  b. 7-8

In A (→GE1) and FE the only cautionary sign in these bars is the  next to d1 in the L.H. in bar 8 (in EE there is also a  before c3 in bar 7). The flat was omitted – not without a reason – in GE2 (→GE3), whereas a few others were added: before e2 and d2-b2 in bar 7 and g2-e3 and d3 in bar 8. In the main text we consider the first and last from the aforementioned signs, while still adding a  before g1 in bar 7 (due to the similarity of combination of bars 6-7 with bars 2-3).
