Like in the remaining places in which the dotted rhythm and a triplet are juxtaposed, in the main text we give the notation of A. FC reproduced it inaccurately, yet it kept the synchronization of semiquavers; in turn, the notation of the editions is contrary to the convention used by Chopin. Exceptionally in this bar, in FE b, the last semiquaver, comes into contact with the bottom-voice a (probably due to lack of space), which suggests that they are to be played simultaneously, and moreover, in two teaching copies, on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th beats, we can see added dashes indicating a simultaneous performance of the semiquaver with the last quaver of the triplet. Consequently, the notation of the last three beats of that bar is equivalent to the notation of FC in those copies.
