  b. 686-687

No markings in A (→FE→EE)

Two-bar pedalling in FC (→GE1)

One-bar pedalling in GE2 (→GE3)

These bars are an exact repetition of b. 235-236, and the Chopinesque pedalling written there in FC (→GE1) is most probably inaccurate. Therefore, in the main text we suggest the markings given by Chopin in analogous b. 103-104. Such a revision was introduced already in GE2 (→GE3).
