  b. 48

d1 in AI, AII, AIII, A (→FE→GE,EEC) & EEW2

d1 in EEW1

Both addition of a  raising d1 to d1 in EEW1 and its deletion in EEW2 are arbitrary revisions of the publishing house. The first results from the conventional sense of harmony of the reviser performing a routine check of the notation of accidentals, whereas the second one – from comparison to FE or GE.
