The sign, overlooked in A, could have been added in GE (→FE→EE) by Chopin. However, it is uncertain, and it seems to be possible that Chopin, in the descending part of the passage, could have been thinking of the pedalling he wrote in bar 88. Therefore, in the main text we give two pedalling proposals to choose from – an analogous to bar 88 in square brackets and the one added in GE1, in brackets. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Authentic corrections of GE |

The ending of the slur in GE1 was printed inaccurately – the slur at the end of the line suggests continuation, which is not confirmed by the slur in the next bar. In this case, this very frequent inaccuracy did not provoke mistakes in the remaining editions. In the initial part of the slur (in bar 93), one can see clear traces of proofreading of the slurs in GE1 – initially, one slur embraced bars 92-93. In GE1a, one can see that the slurs in the further part were originally different – one slur reached the end of bar 95, whereas the other ran above bar 96. Therefore, the inaccurate ending of the corrected slur described above is a result of an inaccurately implemented proofreading. category imprint: Source & stylistic information issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Corrected slurs of Op. 21 in GE1 |

The version of EE, with ties of the fourths in the L.H. in bars 97-98, 98-99, 101-102 and 102-103, is certainly arbitrary. The ties deprive the phrases of accented delays, so characteristic of the entire section. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |

In the main text we give accents in the L.H. in bars 98-99 and 102-103 after A and GE2, modelled after it. All differences between the remaining editions can be attributed to mistakes (oversight of signs in bars 98 and 103 in FE and EE, based on it) or inaccuracies (changes of the length of the accents). As a consequence, one can consider only the accent in bar 98 in GE1 and both accents in FE (bars 99 and 102) to be compliant with Chopin's notation; the accents, although unobvious at the first sight, as far as the type of the employed accent is concerned, are clearly longer than the short accents in bar 118, present on the same page. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Long accents , Errors in FE , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies |

The slurs of GE1, contrary to A and to a natural division into motifs, emphasised with a transfer of the hand, were partially corrected in FE (→EE). According to us, it is uncertain whether it was a result of Chopin's intervention or inaccuracy of the engraver. category imprint: Differences between sources |
