  b. 692-707

No indication in A

cresc. - - in bars 692-707 in FC & GE2 (→GE3)

cresc. - - in bars 693-707 in FE (→EE)

cresc. - - in bars 692-696 in GE1

In the main text we give the indication cresc. - - - written by Chopin in FC (see the note to b. 65-66) The composer added crescendo in this fragment also in the proofreading of FE (→EE); however, he began it a bar later. That version, most probably later, can be considered equivalent. GE1 reproduced the indication of FC inaccurately, since from b. 697 it overlooked the dashes marking the range of cresc. That oversight was corrected in GE2 (→GE3).
See also b. 708.
