  b. 131-132

dim. in bar 132 in FE (→GE)

dim. in bar 131 in EE

The fact that dim. appears earlier is probably the initial version of this fragment's dynamics, changed by Chopin in the penultimate stage of proofreading of FE (→GE). In addition to moving this indication, Chopin probably added a long accent at the beginning of b. 132, emphasising the moment from which the diminuendo should begin.
