 in GE (→FEEE)

In AI the  mark is placed before the rest on the 3rd beat, and in A at the end of the bar. Although the notation of A leaves no doubt as to Chopin's intention GE (→FEEE) printed earlier, under the rest on the 3rd beat (Cf. note to bar 2). In our main text we rely on A, however, in the editors' opinion the pedalling of both autographs may be regarded here as alternative.
