In FE, in the majority of 24 bars of this section, the trilled crotchet is provided with an accent (in bars 621-625, 627-629, 631-634 and 636-637, 14 in total). The markings in the last 7 bars were most probably overlooked – these are the last two lines of text on a page. Taking into account the fact that an accent is undoubtedly one of the elements defining the characteristic and regularly repeated rhythmic scheme in this place, we consider also the three remaining oversights to be inaccuracies of notation and we add accents in all bars. The remaining editions added marks, but it was only GE3 that added them in all bars. See notes to bars 626-635, 638-640 and 641-644.
Two out of the accents in FE are long (bar 624 and 629). A few can be interpreted as short or long (bar 625 and 633-637). The remaining seven are short, hence in the main text we unify the notation by giving short accents in all places.
