  b. 32-33

In FCI, in the bottom R.H. voice the e1-b1 fifth is repeated until the end of b. 33. According to us, as was the case with the changes to the length of the phrase and to the top voice rhythm (see the notes above), it is also this harmonic version that deviates too much from the final shape of this section and cannot be considered an independent variant.
