Short accent in A (→GE) & EE

Long accent in FE

The long accent present in FE may be a result of carelessness of the engraver of FE, however, Chopin's proofreading cannot be excluded, particularly taking into account the fact that an identical situation occurs a half bar later. In the main text we adopt a long accent both here and in bar 41.
