The type of accents used in FE at the beginning of bars 162 and 165 is unclear – both marks are clearly shorter than the undoubtedly long accents on the 3rd beat of these bars; however, they are longer than the accents in, e.g. bars 175-176. We assume that local relationships are of a greater importance and we reproduce the accents as short ones. In GE1 (→GE2), the mark in bar 162 is shorter than the one in bar 165, yet it is still shorter than the accents in the second halves of the bars.
