Arpeggio 3 bottom notes in A (→GE)

Arpeggio 4 notes in FE

Arpeggio 3 top notes in EE

In the main text we preserve the range of the arpeggio wavy line visible in A and confirmed with its interpretation in GE. The longer sign in FE does not seem to be corrected in print, but the version can be regarded as equal – when writing the wavy line in A, Chopin may have not noticed that when he was writing the top part of the sign, there was a temporary shortage of ink. In turn, the placement of the arpeggio in EE is certainly arbitrary.
