In the main text, we give the accent in bar 79 on the basis of FC, where it could have been written by Chopin (cf. bars 71-75). The sign in bar 77 is probably the original version of the accent, left by inattention, analogous to the signs present in the passages including one bar only, hence we suggest there a long accent based on analogous bars. This is the notation, probably original, that is included in FE in bar 77 and in EE and GE in both discussed bars. The notation of FE in bar 79, used in this context only there, may be erroneous (see also bars 74-76).
