The notation of accidentals in the figurations in these bars is both refined and inaccurate in A. Chopin took care of the cautionary signs (naturals before the topmost c2, c3 and c4 notes and flats before d1 and d3 in the ending of bars 101 and 103); however, he omitted a number of necessary signs – naturals returning c2 and c3 at the beginning of the last group in bars 102 and 103 and naturals raising d2 to d2 and e2 to e2 in bar 103. The editions addressed only the last two mentioned inaccuracies:
- GE (→FE) did add two naturals in bar 103, yet a mistake was committed at the same time – it was c2 and d2 instead of d2 and e2 that were deleted;
- in EE1 (→EE2) one of the added signs was removed, the superfluous before c2;
- in EE3 the version of EE2 was completed with a raising e2 to e2.
In the main text we give all necessary signs and we add a cautionary before d2 in bar 102.
