AI

In AI, the bar is identical to bar 72, although As already includes the final version (without the little slur before the group of grace notes). It can indicate Chopin's hesitation, yet it cannot be excluded that resignation from differentiating between the version of both bars is an element of striving for simplicity due to the piano skills of Baroness de Rothschild, who was the addressee of the manuscript. Cf. bar 84.
