2 long accents in GC

No accents in FE

Short accent in GE1 & EE

2 short accents in GE2 (→GE3)

Same as in the previous bars, the accents are a result of Chopin additions in GC and (most probably) in the base text to EE. The first two signs are clearly longer, however, according to us, it follows from the intention of clearly writing the signs overlapping the slur. The missing second one in GE1 is most probably an oversight (cf. the note concerning the chord in the L.H.), yet it is hard to state what was the reason of omitting this sign in EE.

See also the note on articulation in this bar.
