5 dots in A

6 dots in GE (→FE→EE)

The presence of a staccato dot also over the 1st semiquaver in the editions is, according to us, a result of inattention of the engraver of GE1 or of his belief that the notation of A was performed carelessly. In both previous appearances of this phrase, the move after the syncopation of a2 is resumed on one of the weakest beats of the bar.
