Slur in A (literal reading→GEFEEE)

Long accent in A (contextual interpretation)

According to us, it is unclear whether the bar is to be considered analogous to bars 214 and 216 or to 219 and 220. In the first case, the sign written in A under the chord in the L.H. is to be considered a long accent; we assume this interpretation, resulting from the structure of the phrases in the R.H., in the main text. In the second case, the sign would be a diminuendo (), which, both here and in the next bars, has a function of an accent.
