The present in these bars pair of 
hairpins shows significant differences, as far as the range of both signs in particular sources is concerned. In the case of the first of them, we consider only the differences concerning the moment of beginning of the sign to be significant. We consider the versions of GC and FE – sources based on [A] – to be equal variants, out of which we choose the version of the base source (FE) to the main text. The differences in the range of the hairpin that do not exceed one quaver seem to be unimportant; only their reproduction in GE1 as an accent is certainly a mistake.
