In AF the accent in this bar is shorter than in the next ones. A comparison with AI shows that it is almost certainly an inaccuracy, which, however, could have influenced the interpretation of this and next marks in FE (→EE). GE also features a short accent, which does not have to mean that the notation of [AG] was also ambiguous. The issue of placement of this mark, between the staves, is slightly more difficult, and we discuss it in more detail in the next bars. In this bar we place the mark in the main text in the middle, in accordance with AI.
