in FE

In the main text we give sostenuto, written in FC by Chopin after deleting two other indications, including probably ben tenuto, which was preserved in FE. Moreover, the indication concerning the R.H. was corrected by Chopin twice – at the beginning he wrote another indication and obliterated it (perhaps delicato) and then he changed leggierissimo (used then in bar 81) to leggiero.
