  b. 36-37

a1 repeated in As, AI, AII, AIII & A (→FE→GE1Db,EE)

a1 tied in GE1op (→GE2op→#GE3op) & GE2Db→GE3Db→GE4Db)

In GE1op – probably due to the misunderstanding of the phrase mark running from the a1 crotchet in bar 36 (the 2nd volta) – a tie sustaining this crotchet to a minim in the next bar was added. The erroneous version was repeated in all subsequent GE (also in the majority of the subsequent collective editions of Chopin's works).
