As is devoid of the tempo indication and all further performance indications, which is related to the fact that this manuscript remained unfinished. Therefore, we do not regard those shortcomings as variants and – if an indication is present in the remaining sources – we do not record it in separate notes. In A one can see a crossing-out of an earlier indication, most probably Lento. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A |

As in the case of enhancement of the 1st quaver of the bar with an octave, the version of As was also present in A, in which, however, Chopin changed it by adding three a1 as the topmost notes. The change was introduced after the slur over the chords had been written, hence most probably in the last stage of proofreading of the manuscript. category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Corrections in A , Accompaniment changes |

In A one can see a crossed-out long accent over the e1 minim. According to us, it is likely that the mark was replaced by a hairpin (cf. the Prelude No. 3 in G Major, b. 17-18). category imprint: Corrections & alterations; Source & stylistic information issues: Corrections in A , Deletions in A |
