  b. 108

g-d1 in GC & FE1 (→FE2)

b-d1 in GE, FE3 (→FE4) & EE

The compatible versions of GC and FE1 (→FE2) prove that such a notation was also in [A]. Chopin's highly likely mistake, probably related to the introduction of an enhanced version of the transition to the next phrase (it may be supposed that bar 108 was originally a repetition of bar 107, same as in two previous similar phrases), is proved by awkward in this context parallel A-a and G-g octaves, and, above all, Chopin proofreading of FE3 (→FE4) and base text to EE. The version of GE, in spite of being compatible with the authentic corrections, is most probably a luckily guessed revision, based on bar 128.
