Contrary to the notation of A, accents in GE1 are of a varied length. The signs in FE are not equivalent, yet the difference seems to be unimportant; we interpret them as short (short accents are also in GE2). All those differences are undoubtedly of an accidental character. In EE both signs were reproduced as vertical accents and such an accent was added over the chord on the 4th beat of the bar. Cf. notes on accents in the R.H. in this and next bar.
