R.H. wedges in A

No marks in GE1 (→FEEE)

Dots in both hands in bar 43 in GE2

Wedges in both hands suggested by the editors

The missing wedges at the beginning of bars 41 and 43 are certainly a result of inaccuracy (haste) of the engraver of GE1 – both cases are perfectly clear in A (the sign in bar 41 probably originated by the addition of the correct wedge to the nucleus of the slur, which Chopin then started from the semiquaver). In GE2, only the sign in bar 43 was included, interpreting it as a dot. In the main text, we suggest adding signs in the L.H., since a homogeneous articulation of both hands is beyond doubt.
