In CGS the marks were written very inaccurately – by the end of each of the semiquaver groups. Moreover, the first mark was also omitted. It was most probably related to the lack of space under the bottom stave due to the low-placed beams (except for GE, in the sources the semiquaver stems are pointing downwards). It seems that the copyist cared more about an aesthetic entry in an album than about the precise placement of indications, which she could have considered obvious. category imprint: Differences between sources |

The missing mark in FC (→GE) is almost certainly a result of an oversight of the copyist. The omission of the mark in CGS is most probably of a similar nature. The addition of the mark in b. 26 must be a revision of EE, quite frequent in Chopinesque first editions – cf., e.g. the Prelude in C Major, No. 1. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , No pedal release mark , Errors of FC |
