  b. 3-4

In A one can see that three accidentals were crossed out; it seems that Chopin wrote them "just in case." Afterwards, it turned out that they were superfluous – the  before the penultimate note in b. 3 and the flats before d3 and g2 in b. 4. (We give the  before a3 in our transcriptions due to the division of the bar between the lines.)
