EE1 features the initial version of the 6th semiquaver, changed in the penultimate stage of proofreading of FE (→GE). The changes of the correction performed on the plate are clearly visible in FE. In addition, the changed note (b1) was provided with a cautionary , which we omit in the main text, since it is superfluous in this context. The accidental was also removed in GE; it is also absent in EE2, in which the corrected note was introduced probably on the basis of GE1. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: EE revisions , GE revisions , Cautionary accidentals , Authentic corrections of FE , Main-line changes |

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. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Authentic corrections of FE |

A long accent could have been added in the penultimate stage of proofreading of FE; it is indicated by the absence of the mark in EE along with the shift of dim. – see the previous note. In GE the mark was almost certainly erroneously interpreted as a hairpin. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Long accents , Inaccuracies in GE , Authentic corrections of FE |

The absence of a mordent both in EE and GE suggests that we are dealing with an oversight of the engraver of FE, which made its way to these editions; however, in FE it was corrected in the last stage of proofreading. In the main text we add an accidental – often omitted by Chopin in such situations – specifying the pitch of the mordent's top note. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Accidentals in different octaves , Inaccuracies in FE , Authentic corrections of FE |
