Wedge in A1

Dot in CJ, probable reading

No mark in CK (→CB) & EL

The mark written over the c2 crotchet in CJ is not such a typical staccato dot as, e.g. the ones in b. 51, but Ludwika (the copyist) was not very careful in this respect – cf., e.g. the marks that are certainly dots, in b. 30 and 52. Therefore, in the main text we adopt the dot both as the text of CJ and in the main text.
