A more probable reading of A |
  |
The notation of A is not clear: the sign out after looks like a long accent and, due to very disorderly arrangements of the R.H. notes, it reaches up to the 5th semiquaver with its right end. In such a situation it is not surprising that in GE (→FE→EE) it was interpreted as .
An argument against associating the length and the musical sense of the discussed sign with the semiquavers written above it in A is the appearance of the combination of and evident accents in the neighbouring bars 42 & 44, especially in the twin bar 42, where the accent is only slightly shorter than the one discussed here.
