In A (→GE1) there are no digits specifying the number of notes in the irregular group consisting of 8 notes; however, they were added – probably by Chopin – in the proofreading of FE (→EE). In GE2, the entire group was marked with number 11, which, although theoretically possible, seems to be highly unlikely to be intended by Chopin – such a rhythm, quite unnatural and difficult to imagine in a strict way, practically differs very little from the version of FE (the differences in the length of the corresponding notes in both divisions do not exceed 10%).
