In the sequence led in parallel sixths, the accidentals on the 2nd and 3rd beats of the bar (until the b2-g3 crotchet) are written in the sources as if it constituted a separate bar and as if the L.H. were significantly or totally written on a separate (bottom) stave:
- in FE, accidentals are present before each note of the R.H., including the first g1, as well as before seven notes in the L.H. – from b to g1 and b1;
- GE repeated all accidentals present in FE except for the before the first b in the L.H.; moreover, accidentals were added before the 2nd part of the undecuplet in the L.H., from c2 to a2;
- EE provided each note in both hands with accidentals.
We base the main text on the notation of FE, removing three least justified, according to us, cautionary accidentals – the before g1 in the R.H. and the naturals before b and b1 in the L.H.
