. It is proven both by their absence in AI and CDP and different placement of leggieriss. in FE and EE – Chopin probably wrote this indication in this form in [FR] and [AR].
