A long accent in A (→GE2) and FE

A short accent in GE1 and EE

The accent over a1 is doubtless a long one in A; this is testified by the change made in GE2 (probably after a repeated analysis of A). The sign in FE is not quite clear, yet it resembles a long accent more than a short one. In spite of that, EE has a short accent over the note in question.
