Accents in FCI

No marks in A (→FCGE, →FEEE)

The accents at the beginning of these bars are an element of an earlier version of the performance indications of the Prelude, in which Chopin marked much more dynamic details than in the version prepared for print. A similar situation can be observed in b. 20 and 22.
