  b. 12-13

In As one can see crossings-out in the R.H. part. In b. 12 the tied f1 note was probably a semibreve at first, inserted – in accordance with the Chopinesque practice – more or less in the middle of the bar. Chopin then added a minim stem to the note and a rest later in the bar; eventually, he moved the minim to the beginning of the bar.
B. 13 was initially filled with an a1 semibreve, which Chopin then crossed out; however, he did not insert a rest instead of it.
