Similarly as in b. 53-54, of which the discussed bars are a literal repetition, in the main text we suggest a [] mark, closing the pedal from the beginning of b. 197. The  asterisk was also added in EE.

b. 201

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

Run begins with b2 in FE (→GE)

Run begins with g2 in EE

Just like in b. 57, the version of EE is most probably the initial one, changed in FE (→GE) in the last stage of proofreading, yet a revision of EE cannot be entirely ruled out.

b. 201

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

Just like in b. 57, we consider the missing slur over the accompanying L.H. figure to be Chopin's oversight. The slur was also added in EE. See the next note.

b. 203-204

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

Just like in b. 59-60, EE are lacking in both flats lowering d2 to d2 and in the cautionary  before d3. Chopin added all three accidentals only just in the last stage of proofreading of FE (→GE); they are also in EE2.

b. 206

composition: Op. 22, Polonaise

..

Like in b. 62, of which this bar is a literal repetition, there are no accidentals before the 1st, 3rd and 6th notes under the octave sign in FE (→GE1). In the main text we add respective accidentals –  of e3,  of f3 and  of d3. The first two were also added in EE, while in GE2 (→GE3) – only the first one.
